< Joshua 5 >

1 And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan, from before the sons of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because 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 At that time, said Yahweh unto Joshua, Make thee knives of flint, —and again 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 So Joshua made him knives of flint, —and circumcised the sons of Israel, at the Hill of 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 cause why Joshua did circumcise, —all the people who came forth out of Egypt, who were males, all the men of war, died in the desert, by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt.
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 For, though all the people who came forth had been circumcised, yet, all the people who were born in the desert by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt, had they not circumcised.
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 Because, for forty years, did the sons of Israel journey in the desert, until all the nation who were men of war, who came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, —unto whom Yahweh sware that he would not let them see the land, which Yahweh sware unto their fathers, that he would give unto us, a 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 Their sons, therefore, whom he had raised up in their stead, them, did Joshua circumcise, —for, uncircumcised, they were, in that they had not circumcised them by 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 And so it came to pass, when they had made an end of circumcising all the nation, they remained in their place, in 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 Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, To-day, have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of that place is called Gilgal ["a rolling away"]unto this 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 Thus then the sons of Israel encamped in Gilgal, —and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the waste 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 they did eat of the corn of the land, on the morrow of the passover, unleavened cakes and parched ears of corn, —on this selfsame day.
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 on the morrow, when they had eaten of the corn of the land, neither had the sons of Israel manna any more, —so they did eat of the yield of the land of Canaan throughout that year.
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 it came to pass, while Joshua was at Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes, and looked, and lo! a man standing over against him, with his sword drawn, in his hand, —so Joshua went unto him, and said to him, For us, art thou, or for 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 said—Nay, but, I, as prince of the host of Yahweh, have, now, come. So Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said unto him, What is my lord speaking unto 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 Then said the prince of the host of Yahweh unto Joshua—Slip off thy sandals from thy feet, for, as for the place whereon thou art standing, holy, it is. And Joshua did so.
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.
