a“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
bThe whole earth is full of His glory!”
“Woe is me, for I am1 undone!
Because I am a man of aunclean lips,
And I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips;
For my eyes have seen the King,
The Lord of hosts.”
“Behold, this has touched your lips;
Your iniquity is taken away,
And your sin1 purged.”
“Whom shall I send,
And who will go for aUs?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
‘Keep on hearing, but do not understand;
Keep on seeing, but do not perceive.’
And their ears heavy,
And shut their eyes;
bLest they see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart,
And return and be healed.”
| << Isaiah 6:4 | Isaiah 6:6 >> |
