Isaiah 48:12, 15.

3. with reference to a preceding sentence (which is often introduced by הֵן or הִנֵּה), yea, that...! i.e. how much more (or less) ! † Proverbs 11:31 lo, the righteous is recompensed in the earth וְחוֺטֵא רָשָׁע כִּי אַֹף 'tis indeed that (= how much more) the wicked and the sinner!
