Isaiah 6
1 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.
In anno quo mortuus est rex Ozias, vidi Dominum sedentem super solium excelsum et elevatum; et ea quæ sub ipso erant replebant templum.
2 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.
Seraphim stabant super illud: sex alæ uni, et sex alæ alteri; duabus velabant faciem ejus, et duabus velabant pedes ejus, et duabus volabant.
3 And one called unto another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.
Et clamabant alter ad alterum, et dicebant: [Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus Dominus, Deus exercituum; plena est omnis terra gloria ejus.]
4 And the posts of the door were moved at the voice of them that called, and the house was filled with smoke.
Et commota sunt superliminaria cardinum a voce clamantis, et domus repleta est fumo.
5 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.
Et dixi: [Væ mihi, quia tacui, quia vir pollutus labiis ego sum, et in medio populi polluta labia habentis ego habito, et regem Dominum exercituum vidi oculis meis.]
6 Then flew unto me one of the seraphim, with a glowing stone in his hand, which he had taken with the tongs from off the altar;
Et volavit ad me unus de seraphim, et in manu ejus calculus, quem forcipe tulerat de altari,
7 and he touched my mouth with it, and said: Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin expiated.
et tetigit os meum, et dixit: [Ecce tetigit hoc labia tua, et auferetur iniquitas tua, et peccatum tuum mundabitur.]
8 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.'
Et audivi vocem Domini dicentis: [Quem mittam? et quis ibit nobis?] Et dixi: [Ecce ego, mitte me.]
9 And He said: 'Go, and tell this people: hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
Et dixit: [Vade, et dices populo huic: Audite audientes, et nolite intelligere; et videte visionem, et nolite cognoscere.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they, seeing with their eyes, and hearing with their ears, and understanding with their heart, return, and be healed.'
Excæca cor populi hujus, et aures ejus aggrava, et oculos ejus claude: ne forte videat oculis suis, et auribus suis audiat, et corde suo intelligat, et convertatur, et sanem eum.]
11 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,
Et dixi: [Usquequo, Domine?] Et dixit: [Donec desolentur civitates absque habitatore, et domus sine homine, et terra relinquetur deserta.
12 And the LORD have removed men far away, and the forsaken places be many in the midst of the land.
Et longe faciet Dominus homines, et multiplicabitur quæ derelicta fuerat in medio terræ.
13 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 cast their leaves, so the holy seed shall be the stock thereof.'
Et adhuc in ea decimatio, et convertetur, et erit in ostensionem sicut terebinthus, et sicut quercus quæ expandit ramos suos; semen sanctum erit id quod steterit in ea.]
