Open English Bible (OEB)English
Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
da blieben die von oben herabfließenden Wasser stehen; sie richteten sich auf wie ein Damm, sehr fern, bei Adam, der Stadt, die seitwärts von Zarethan liegt; und die nach dem Meere der Ebene, dem Salzmeere, hinabfließenden wurden völlig abgeschnitten. Und das Volk zog hindurch, Jericho gegenüber.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
Las aguas que venían de arriba, se pararon como en un montón bien lejos de la ciudad de Adam, que está al lado de Sarethan; y las que descendían á la mar de los llanos, al mar Salado, se acabaron y fueron partidas; y el pueblo pasó en derecho de Jericó.
Bíblia Livre (BL)Português
As águas que vinham de cima pararam, e amontoaram-se bem longe, na cidade de Adã, que está ao lado de Zaretã; e as que desciam ao mar das planícies, ao mar Salgado, esgotaram-se e foram totalmente interrompidas; e o povo passou em frente de Jericó.
Nova Versão (NVA)Português
as águas que vinham de cima pararam e formaram uma represa a uma longa distância, na altura de Adã, cidade ao lado de Zaretã, e até por todo o caminho abaixo do mar da Arabá, que é o mar Morto. E o povo atravessou diante de Jericó.

📖 Joshua 3:16 in Context

14And it came to pass, when the people removed from their tents, to pass over Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people;
15And as they that bare the ark were come unto Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bare the ark were dipped in the brim of the water, (for Jordan overfloweth all his banks all the time of harvest,)
16That 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.
17And the priests that bare the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of Jordan, and all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people were passed clean over Jordan.
