以賽亞書 6
1 當烏西雅王崩的那年，我見主坐在高高的寶座上。他的衣裳垂下，遮滿聖殿。
In the year that king Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple.
2 其上有撒拉弗侍立，各有六個翅膀：用兩個翅膀遮臉，兩個翅膀遮腳，兩個翅膀飛翔；
Above him stood the 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 彼此呼喊說： 聖哉！聖哉！聖哉！萬軍之耶和華； 他的榮光充滿全地！
And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
4 因呼喊者的聲音，門檻的根基震動，殿充滿了煙雲。
And the foundations of the thresholds were moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
5 那時我說：「禍哉！我滅亡了！因為我是嘴唇不潔的人，又住在嘴唇不潔的民中，又因我眼見大君王－萬軍之耶和華。」
Then said I, Woe is 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 seen the King, the LORD of hosts.
6 有一撒拉弗飛到我跟前，手裏拿着紅炭，是用火剪從壇上取下來的，
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 將炭沾我的口，說：「看哪，這炭沾了你的嘴，你的罪孽便除掉，你的罪惡就赦免了。」
and he touched my mouth with it, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged.
8 我又聽見主的聲音說：「我可以差遣誰呢？誰肯為我們去呢？」我說：「我在這裏，請差遣我！」
And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I said, Here am I; send me.
9 他說：「你去告訴這百姓說： 你們聽是要聽見，卻不明白； 看是要看見，卻不曉得。
And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 要使這百姓心蒙脂油， 耳朵發沉， 眼睛昏迷； 恐怕眼睛看見， 耳朵聽見， 心裏明白， 回轉過來，便得醫治。」
Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn again, and be healed.
11 我就說：「主啊，這到幾時為止呢？」他說： 直到城邑荒涼，無人居住， 房屋空閒無人，地土極其荒涼。
Then said I, Lord, how long? And he answered, Until cities be waste without inhabitant, and houses without man, and the land become utterly waste,
12 並且耶和華將人遷到遠方， 在這境內撇下的地土很多。
and the LORD have removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
13 境內剩下的人若還有十分之一， 也必被吞滅， 像栗樹、橡樹雖被砍伐， 樹墩子卻仍存留。 這聖潔的種類在國中也是如此。
And if there be yet a tenth in it, it shall again be eaten up: as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remaineth, when they are felled; so the holy seed is the stock thereof.
