In the year that aKing Uzziah died, bI saw in a vision the Lord sitting on a throne, high and exalted, with the train of His royal robe filling the most holy part of the temple. John 12:412 Kin 15:7; 2 Chr 26:23; Is 1:1John 12:41; Rev 4:2, 3; 20:11 2 Above Him seraphim stood; aeach one had six wings: with two wings he covered his face, with two wings he covered his feet, and with two wings he flew.Rev 4:8 3 And one called out to another, saying,“aHoly, Holy, Holy is the LORD of hosts;The bwhole earth is filled with His glory.”Rev 4:8Num 14:21; Ps 72:19 4 And the foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, and the atemple was filling with smoke.Rev 15:8 5 Then I said,“aWoe is me! For I am ruined,Because I am a man of ceremonially bunclean lips,And I live among a cpeople of unclean lips;For my eyes have seen the dKing, the LORD of hosts.”Ex 33:20; Luke 5:8Ex 6:12, 30Is 59:3; Jer 9:3-8Jer 51:57
6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the aaltar with tongs.Rev 8:3 7 He atouched my mouth with it and said, “Listen carefully, this has touched your lips; byour wickedness your sin, your injustice, your wrongdoing is taken away and your sin atoned for and forgiven.”Jer 1:9; Dan 10:16Is 40:2; 53:5, 6, 11; 1 John 1:7
8 Then I heard the avoice of the Lord, saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?” Then bI said, “Here am I. Send me!”Ezek 10:5; Acts 9:4Acts 26:19 9 And He said, “Go, and tell this people:‘aKeep on listening, but do not understand;Keep on looking, but do not comprehend.’Is 43:8; Matt 13:14; Mark 4:12; Luke 8:10; John 12:40; Acts 28:26; Rom 11:8
11 Then I said, “Lord, ahow long?” And He answered,“Until bcities are devastated and without inhabitant,And houses are without peopleAnd the land is utterly desolate,Ps 79:5Lev 26:31; Is 1:7; 3:8, 26
