Isaias 48:8
Thou hast neither heard, nor known, neither was thy ear opened of old. For I know that transgressing thou wilt transgress, and I have called thee a transgressor from the womb.

- Vulgate (Clementine)
- Neque audisti, neque cognovisti, neque ex tunc aperta est auris tua : scio enim quia prævaricans prævaricaberis, et transgressorem ex utero vocavi te.
- Septuagint (Swete)
- οὔτε ἔγνως οὔτε ἠπίστω, οὔτε ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς ἤνοιξά σου τὰ ὦτα· ἔγνων γὰρ ὅτι ἀθετῶν ἀθετήσεις, καὶ ἄνομος μος ἔτι ἐκ κοιλίας κληθήσῃ.
- Hebrew (WLC)
- גַּ֣ם לֹֽא שָׁמַ֗עְתָּ גַּ֚ם לֹ֣א יָדַ֔עְתָּ גַּ֕ם מֵאָ֖ז לֹא פִתְּחָ֣ה אָזְנֶ֑ךָ כִּ֤י יָדַ֨עְתִּי֙ בָּג֣וֹד תִּבְגּ֔וֹד וּפֹשֵׁ֥עַ מִבֶּ֖טֶן קֹ֥רָא לָֽךְ
Haydock's commentary
Opened; docile, (Theodoret) or acquainted with these things. Isaias first made known the captivity of Babylon, and its end; and he insists so much, that people may discern the truth of his predictions, and of religion. No atheist can, with a good conscience, hold out against his arguments, chap. xl., &c.
