The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Sibilabo eis, et congregabo illos, quia redemi eos : et multiplicabo eos sicut ante fuerant multiplicati.
Septuagint (Swete)
σημανῶ αὐτοῖς καὶ εἰσδέξομαι αὐτούς, διότι λυτρώσομαι αὐτούς, καὶ πληθυνθήσονται καθότι ἦσαν πολλοί·
Hebrew (WLC)
אֶשְׁרְקָ֥ה לָהֶ֛ם וַאֲקַבְּצֵ֖ם כִּ֣י פְדִיתִ֑ים וְרָב֖וּ כְּמ֥וֹ רָבֽוּ

Haydock's commentary

Whistle. Christians are sweetly drawn by inspirations, without clamorous words. (St. Cyril) (Worthington)

This expression shews the sovereign dominion of God. (Calmet)

Septuagint, "I will give them a sign." (Haydock)
