Isaias 6
1 Sa taon ng kamatayan ni Haring Uzias, nakita ko ang Panginoon na nakaupo sa isang trono; siya ay mataas at nakaangat; at ang laylayan ng kaniyang kasuotan ay bumalot sa templo.
In the year in which king Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, sublime and exalted, and the things that were under him filled the temple.
2 Nasa taas niya ang mga serapin, bawat isa ay mayroong anim na pakpak, dalawa ang nakatakip sa kaniyang mukha, at dalawa ang nakatakip sa kaniyang mga paa, at ang dalawa ay ginagamit niya sa paglipad.
The Seraphim were standing above the throne. One had six wings, and the other had six wings: with two they were covering his face, and with two they were covering his feet, and with two they were flying.
3 Bawat isa ay nagsasabi sa isa't isa, “Banal, banal, banal si Yahweh na pinuno ng mga hukbo! Puno ng kaniyang kaluwalhatian ang buong mundo.”
And they were crying out to one another, and saying: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God of hosts! All the earth is filled with his glory!”
4 Nayanig ang mga pinto at mga pundasyon sa mga tinig ng mga nananawagan, at napuno ng usok ang bahay.
And the lintels above the hinges were shaken at the voice of the one crying out. And the house was filled with smoke.
5 Pagkatapos sinabi ko, “Kaawa-awa ako! Mapapahamak ako dahil ako ay isang taong marumi ang labi, at namumuhay kasama ng mga taong marurumi ang mga labi, dahil nakita ng aking mga mata ang Hari, si Yahweh, si Yahweh na pinuno ng mga hukbo!”
And I said: “Woe to me! For I have remained silent. For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live in the midst of a people having unclean lips, and I have seen with my eyes the King, the Lord of hosts!”
6 Pagkatapos, isang serapin ang lumipad papalapit sa akin; mayroon siyang hawak na nagbabagang uling na kinuha niya gamit ang panipit mula sa altar.
And one of the Seraphim flew to me, and in his hand was a burning coal, which he had taken with tongs from the altar.
7 Idinampi niya ito sa aking bibig at sinabi, “Masdan mo, naidampi na ito sa iyong labi; ang iyong kasalanan ay nilinis at tinubos na.
And he touched my mouth, and he said, “Behold, this has touched your lips, and so your iniquities will be taken away, and your sin will be cleansed.”
8 Narinig ko ang tinig ng Panginoon na nagsasabing, “Sino ang aking isusugo? Sino ang magpapahayag para sa atin? Pagkatapos sinabi ko, “Narito ako; ako ang iyong isugo.”
And I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send?” and, “Who will go for us?” And I said: “Here I am. Send me.”
9 Sinabi niya, “Humayo ka at sabihin mo sa mga taong ito, makinig man kayo, hindi kayo makauunawa; tumingin man kayo, hindi kayo makakikita.
And he said: “Go forth! And you shall say to this people: ‘When you listen, you will hear and not understand. And when you see a vision, you will not comprehend.’
10 Patigasin mo ang puso ng mga taong ito, gawin mong bingi ang kanilang mga tainga, at bulagin mo ang kanilang mga mata para hindi sila makakita o hindi sila makarinig at hindi makaunawa ang kanilang mga puso, at manumbalik sila sa akin at sila ay gagaling.”
Blind the heart of this people. Make their ears heavy and close their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and then I would heal them.”
11 Pagkatapos sinabi ko, “Panginoon, hanggang kailan?” Sumagot siya, “Hanggang sa mawasak ang mga lungsod at mawalan ng naninirahan dito, at mawalan ng tao ang mga bahay, at nakatiwangwang ang lupain,
And I said, “For how long, O Lord?” And he said, “Until the cities are desolate, without an inhabitant, and the houses are without a man, and the land will be left behind, deserted.”
12 at hanggang ipatapon ni Yahweh ang ang mga tao palayo, at tuluyang mawalan ng pakinabang ang lupain.
For the Lord will take the men far away, and she who will have been left behind will be multiplied in the midst of the earth.
13 Manatili man ang ikasampung bahagi ng mga tao roon, muli itong wawasakin; gaya ng isang roble o owk na pinutol at naiwan ang katawan nito, ang banal na binhi naman ay nasa tuod na ito.”
But still, there will be a tithing within her, and she will be converted, and she will be put on display, like a terebinth tree and like an oak which extends its branches. And what will remain standing within her will be a holy offspring.
