Isaiah sees the Lord—Isaiah's sins are forgiven—He is called to prophesy—He prophesies of the rejection by the Jews of Christ's teachings—A remnant will return—Compare Isaiah 6. About 559–545 B.C.
a
In
the
b
year
that
king
Uzziah
died,
I
c
saw
also
the
Lord
sitting
upon
a
throne,
high
and
lifted
up,
and
his
train
filled
the
temple.
2 Above
it
stood
the
a
seraphim;
each
one
had
six
wings;
with
twain
he
covered
his
face,
and
with
twain
he
covered
his
feet,
and
with
twain
he
did
fly.
3 And
one
cried
unto
another,
and
said:
Holy,
holy,
holy,
is
the
Lord
of
Hosts;
the
whole
earth
is
full
of
his
a
glory.
4 And
the
posts
of
the
door
moved
at
the
voice
of
him
that
cried,
and
the
house
was
filled
with
smoke.
5 Then
said
I:
Wo
is
unto
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
mine
eyes
have
a
seen
the
King,
the
Lord
of
Hosts.
6 Then
flew
one
of
the
seraphim
unto
me,
having
a
live
coal
in
his
hand,
which
he
had
taken
with
the
tongs
from
off
the
altar;
7 And
he
laid
it
upon
my
mouth,
and
said:
Lo,
this
has
touched
thy
lips;
and
thine
a
iniquity
is
taken
away,
and
thy
sin
purged.
8 Also
I
heard
the
voice
of
the
Lord,
saying:
a
Whom
shall
I
send,
and
who
will
go
for
us?
Then
I
said:
Here
am
I;
send
me.
9 And
he
said:
Go
and
tell
this
people—Hear
ye
indeed,
but
they
understood
not;
and
see
ye
indeed,
but
they
perceived
not.
10 Make
the
heart
of
this
people
fat,
and
make
their
ears
heavy,
and
shut
their
eyes—lest
they
see
with
their
eyes,
and
a
hear
with
their
ears,
and
understand
with
their
b
heart,
and
be
converted
and
be
healed.
11 Then
said
I:
Lord,
how
long?
And
he
said:
Until
the
cities
be
wasted
without
inhabitant,
and
the
houses
without
man,
and
the
land
be
utterly
desolate;
12 And
the
Lord
have
a
removed
men
far
away,
for
there
shall
be
a
great
forsaking
in
the
midst
of
the
land.
13 But
yet
there
shall
be
a
tenth,
and
they
shall
return,
and
shall
be
eaten,
as
a
teil
tree,
and
as
an
oak
whose
substance
is
in
them
when
they
cast
their
leaves;
so
the
a
holy
seed
shall
be
the
substance
thereof.
