KJ
Isa 48:6 “heard, see”; MT shm’th chazh klh “you have heard, see all of
it” (often emended with chazut to read “you have heard the whole vision”)
|| Acts 22, 15, “thou hast
seen and heard”; cf Rev 1:19. (Book of Mormon Critical Text:
A Tool for Scholarly Reference, 3 vols. [Provo, Utah: Foundation for
Ancient Research and Mormon Studies, 1987], 1:120 n. 1027)
LXX
‘alla kai, which have been used separately in the KJV NT to mean “and”
& “that”, but have not been so used together; cf Ex 32:10, “them, and that
I”; Nm 22:6, “then, and that I” (Ibid., 120 n. 1029)
On this, the LXX of Isa 48:6 reads
