I prefer {paq vItlhobpu'}.  The word {ra'} means to command someone, I feel.

Also, I have determined and SuStel has backed this idea that {Dab} translates
as "live/reside/dwell in/at} and does not require a locative construction.
 Therefore, I say {Colorado vIDab}.  {Germany vIDabtaH} I also like very much
because I like the idea that {-taH} carries that the speaker continues to be
there, not just for an instant.
