Joshua 5

1 And it happened, 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 YHWH had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.

E quando todos os reis dos amorreus, que estavam da outra parte do Jordão ao ocidente, e todos os reis dos cananeus, que estavam próximos do mar, ouviram como o SENHOR havia secado as águas do Jordão diante dos filhos de Israel até que passaram, desfaleceu seu coração, e não houve mais espírito neles diante dos filhos de Israel.

2 At that time, YHWH said to Joshua, "Make flint knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time."

Naquele tempo o SENHOR disse a Josué: Faze-te facas afiadas, e volta a circuncidar a segunda vez aos filhos de Israel.

3 Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the Hill of the Foreskins.

E Josué se fez facas afiadas, e circuncidou aos filhos de Israel no monte dos prepúcios.

4 This is the reason Joshua circumcised: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.

Esta é a causa pela qual Josué os circuncidou: todo aquele povo que havia saído do Egito, os homens, todos os homens de guerra, haviam morrido no deserto pelo caminho, depois que saíram do Egito.

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 out of Egypt had not been circumcised.

Porque todos os do povo que haviam saído, estavam circuncidados: mas todo aquele povo que havia nascido no deserto pelo caminho, depois que saíram do Egito, não estavam circuncidados.

6 For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, perished, because they did not listen to the voice of YHWH, those to whom YHWH swore that they would not see the land which YHWH swore to their ancestors that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

Porque os filhos de Israel andaram pelo deserto por quarenta anos, até que toda a gente dos homens de guerra que haviam saído do Egito foi consumida, porquanto não obedeceram à voz do SENHOR; pelo qual o SENHOR lhes jurou que não lhes deixaria ver a terra, da qual o SENHOR havia jurado a seus pais que não as daria, terra que flui leite e mel.

7 And their children, whom he raised up in their place, were circumcised by Joshua; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.

E os filhos deles, que ele havia feito suceder em seu lugar, Josué os circuncidou; pois eram incircuncisos, porque não haviam sido circuncidados pelo caminho.

8 And it happened, when they were done circumcising all the nation, that they stayed in their places in the camp until they were healed.

E quando acabaram de circuncidar toda a gente, ficaram no mesmo lugar no acampamento, até que sararam.

9 And YHWH said to Joshua, "Today I have rolled away the disgrace of Egypt from off you." Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal, to this day.

E o SENHOR disse a Josué: Hoje tirei de vós a humilhação do Egito: pelo qual o nome daquele lugar foi chamado Gilgal, até hoje.

10 The children of Israel camped in Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.

E os filhos de Israel assentaram o acampamento em Gilgal, e celebraram a páscoa aos catorze dias do mês, pela tarde, nas planícies de Jericó.

11 They ate unleavened cakes and parched grain of the produce of the land on the next day after the Passover, in the same day.

E ao outro dia da páscoa comeram do fruto da terra os pães sem levedura, e no mesmo dia espigas novas tostadas.

12 The manna ceased on the next day, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. The children of Israel did not have manna any more; but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.

E o maná cessou o dia seguinte, desde que começaram a comer do fruto da terra: e os filhos de Israel nunca mais tiveram maná, mas sim que comeram dos frutos da terra de Canaã aquele ano.

13 It happened, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and look, a man stood in front of him with his sword drawn in his hand. Joshua went to him, and said to him, "Are you for us, or for our adversaries?"

E estando Josué próximo de Jericó, levantou seus olhos, e viu um homem que estava diante dele, o qual tinha uma espada nua em sua mão. E Josué indo até ele, lhe disse: És dos nossos, ou de nossos inimigos?

14 And he said to him, "Truly I am the commander of the army of YHWH. Now I have come." And Joshua fell facedown to the ground and worshipped, and said to him, "What does my lord say to his servant?"

E ele respondeu: Não; mas sim Príncipe do exército do SENHOR, agora vim. Então Josué prostrando-se sobre seu rosto em terra o adorou; e disse-lhe: Que diz meu Senhor a seu servo?

15 The commander of the army of YHWH said to Joshua, "Take your shoes off of your feet; for the place on which you stand is holy." Joshua did so.

E o Príncipe do exército do SENHOR respondeu a Josué: Tira teus sapatos de teus pés; porque o lugar onde estás é santo. E Josué o fez assim.
