Parallel

Genesis 50:11

Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible

καὶ ἴδον οἱ κάτοικοι τῆς γῆς Χανάαν τὸ πένθος ἐν ἅλωνι Ἀτὰδ καὶ εἶπαν Πένθος μέγα τοῦτό ἐστιν τοῖς Αἰγυπτίοις· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Πένθος Αἰγύπτου, ὅ ἐστιν πέραν τοῦ Ἰορδάνου.
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.).
