And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went out to redeem to be a people for himself, to make a name for yourself by great and awesome deeds, by driving out from before your people, whom you redeemed out of Egypt, a nation and its gods?

22 Nangman Israel mite chu nangma mite dih tah mong in nana lheng doh in Pakai nangma chu a Pathen u nahitan ahi,

And you made your people Israel for yourself to be your people forever; and you, LORD, became their God.
