Bereshis 50:9-11
Orthodox Jewish Bible
9 And there went up with him both merkavot and parashim; and it was a very great machaneh.
10 And they came to the goren (threshing floor) of Atad, which is beyond the Yarden, and there they mourned with a gadol and very bitter lamentation; and he made evel (mourning) for Aviv shivat yamim.
11 And when the inhabitants of HaAretz, the Kena’ani, saw the evel (mourning) in the goren Atad, they said, This is a grievous evel to the Mitzrayim; therefore the shem of it was called Evel Mitzrayim. It is beyond the Yarden.

9 Chariots(A) and horsemen[a] also went up with him. It was a very large company.
10 When they reached the threshing floor(B) of Atad, near the Jordan, they lamented loudly and bitterly;(C) and there Joseph observed a seven-day period(D) of mourning(E) for his father.(F) 11 When the Canaanites(G) who lived there saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “The Egyptians are holding a solemn ceremony of mourning.”(H) That is why that place near the Jordan is called Abel Mizraim.[b]
