And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.
Before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear. Contrast Isaiah 64:7, "none ... calleth," etc.; and note, Isaiah 65:12, 'I called, ye did not answer.' Maurer translates, 'They shall hardly (literally, not yet) call when (literally, and) I will answer; they shall be still speaking when I will hear' (Psalms 32:5; Daniel 9:20-21 ).
