3 And he said, I am God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation:
Te vaengah kai Pathen he, na pa kah Pathen ni. Egypt la na suntlak thuk te rhih boeh. Nang te pilnu la pahoi kan khueh bitni.
4 I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also surely bring thee up again: and Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes.
