Parallel

Genesis 50:11

King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible

And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This is a grievous mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called Abel–mizraim, which is beyond Jordan.
When the Canaanites of the land saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “This is a solemn ceremony of mourning by the Egyptians.” Thus the place across the Jordan is called Abel-mizraim (note: Abel-mizraim means mourning of the Egyptians.).
