And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?

KJV

Cui ait Isaias : Hoc erit signum a Domino quod facturus sit Dominus sermonem quem locutus est : vis ut ascendat umbra decem lineis, an ut revertatur totidem gradibus ?

Vulgate

καὶ εἶπεν Ἠσαίας Τοῦτο τὸ σημεῖον παρὰ Κυρίου ὅτι ποιήσει Κύριος τὸν λόγον ὃν ἐλάλησεν· πορεύσεται ἡ σκιὰ δέκα βαθμούς, ἐὰν ἐπιστρέφῃ δέκα βαθμούς.

LXX

And Isaiah said, This shall be the sign unto thee from Jehovah, that Jehovah will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten steps, or go back ten steps?
