Isaiah, 6

New Jerusalem Bible

1 In the year of King Uzziah's death I saw the Lord seated on a high and lofty throne; his train filled the sanctuary.

2 Above him stood seraphs, each one with six wings: two to cover its face, two to cover its feet and two for flying;

3 and they were shouting these words to each other: Holy, holy, holy is Yahweh Sabaoth. His glory fills the whole earth.

4 The door-posts shook at the sound of their shouting, and the Temple was full of smoke.

5 Then I said: 'Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, Yahweh Sabaoth.'

6 Then one of the seraphs flew to me, holding in its hand a live coal which it had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs.

7 With this it touched my mouth and said: 'Look, this has touched your lips, your guilt has been removed and your sin forgiven.'

8 I then heard the voice of the Lord saying: 'Whom shall I send? Who will go for us?' And I said, 'Here am I, send me.'

9 He said: 'Go, and say to this people, "Listen and listen, but never understand! Look and look, but never perceive!"

10 Make this people's heart coarse, make their ears dull, shut their eyes tight, or they will use their eyes to see, use their ears to hear, use their heart to understand, and change their ways and be healed.'

11 I then said, 'Until when, Lord?' He replied, 'Until towns are in ruins and deserted, houses untenanted and a great desolation reigns in the land,

12 and Yahweh has driven the people away and the country is totally abandoned.

13 And suppose one-tenth of them are left in it, that will be stripped again, like the terebinth, like the oak, cut back to the stock; their stock is a holy seed.'




Versículos relacionados com Isaiah, 6:

Isaiah 6 describes the vision that the prophet Isaiah had of the Lord, sitting on his throne, surrounded by Serafins who cried "holy, holy, holy." Isaiah was confronted with the holiness of God and his own sinfulness, but was purified and commissioned to proclaim God's message to the people. Below are five verses related to the topics addressed in Isaiah 6:

Proverbs 1:7: "The fear of the Lord is the principle of knowledge; the madmen despise wisdom and instruction." This verse talks about the importance of fear of God and how fundamental to our understanding and wisdom. Isaiah 6 clearly portrays God's holiness and the appropriate reaction to his presence.

Romans 3:23-24: "For all have sinned and deprived are of the glory of God, being justified free of charge by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus." Here we see that all have sinned and are separated from the glory of God, but the grace of God in Christ Jesus justifies us and reconciles us with Him. Isaiah 6 shows how God's holiness exposes our sinfulness and how we need to be cleansed to get closer to it.

1 Peter 1:15-16: "But as Holy is he who has called you, thirst for you also saints in all your way of living; for it is written: thirst, because I am holy." Peter is quoting Leviticus 11:44-45, where God calls his people to be holy because He is holy. Isaiah 6 shows God's holiness and the need to be purified to be in His presence.

John 12:41: "Isaiah said this because he saw his glory and spoke of him." Here we see that Isaiah 6 is quoted as the source of a prophecy about Jesus. Isaiah saw the glory of God in his holiness, and this view commissioned him to speak in the name of God. Jesus, the Son of God, is the embodiment of the glory of God.

Revelation 4:8: "And the four living beings had, each of them, six wings, and to the surrounding, and inside, they were full of eyes; and have no rest of day or night, proclaiming: Holy, holy Holy, Holy It is the Lord God, the Almighty, He who was, who is and who must come. " This verse describes a scene very similar to Isaiah's vision in Isaiah 6. Living beings proclaim God's holiness and recognize His sovereignty.
