Isaiæ 6
1 In anno quo mortuus est rex Ozias, vidi Dominum sedentem super solium excelsum et elevatum; et ea quæ sub ipso erant replebant templum.
In the yeere of the death of King Vzziah, I saw also the Lord sitting vpon an high throne, and lifted vp, and the lower partes thereof 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.
The Seraphims stoode vpon it: euery one had sixe wings: with twaine he couered his face, and with twaine hee couered his feete, and with twaine he did flie.
3 Et clamabant alter ad alterum, et dicebant: [Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus Dominus, Deus exercituum; plena est omnis terra gloria ejus.]
And one cryed to another, and sayde, Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hostes: the whole world is full of his glory.
4 Et commota sunt superliminaria cardinum a voce clamantis, et domus repleta est fumo.
And the lintles of the doore cheekes moued at the voyce of him that cryed, 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.]
Then I sayd, Wo is me: for I am vndone, because I am a man of polluted lips, and I dwell in the middes of a people of polluted lips: for mine eyes haue seene the King and Lord of hostes.
6 Et volavit ad me unus de seraphim, et in manu ejus calculus, quem forcipe tulerat de altari,
Then flewe one of the Seraphims vnto me with an hote cole in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with the tongs:
7 et tetigit os meum, et dixit: [Ecce tetigit hoc labia tua, et auferetur iniquitas tua, et peccatum tuum mundabitur.]
And he touched my mouth, and sayd, Loe, this hath touched thy lips, and thine iniquitie shall be taken away, and thy sinne shalbe purged.
8 Et audivi vocem Domini dicentis: [Quem mittam? et quis ibit nobis?] Et dixi: [Ecce ego, mitte me.]
Also I heard the voyce of the Lord, saying, Whome shall I send? and who shall goe for vs? Then I sayd, Here am I, send me.
9 Et dixit: [Vade, et dices populo huic: Audite audientes, et nolite intelligere; et videte visionem, et nolite cognoscere.
And he sayd, Goe, and say vnto this people, Ye shall heare in deede, but ye shall not vnderstand: ye shall plainely see, and not perceiue.
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.]
Make the heart of this people fatte, make their eares heauie, and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their hearts, and conuert, and he heale them.
11 Et dixi: [Usquequo, Domine?] Et dixit: [Donec desolentur civitates absque habitatore, et domus sine homine, et terra relinquetur deserta.
Then sayd I, Lord, howe long? And he answered, Vntill the cities be wasted without inhabitant, and the houses without man, and the land be vtterly desolate,
12 Et longe faciet Dominus homines, et multiplicabitur quæ derelicta fuerat in medio terræ.
And the Lord haue remoued men farre away, and there be a great desolation in the mids 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.]
But yet in it shalbe a tenth, and shall returne, and shalbe eaten vp as an elme or an oke, which haue a substance in them, when they cast their leaues: so the holy seede shall be the substance thereof.
