Joshua 5
1 And it came to pass when the kings of the Amorites who were beyond Jordan heard, and the kings of Phoenicia by the sea, that the Lord God had dried up the river Jordan from before the children of Israel when they passed over, that their hearts failed, and they were terror-stricken, and there was no sense in them because of the children of Israel.
Lè tout wa peyi Amori yo ki te rete lòt bò larivyè Jouden sou bò solèy kouche a ansanm ak tout wa peyi Kanaran yo ki te rete sou tout rivaj gwo lanmè Mediterane a vin konnen Seyè a te cheche dlo larivyè Jouden an pou pèp Izrayèl la te pase larivyè a, yo vin pè anpil, yo pèdi tout kouraj yo devan pèp Izrayèl la.
2 And about this time the Lord said to Joshua, Make you stone knives of sharp stone, and sit down and circumcise the children of Israel the second time.
Lè sa a, Seyè a pale ak Jozye, li di l' konsa: -Pran wòch dife, kase yo fè zenglen pou sikonsi gason pèp Izrayèl ki fèt nan dezè a.
3 And Joshua made sharp knives of stone, and circumcised the children of Israel at the place called the “Hill of Foreskins.”
Se konsa, Jozye fè yon bann zenglen wòch byen file, li sikonsi tout gason pèp Izrayèl la yon kote yo rele Bit po ti kòk.
4 And [this is] the way in which Joshua purified the children of Israel; as many as were born in the way, and as many as were uncircumcised of them that came out of Egypt,
Li te fè sa paske tout gason ki te gen laj pou yo pote zam lè yo te soti kite peyi Lejip la te mouri nan dezè a pandan yo t'ap vwayaje a.
5 all these Joshua circumcised; for forty and two years Israel wondered in the wilderness of Mabdaris—
Tout gason ki te vivan lè yo te soti kite peyi Lejip la te sikonsi. Men, ankenn nan gason ki te fèt pandan yo t'ap vwayaje nan dezè a pa t' ankò sikonsi.
6 Therefore most of the fighting men that came out of the land of Egypt, were uncircumcised, who disobeyed the commands of God; concerning whom also he determined that they should not see the land, which the Lord sware to give to their fathers, [even] a land flowing with milk and honey.
Pèp Izrayèl la te pase karantan ap vwayaje nan dezè a. Pandan tout tan sa a, tout gason ki te gen laj pou fè lagè lè yo te soti kite peyi Lejip la te mouri, paske yo pa t' koute Seyè a lè li te pale yo. Se konsa li te di yo li pa t'ap kite yo yonn wè peyi li te pwomèt li t'ap bay zansèt yo a, bon peyi kote lèt ak siwo myèl ap koule tankou dlo a.
7 And in their place he raised up their sons, whom Joshua circumcised, because they were uncircumcised, having been born by the way.
Men, li ba yo pitit pou ranplase yo. Se pitit sa yo Jozye te sikonsi paske yo pa t' sikonsi yo lè yo t'ap vwayaje nan dezè a.
8 And when they had been circumcised they rested continuing there in the camp till they were healed.
Lè li fin sikonsi tout gason yo, tout pèp la rete la kote yo te moute tant yo a, jouk yo te geri.
9 And the Lord said to Joshua the son of Naue, On this day have I removed the reproach of Egypt from you: and he called the name of that place Galgala.
Apre sa, Seyè a di Jozye konsa: -Jòdi a mwen wete wont yo te fè nou nan peyi Lejip la, mwen voye l' jete. Se poutèt sa yo rele kote yo te ye a Gilgal jouk jòdi a.
10 And the children of Israel kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, to the westward of Jericho on the opposite side of the Jordan in the plain.
Antan pèp Izrayèl la te rete Gilgal nan plenn ki toupre lavil Jeriko, yo fete Fèt Delivrans lan nan aswè katòzyèm jou premye mwa a.
11 And they ate of the grain of the earth unleavened and new [corn].
Nan denmen Fèt Delivrans lan, yo manje manje yo rekòlte nan peyi a: grenn ble griye ak pen kwit san ledven.
12 In this day the manna failed, after they had eaten of the corn of the land, and the children of Israel no longer had manna: and they took the fruits of the land of the Phoenicians in that year.
Apre sa, laman lan sispann tonbe. Depi lè sa a, pèp Izrayèl la pa jwenn laman pou yo manje ankò. Pandan tout lanne a yo manje manje yo te rekolte nan peyi Kanaran an.
13 And it came to pass when Joshua was in Jericho, that he looked up with his eyes and saw a man standing before him, and [there was] a drawn sword in his hand; and Joshua drew near and said to him, Are you for us or on the side of our enemies?
Yon jou, antan Jozye te toupre lavil Jeriko a, li rete konsa, li wè yon nonm kanpe devan l' avèk yon nepe nan men l'. Jozye mache sou li, epi li mande l': -Ou se yonn nan moun pa nou yo osinon yon lènmi?
14 And he said to him, I am now come, the chief captain of the host of the Lord. And Joshua fell on his face upon the earth, and said to him, Lord, what command you your servant?
Nonm lan reponn li: -M' pa ni yonn ni lòt. Mwen se kòmandan an chèf lame Seyè a. Mwen fèk rive. Jozye tonbe ajenou devan l', li bese tèt li jouk atè, li di l' konsa: -Se sèvitè ou mwen ye, mèt. Kisa ou vle m' fè pou ou?
15 And the captain of the Lord's host said to Joshua, Loose your shoe off your feet, for the place whereon you now stand is holy.
Kòmandan an chèf lame Seyè a di l' konsa: -Wete sapat nan pye ou. Kote ou kanpe a se yon kote ki apa pou Bondye. Epi Jozye fè sa li di l' fè a.
