Ja koska Kanaanin maan asuvaiset näkivät heidän murheensa Atadin riihen tykönä, sanoivat he: Egyptiläiset murehtivat siellä sangen kovin. Siitä se paikka kutsutaan: Egyptiläisten valitus, joka on sillä puolella Jordania.

SWORD version by Tero Favorin (tero at favorin dot com)
5320. 'And placed a chain of gold onto his neck' means an outward sign denoting the joining of interior things to exterior ones, good being that which effects that joining together. This is clear from the meaning of 'the neck' as a flowing in, also the communication of higher things with lower ones, or what amounts to the same, interior things with exterior ones, dealt with in 3542; and therefore 'a chain', because it goes around the neck, is a sign denoting the joining together of those things. 'A chain of gold' means a joining together by means of good; that is, good is the means which effects it, because 'gold' means good, 113, 1551, 1552. A sign denoting the joining of interior truth to exterior truth is meant by 'a chain onto the neck' in Ezekiel,
I adorned you with ornaments and put bracelets onto your hands and a chain onto your neck. Ezekiel 16:11.
