64:3 Note: KJB: Isa.64.4
OET (OET-RV) Since ancient times, no one has heard,

⇔ No eye has seen any god other than you,
⇔ → who takes action for those who wait, expecting his help.
Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns
לֹא שָׁמְע֖וּ
not (Some words not found in UHB: and,from,long_ago not heard not listened eye not seen ʼElohīm besides,you he/it_made/did for,[one_who]_waits_of to=him/it )
The pronoun they refers to people in general. It may be helpful to clarify this for your readers. Alternate translation: [people have not heard, people have not listened]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche
עַ֣יִן לֹֽא רָאָ֗תָה
eye not seen
Isaiah is using an eye to represent a whole person who sees. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression from your culture or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [no one has seen]
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
יַעֲשֶׂ֖ה לִמְחַכֵּה לֽוֹ
he/it_made/did for,[one_who]_waits_of to=him/it
Even though Isaiah is addressing God directly, he is speaking of him in the third person as he works for the one waiting for him to show respect. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this in a respectful form in the second person. Alternate translation: [you work for the one waiting for you]
