That the waters which came down from above stood [and] rose up upon an heap very far from the city Adam, that [is] beside Zaretan: and those that came down toward the sea of the plain, [even] the salt sea, failed, [and] were cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.
That the waters {H4325} which came down {H3381} from above {H4605} stood {H5975} and rose up {H6965} upon an {H259} heap {H5067} very {H3966} far {H7368} from the city {H5892} Adam {H121}, that is beside {H6654} Zaretan {H6891}: and those that came down {H3381} toward the sea {H3220} of the plain {H6160}, even the salt {H4417} sea {H3220}, failed {H8552}, and were cut off {H3772}: and the people {H5971} passed over {H5674} right against Jericho {H3405}.
the water upstream stood piled up like an embankment for a great distance at Adam, the city next to Tzartan; so that the water flowing downstream toward the Sea of the 'Aravah, the Dead Sea, was completely cut off; and the people crossed over right by Yericho.
the flowing water stood still. It backed up as far upstream as Adam, a city in the area of Zarethan, while the water flowing toward the Sea of the Arabah (the Salt Sea) was completely cut off. So the people crossed over opposite Jericho.
that the waters which came down from above stood, and rose up in one heap, a great way off, at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those that went down toward the sea of the Arabah, even the Salt Sea, were wholly cut off: and the people passed over right against Jericho.
