| 1 | In the year that king Ozias died, I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne high and elevated: and his train filled the temple. | In anno quo mortuus est rex Ozias, vidi Dominum sedentem super solium excelsum et elevatum; et ea quae sub ipso erant replebant templum. |
| 2 | Upon it stood the seraphims: the one had six wings, and the other had six wings: with two they covered his face, and with two they covered his feet, and with two they hew. | Seraphim stabant super illud: sex alae uni, et sex alae alteri; duabus velabant faciem eius, et duabus velabant pedes eius, et duabus volabant. |
| 3 | And they cried one to another, and said: Holy, holy, holy, the Lord God of hosts, all the earth is full of his glory. | Et clamabant alter ad alterum, et dicebant: Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus Dominus, Deus exercituum; plena est omnis terra gloria eius. |
| 4 | And the lintels of the doors were moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke. | Et commota sunt superliminaria cardinum a voce clamantis, et domus repleta est fumo. |
| 5 | And I said: Woe is me, because I have held my peace; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people that hath unclean lips, and I have seen with my eyes the King the Lord of hosts. | Et dixi: Vae 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 | And one of the seraphims flew to me, and in his hand was a live coal, which he had taken with the tongs off the altar. | Et volavit ad me unus de seraphim, et in manu eius calculus, quem forcipe tulerat de altari, |
| 7 | And he touched my mouth, and said: Behold this hath touched thy lips, and thy iniquities shall be taken away, and thy sin shall be cleansed. | 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 shall go for us? And I said: Lo, 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 thou shalt say to this people: Hearing, hear, and understand not: and see the vision, and know it not. | Et dixit: Vade, et dices populo huic: Audite audientes, et nolite intelligere; et videte visionem, et nolite cognoscere. |
| 10 | Blind the heart of this people, 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 be converted and I heal them. | Excaeca cor populi huius, et aures eius aggrava, et oculos eius claude: ne forte videat oculis suis, et auribus suis audiat, et corde suo intelligat, et convertatur, et sanem eum. |
| 11 | And I said: How long, O Lord? And he said: Until the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land shall be left desolate. | Et dixi: Usquequo, Domine? Et dixit: Donec desolentur civitates absque habitatore, et domus sine homine, et terra relinquetur deserta. |
| 12 | And the Lord shall remove men far away, and she shall be multiplied that was left in the midst of the earth. | Et longe faciet Dominus homines, et multiplicabitur quae derelicta fuerat in medio terrae. |
| 13 | And there shall be still a tithing therein, and she shall turn, and shall be made a show as a turpentine tree, and as an oak that spreadeth its branches: that which shall stand therein, shall be a holy seed. | Et adhuc in ea decimatio, et convertetur, et erit in ostensionem sicut terebinthus, et sicut quercus quae expandit ramos suos; semen sanctum erit id quod steterit in ea. |
