The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Interrogate quemlibet de viatoribus, et hæc eadem illum intelligere cognoscetis :
Septuagint (Swete)
ἐρωτήσατε παραπορευομένους ὁδόν, καὶ τὰ σημεῖα αὐτῶν οὐκ ἀπαλλοτριώσετε·
Hebrew (WLC)
הֲלֹ֣א שְׁ֭אֶלְתֶּם ע֣וֹבְרֵי דָ֑רֶךְ וְ֝אֹתֹתָ֗ם לֹ֣א תְנַכֵּֽרוּ

Haydock's commentary

Way. Travellers, who have seen foreign countries, (Vatable) or any one that may be passing, (Sanchez) will answer this objection (Haydock) in my favour. (Menochius)

They will all agree in testifying that the wicked prosper, even for a long time. (Calmet)
