Isaiah 28:23

WEB

Give ear, and hear my voice! Listen, and hear my speech!

KJV

Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.

Commentary

Give ye ear, and hear my voice,.... So said the prophet, as the Targum introdu ces the words; and because what he was about to say was of importance, and delivered in a parabolical manner, and required attention, he makes use of a variety of words to the same purpose, to engage their attention: hearken, and hear my speech; now about to be made; listen to it, and get the understanding of it.
