Und da die Leute im Lande, die Kanaaniter, die Klage bei der Tenne Atad sahen, sprachen sie: Die Ägypter halten da große Klage. Daher heißt man den Ort: Der Ägypter Klage, welcher liegt jenseit des Jordans.
Y viendo los moradores de la tierra, los Cananeos, el llanto en la era de Atad, dijeron: Llanto grande es este de los Egipcios: por eso fue llamado su nombre Abelmizraim, que está a la otra parte del Jordán.
Les habitants du pays, les Cananéens, furent témoins de ce deuil dans l'aire d'Athad, et ils dirent: Voilà un grand deuil parmi les Egyptiens! C'est pourquoi l'on a donné le nom d'Abel-Mitsraïm à cette aire qui est au delà du Jourdain.
Or i Cananei, abitanti di quel paese, veggendo il cordoglio che si faceva nell’aia di Atad, dissero: Quest’è un duolo grave agli Egizj: perciò fu posto nome a quell’aia, Abel-Misraim, ch’è di là dal Giordano.
E vendo os moradores da terra, os cananeus, o luto na eira de Atade, disseram: É este o pranto grande dos egípcios. Por isso chamou-se-lhe Abel-Mizraim, que está além do Jordão.
