Isaiah 48:7

They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.

KJV

Nunc creata sunt et non ex tunc ; et ante diem, et non audisti ea, ne forte dicas : Ecce ego cognovi ea.

Vulgate

Νῦν γίνεται καὶ οὐ πάλαι, καὶ οὐ προτέραις ἡμέραις ἤκουσας αὐτά· μὴ εἴπῃς Ναί, γινώσκω αὐτά.

LXX

They are created now, and not from of old; and before this day thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
