Isaiah 6:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ “How terrible it is for me!” I cried out. “I’m about to be destroyed! My mouth speaks sinful words. And I live among people who speak sinful words. Now I have seen the King with my own eyes. He is the Lord who rules over all.”

⁶ A seraph flew over to me. He was holding a hot coal. He had used tongs to take it from the altar. ⁷ He touched my mouth with the coal. He said, “This has touched your lips. Your guilt has been taken away. Your sin has been paid for.”
