< Joshua 5 >

1 And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were by the sea, heard how that Jehovah had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the sons of Israel until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the sons of Israel.
Pagkarinig ng lahat ng hari ng mga Amoreo sa kanlurang dako ng Jordan, at lahat ng hari ng mga Cananaeo, na nasa baybayin ng Malaking Dagat, na pinatuyo ni Yahweh ang tubig sa Jordan hanggang nakatawid ang bayan ng Israel, natunaw ang kanilang mga puso, at walang anumang espiritu sa kanila dahil sa mga Israelita.
2 At that time Jehovah said to Joshua, Make for thee knives of flint, and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.
Sa panahong iyon sinabi ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Gumawa ka ng mga kutsilyo mula sa matigas na bato at tuliin minsan pa ang lahat ng lalaki ng Israel.”
3 And Joshua made him knives of flint, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
Pagkatapos gumawa mismo si Josue ng mga kutsilyo mula sa matigas na bato at tinuli ang lahat ng lalaki ng Israel sa Gibeat Haaralot.
4 And this is the reason why Joshua circumcised: All the people who came forth out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way after they came forth out of Egypt.
At ito ang dahilan na tinuli sila ni Josue: lahat ng lalaking lumabas sa Ehipto, kasama ang lahat ng kalalakihang mandirigma, ay namatay sa ilang habang daan, pagkatapos nilang lumabas sa Ehipto.
5 For all the people who came out were circumcised, but all the people who were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of Egypt, they had not circumcised.
Kahit tinuli na ang lahat ng lalaking lumabas sa Ehipto, gayon man, walang batang lalaking ipinanganak sa ilang habang daang palabas ng Ehipto ay tinuli.
6 For the sons of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness till all the nation, even the men of war who came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not hearken to the voice of Jehovah, to whom Jehovah swore that he would not let them see the land which Jehovah swore to their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Naglakbay ang bayan ng Israel sa loob ng apatnapung taon sa ilang hanggang ang lahat ng tao, iyon ay, lahat ng kalalakihang mandirigma na nakalabas sa Ehipto ay namatay, dahil hindi nila sinunod ang tinig ni Yahweh. Ipinangako ni Yahweh sa kanila na hindi niya sila hahayaang makita ang lupaing ipinangako niya sa kanilang mga ninuno na ibibigay sa amin, isang lupaing umaapaw ang gatas at pulot.
7 And their sons, whom he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised, for they were uncircumcised because they had not circumcised them by the way.
Ang kanilang mga anak na inalagaan ni Yahweh kapalit nila na silang tinuli ni Josue, dahil hindi pa sila tinuli sa daan.
8 And it came to pass, when they had done circumcising all the nation, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were recovered.
Nang tinuli silang lahat, nanatili sila sa kampo kung saan sila naroroon hanggang gumaling sila.
9 And Jehovah said to Joshua, This day I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal, to this day.
At sinabi ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Sa araw na ito inalis ko ang kahihiyan ng Ehipto mula sa inyo.” Kaya tinawag ang lugar na iyon sa pangalang Gilgal hanggang sa araw na ito.
10 And the sons of Israel encamped in Gilgal. And they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.
Nagkampo ang bayan ng Israel sa Gilgal. Ipinagdiwang nila ang Paskua sa ikalabing apat na araw ng buwan, sa gabi, sa mga kapatagan ng Jerico.
11 And they ate of the produce of the land on the morrow after the Passover, unleavened cakes and parched grain, in the selfsame day.
At kinabukasan ng Paskua, sa araw mismong iyon, kinain nila ang ilan sa bunga ng lupain, tinapay na walang lebadura, at inihaw na butil.
12 And the manna ceased on the morrow, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. Neither had the sons of Israel manna any more, but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
Tumigil ang manna sa araw matapos nilang kainin ang bunga ng lupain. Wala ng manna para sa bayan ng Israel, pero kinain nila ang bunga ng lupain ng Canaan sa taong iyon.
13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man opposite him with his sword drawn in his hand. And Joshua went to him, and said to him, Are thou for us, or for our adversaries?
Nang malapit na si Josue sa Jerico, tumingala siya at nakita, at masdan ito, isang lalaki ang nakatayo sa kaniyang harapan; hinugot niya ang kaniyang espada at ito at nasa kamay niya. Lumapit si Josue sa kaniya at sinabing, “Ikaw ba ay sa amin o para sa aming kaaway?”
14 And he said, No, but as captain of the army of Jehovah I have now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and said to him, What does my lord say to his servant?
Sinabi niya, “Wala sa alinman. Dahil ako ang pinuno ng hukbo ni Yahweh. Ngayon naparito ako.” Pagkatapos nagpatirapa si Josue sa lupa para sumamba at sinabi sa kaniya, “Ano ang sinasabi ng aking panginoon sa kaniyang lingkod?”
15 And the captain of Jehovah's army said to Joshua, Put off thy shoe from off thy foot, for the place on which thou stand is holy. And Joshua did so.
Sinabi ng pinununo ng hukbo ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Hubarin mo ang iyong sandalyas mula sa iyong mga paa, dahil banal ang lugar na iyong kinatatayuan.” At ginawa iyon ni Josue.
