1. In the year King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a high and lofty throne. The bottom of his robe filled the temple.
2. Angels were standing above him. Each had six wings: With two they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew.
3. They called to each other and said,“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Armies!The whole earth is filled with his glory.”
4. Their voices shook the foundations of the doorposts, and the temple filled with smoke.
5. So I said, “Oh, no!I’m doomed.Every word that passes through my lips is sinful.I live among people with sinful lips.I have seen the king, the Lord of Armies!”
6. Then one of the angels flew to me. In his hand was a burning coal that he had taken from the altar with tongs.
