< Joshua 5 >
1 Therefore, after all the kings of the Amorites, who were living across the Jordan toward the western region, and all the kings of Canaan, who possessed the places beside the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel, until they crossed over it, their heart was broken, and there remained in them no spirit, out of fear at the entrance of the sons of Israel.
Alò, li te vin rive ke lè tout wa Amoreyen ki te lòtbò Jourdain yo vè lwès ak tout wa Canaran akote lanmè yo, te tande jan SENYÈ a te seche dlo Jourdain an devan fis Israël yo jiskaske yo te travèse, ke kè yo te fonn, e yo pa t gen kouraj nan yo ankò akoz fis Israël yo.
2 So at that time, the Lord said to Joshua: “Make for yourself knives of stone, and circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.”
Nan tan sa a, SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Fè pou ou menm kouto avèk silèks e sikonsi ankò fis Israël yo pou dezyèm fwa a.”
3 He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
Konsa, Josué te fè pou kont li kouto avèk silèks e te sikonsi fis Israël yo nan Gilbreath-Araloth.
4 Now this is the reason for the second circumcision: All the people who departed from Egypt of the male gender, all the men fit for war, died in the desert during the very long wandering way;
Men rezon pou sila Josué te sikonsi yo a: tout pèp la ki te sòti an Égypte nan gason yo, tout mesye lagè yo, te mouri nan dezè a nan wout lè yo fin kite Égypte.
5 all these had been circumcised. But the people who were born in the desert,
Paske tout mesye ki te sòti yo te sikonsi, men tout mesye ki te fèt nan dezè a nan wout la pandan yo sòti an Égypte la pa t ankò sikonsi.
6 throughout the forty years of the journey in the very broad wilderness, were uncircumcised, until the ones who had not listened to the voice of the Lord were consumed. For he had sworn to them before, that he would not reveal to them the land flowing with milk and honey.
Paske fis Israël yo te mache karantan nan dezè a, jis tout nasyon an, mesye lagè ki te sòti an Égypte yo, te peri akoz yo pa t koute vwa SENYÈ a, a sila SENYÈ a te sèmante ke Li pa t ap kite yo wè peyi ke SENYÈ a te sèmante bay zansèt pa yo pou bannou an, yon peyi ki koule avèk lèt ak siwo myèl.
7 The sons of these ones succeeded to the place of their fathers, and they were circumcised by Joshua. For they were uncircumcised, just as they had been born, and no one had circumcised them along the way.
Timoun ke Li te vin leve pou ranplase yo, Josué te sikonsi yo. Paske yo pa t sikonsi akoz ke yo pa t sikonsi yo nan wout la.
8 Then, after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp until they were healed.
Alò, lè yo te fin sikonsi tout nasyon an, yo te rete nan plas yo nan kan an jiskaske yo te fin geri.
9 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have taken away from you the disgrace of Egypt.” And the name of that place was called Gilgal, even to the present day.
Epi SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Jodi a, Mwen te woule fè sòti wont a Égypte la sou nou menm.” Konsa, jis jodi a, yo rele plas sa a Guilgal.
10 And the sons of Israel stayed at Gilgal, and they kept the Passover, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, in the plains of Jericho.
Pandan fis Israël yo te rete Guilgal, yo te obsève Pak la nan lannwit katòzyèm jou nan mwa a nan plèn dezè a Jéricho a.
11 And on the following day, they ate unleavened bread from the grain of the land, and cooked grain, of the same year.
Nan jou apre Pak la, nan menm jou sa a, yo te manje kèk nan pwodwi tè yo, gato san ledven ak sereyal griye.
12 And the manna ceased after they ate from the grain of the land. And the sons of Israel no longer made use of that food. Instead, they ate from the grain of the present year, from the land of Canaan.
Lamàn te sispann nan jou apre yo te manje kèk nan pwodwi tè yo. Konsa, fis Israël yo pa t gen lamàn ankò, men yo te manje nan donn tè Canaran an pandan ane sa a.
13 And when Joshua was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and he saw a man standing opposite him, holding a drawn sword. And he went to him and said, “Are you one of ours, or one of our adversaries?”
Alò, li te rive ke lè Josué te toupre Jéricho, li te leve zye li anwo e te gade, vwala, yon nonm te kanpe anfas li avèk nepe li rale nan men l. Josué te pwoche l, e li te di li: “Èske ou pou nou oswa kont nou?”
14 And he responded: “Not at all. Instead, I am a prince of the host of the Lord, and now I have arrived.” Joshua fell prone on the ground. And reverencing, he said, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
Li te reponn: “Non; olye de sa, anverite mwen vini koulye a kòm kapitèn a lame SENYÈ a.” Konsa, Josué te tonbe atè sou figi li. Li te adore l e te di li: “Kisa mèt mwen an gen pou di a sèvitè li?”
15 He said: “Remove your shoes from your feet. For the place on which you stand is holy.” And Joshua did just as he had been commanded.
Kapitèn a lame SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Retire sapat ou nan pye ou, paske plas kote ou kanpe a sen.” Epi Josué te fè l.
