Isaiah 6

KJ3 Literal Translation — Chapter 6 of 66

1 In the year that King Uzziah died, then I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up. And His train filled the temple.

3 And this one cried to this one and said, Holy, holy, holy is Jehovah of Hosts; all the earth is full of His glory!
