19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.
Et la limite des Cananéens fut depuis Sidon, en venant vers Guérar, jusqu'à Gaza, en venant vers Sodome, Gomorrhe, Adma, et Tseboïm, jusqu'à Lésha.
