He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Do not fear to go down to Egypt, for there I will make you a great nation.
4 jeg vil selv drage med dig til Ægypten, og jeg vil også føre dig tilbage, og Josef skal lukke dine Øjne!"
I will go down with you into Egypt, and I will surely bring you up again and Joseph will close your eyes with his own hand.”
