Isaiah 5:27

None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:

KJV

Non est deficiens neque laborans in eo ; non dormitabit, neque dormiet ; neque solvetur cingulum renum ejus, nec rumpetur corrigia calceamenti ejus.

Vulgate

οὐ πεινάσουσιν οὐδὲ κοπιάσουσιν οὐδὲ νυστάξουσιν οὐδὲ κοιμηθήσονται, οὐδὲ λύσουσιν τὰς ζώνας αὐτῶν ἀπὸ τῆς ὀσφύος αὐτῶν, οὐδὲ μὴ ῥαγῶσιν οἱ ἱμάντες τῶν ὑποδημάτων αὐτῶν·

LXX

None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:

ASV

אֵין עָיֵ֤ף וְ/אֵין כּוֹשֵׁל֙ בּ֔/וֹ לֹ֥א יָנ֖וּם וְ/לֹ֣א יִישָׁ֑ן וְ/לֹ֤א נִפְתַּח֙ אֵז֣וֹר חֲלָצָ֔י/ו וְ/לֹ֥א נִתַּ֖ק שְׂר֥וֹךְ נְעָלָֽי/ו
