Isaiæ 6

Bibbia Vulgata Clementina	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
¹ In anno quo mortuus est rex Ozias, vidi Dominum sedentem super solium excelsum et elevatum ; et ea quæ sub ipso erant replebant templum.	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.
² Seraphim stabant super illud : sex alæ uni, et sex alæ alteri ; duabus velabant faciem ejus, et duabus velabant pedes ejus, et duabus volabant.	² Above him stood the seraphim; each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew.
³ Et clamabant alter ad alterum, et dicebant : Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus Dominus, Deus exercituum ; plena est omnis terra gloria ejus.	³ And one called to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory."
⁴ Et commota sunt superliminaria cardinum a voce clamantis, et domus repleta est fumo.	⁴ And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who called, and the house was filled with smoke.
⁵ 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.	⁵ And I said: "Woe is me! For I am lost; for I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts!"
⁶ Et volavit ad me unus de seraphim, et in manu ejus calculus, quem forcipe tulerat de altari,	⁶ Then flew one of the seraphim to me, having in his hand a burning coal which he had taken with tongs from the altar.
⁷ et tetigit os meum, et dixit : Ecce tetigit hoc labia tua, et auferetur iniquitas tua, et peccatum tuum mundabitur.	⁷ And he touched my mouth, and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin forgiven."
⁸ Et audivi vocem Domini dicentis : Quem mittam ? et quis ibit nobis ? Et dixi : Ecce ego, mitte me.	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."
⁹ Et dixit : Vade, et dices populo huic : Audite audientes, et nolite intelligere ; et videte visionem, et nolite cognoscere.	⁹ And he said, "Go, and say to this people: 'Hear and hear, but do not understand; see and see, but do not perceive.'
¹⁰ 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.	¹⁰ Make the heart of this people fat, and their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed."
¹¹ Et dixi : Usquequo, Domine ? Et dixit : Donec desolentur civitates absque habitatore, et domus sine homine, et terra relinquetur deserta.	¹¹ Then I said, "How long, O Lord?" And he said: "Until cities lie waste without inhabitant, and houses without men, and the land is utterly desolate,
¹² Et longe faciet Dominus homines, et multiplicabitur quæ derelicta fuerat in medio terræ.	¹² and the LORD removes men far away, and the forsaken places are many in the midst of the land.
¹³ 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.	¹³ And though a tenth remain in it, it will be burned again, like a terebinth or an oak, whose stump remains standing when it is felled." The holy seed is its stump.
