Seeing many things, but thou observest not; opening the ears, but he heareth not.

KJV

Qui vides multa, nonne custodies ? qui apertas habes aures, nonne audies ?

Vulgate

εἴδετε πλεονάκις, καὶ οὐκ ἐφυλάξασθε· ἠνοιγμένα τὰ ὦτα, καὶ οὐκ ἠκούσατε.

LXX

Thou seest many things, but thou observest not; his ears are open, but he heareth not.
