YESHAYAHU 6

1 In the year that Sovereign Uzziyahu died, I saw 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 sitting on a throne, high and lifted up, and the train of His robe filled the Hĕyḵal. 2 Above it stood seraphim. Each one had six wings: with two he covered his face, with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one cried to another and said, \"Qodesh, qodesh, qodesh is 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts; all the earth is filled with His esteem!\" 4 And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, and the house was filled with smoke. 5 And I said, \"Woe to me, for I am undone! Because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips - for my eyes have seen the Sovereign, 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts.\" 6 And one of the seraphim flew to me, having in his hand a live coal which he had taken with the tongs from the altar. 7 And he touched my mouth with it, and said, \"See, this has touched your lips; your wickedness is taken away, and your sin is covered.\" 8 And I heard the voice of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, saying, \"Whom do I send, and who would go for Us?\" And I said, \"Here am I! Send me.\" 9 And He said, \"Go, and you shall say to this people, 'Hearing, you hear, but do not understand; and seeing, you see, but do not know.' 10 \"Make the heart of this people fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and shall turn and be healed.\" 11 Then I said, “𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄, until when?\" And He answered, \"Until the cities are laid waste and without inhabitant, and the houses are without a man, and the land is laid waste, a ruin, 12 and 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 has removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land. 13 \"But still, there is a tenth part in it, and it shall again be for a burning, like a terebinth tree and like an oak, whose stump remains when it is cut down. The qodesh seed is its stump!\"
