Joshua 3:16 in French

16 Les eaux qui descendaient d'en haut s'arrêtèrent, elles s'élevèrent en un monceau, fort loin, près de la ville d'Adam, qui est à côté de Tsarthan; et celles qui descendaient vers la mer de la campagne, la mer Salée, furent complètement coupées; et le peuple passa vis-à-vis de Jérico.
