16 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 .
16 ndipo hayo maji yaliyoshuka kutoka juu yakasimama, yakainuka, yakawa chuguu, mbali sana, huko Adamu, mji ule ulio karibu na Sarethani, na maji yale yaliyotelemkia bahari ya Araba, yaani Bahari ya Chumvi, yakatindika kabisa; watu wakavuka kukabili Yeriko.
