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.
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.
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.
4 And the lintels of the doors were moved at the voice of him that cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
12 And the Lord shall remove men far away, and she shall be multiplied that was left in the midst of the earth.
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.

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."

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."

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."

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.
