Almost every other English version credits Isaiah with the quotes in verse two and verse three. He did write was was quoted in verse three, but it was Malachi who said what was quoted here in verse two. That is an outright error in the other versions.
The Alexandrian manuscripts (that the modern versions follow, rather than the Textus Receptus behind the KJB) don't stop there.
Matt 13:35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
When we approach the reading of Aleph we discover that it reads, "dia Hsaiou tou profhtou" or "by Isaiah the prophet". The fact is Matthew is quoting Psalm 78:2, which is a Psalm of Asaph and not of Isaiah.
Oops!
Of course the MVs know this is a mistake they cannot explain even by wresting scripture, so they make the appropriate 'correction' in their English versions. All this does is indicate that the MVs don't even translate their own underlying texts accurately. Of course if they did, they'd also have to include such blasphemy as having the soldier kill Jesus rather than Him giving up His life willingly, death being swallowed up in controversy instead of victory, and Jesus praying for His disciples to be put under the power of Satan, in addition to this blunder.
