< Joshua 5 >

1 And it was when heard all [the] kings of the Amorite[s] who [were] on [the] other side of the Jordan west-ward and all [the] kings of the Canaanite[s] who [were] at the sea [they heard] this: he had dried up Yahweh [the] waters of the Jordan from before [the] people of Israel until (passing over they *Q(K)*) and it melted heart their and not it was in them still spirit because of [the] people of Israel.
約旦河西亞摩利人的諸王和靠海迦南人的諸王,聽見耶和華在以色列人前面使約旦河的水乾了,等到我們過去,他們的心因以色列人的緣故就消化了,不再有膽氣。
2 At the time that he said Yahweh to Joshua make for yourself knives of flint and return circumcise [the] people of Israel a second [time].
那時,耶和華吩咐約書亞說:「你製造火石刀,第二次給以色列人行割禮。」
3 And he made for himself Joshua knives of flint and he circumcised [the] people of Israel to [the] hill of foreskins.
約書亞就製造了火石刀,在「除皮山」那裏給以色列人行割禮。
4 And this [is] the reason why he circumcised Joshua all the people which had come out from Egypt the males all - [the] men of war they had died in the wilderness on the way when went out they from Egypt.
約書亞行割禮的緣故,是因為從埃及出來的眾民,就是一切能打仗的男丁,出了埃及以後,都死在曠野的路上。
5 For circumcised they had been all the people which came out and all the people born in the wilderness on the way when went out they from Egypt not people had circumcised.
因為出來的眾民都受過割禮;惟獨出埃及以後、在曠野的路上所生的眾民都沒有受過割禮。
6 For - forty year[s] they had walked [the] people of Israel in the wilderness until was finished all the nation [the] men of war who came out from Egypt who not they had listened to [the] voice of Yahweh whom he had sworn Yahweh to them to not to let to see them the land which he had sworn Yahweh to fathers their to give to us a land flowing of milk and honey.
以色列人在曠野走了四十年,等到國民,就是出埃及的兵丁,都消滅了,因為他們沒有聽從耶和華的話。耶和華曾向他們起誓,必不容他們看見耶和華向他們列祖起誓、應許賜給我們的地,就是流奶與蜜之地。
7 And children their he raised up in place of them them he circumcised Joshua for uncircumcised they were for not people had circumcised them on the way.
他們的子孫,就是耶和華所興起來接續他們的,都沒有受過割禮;因為在路上沒有給他們行割禮,約書亞這才給他們行了。
8 And it was just when they had finished all the nation to be circumcised and they remained in place their in the camp until lived they.
國民都受完了割禮,就住在營中自己的地方,等到痊癒了。
9 And he said Yahweh to Joshua this day I have rolled away [the] reproach of Egypt from on you and he called [the] name of the place that Gilgal until the day this.
耶和華對約書亞說:「我今日將埃及的羞辱從你們身上滾去了。」因此,那地方名叫吉甲,直到今日。
10 And they encamped [the] people of Israel at Gilgal and they observed the passover on [the] four-teen day of the month in the evening on [the] plains of Jericho.
以色列人在吉甲安營。正月十四日晚上,在耶利哥的平原守逾越節。
11 And they ate some of [the] produce of the land from [the] next day of the passover unleavened bread and roasted [grain] on [the] substance of the day this.
逾越節的次日,他們就吃了那地的出產;正當那日吃無酵餅和烘的穀。
12 And it ceased the manna from [the] next day when ate they some of [the] produce of the land and not it belonged again to [the] people of Israel manna and they ate some of [the] produce of [the] land of Canaan in the year that.
他們吃了那地的出產,第二日嗎哪就止住了,以色列人也不再有嗎哪了。那一年,他們卻吃迦南地的出產。
13 And it was when was Joshua at Jericho and he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! a man [was] standing to before him and sword his [was] drawn in hand his and he went Joshua to him and he said to him ¿ for us [are] you or? for foes our.
約書亞靠近耶利哥的時候,舉目觀看,不料,有一個人手裏有拔出來的刀,對面站立。約書亞到他那裏,問他說:「你是幫助我們呢,是幫助我們敵人呢?」
14 And he said - In-deed I [am] [the] commander of [the] army of Yahweh now I have come and he fell Joshua to face his [the] ground towards and he bowed down and he said to him what? [is] lord my saying servant his.
他回答說:「不是的,我來是要作耶和華軍隊的元帥。」約書亞就俯伏在地下拜,說:「我主有甚麼話吩咐僕人。」
15 And he said [the] commander of [the] army of Yahweh to Joshua take off sandal your from on foot your for the place which you [are] standing on it [is] a holy place it and he did Joshua thus.
耶和華軍隊的元帥對約書亞說:「把你腳上的鞋脫下來,因為你所站的地方是聖的。」約書亞就照着行了。
