I heard a message I did not understand: (GOD'S WORD®) KJV: This he ordained in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not. ASV: He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, When he went out over the land of Egypt, Where I heard a language that I knew not. BBE: He gave it to Joseph as a witness, when he went out over the land of Egypt; then the words of a strange tongue were sounding in my ears.

JPS: He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when He went forth against the land of Egypt.

WEB: He appointed it in Joseph for a testimony, when he went out over the land of Egypt, I heard a language that I didn't know.
