おまい surely should be おまえ. I'm not sure what's going on with なだから... my first thought was it should be のだから, but I don't think one would normally put の after a na-adjective. Maybe it's なのだから? Hmmmm...

As per other translations from other sources, it should have been a なんだから。And yes, should have been おまえ。ありがとうございます！
