< Yosua 5 >

1 Ketika semua raja orang Amori di sebelah barat sungai Yordan dan semua raja orang Kanaan di tepi laut mendengar, bahwa TUHAN telah mengeringkan air sungai Yordan di depan orang Israel, sampai mereka dapat menyeberang, tawarlah hati mereka dan hilanglah semangat mereka menghadapi orang Israel itu.
And it comes to pass, when all the kings of the Amorite which [are] beyond the Jordan, toward the sea, and all the kings of the Canaanite which [are] by the sea, hear how that YHWH has dried up the waters of the Jordan at the presence of the sons of Israel until their passing over, that their heart is melted, and there has not been anymore spirit in them because of the presence of the sons of Israel.
2 Pada waktu itu berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Yosua: "Buatlah pisau dari batu dan sunatlah lagi orang Israel itu, untuk kedua kalinya."
At that time YHWH said to Joshua, “Make knives of flint for yourself, and return, circumcise the sons of Israel a second time”;
3 Lalu Yosua membuat pisau dari batu dan disunatnyalah orang Israel itu di Bukit Kulit Khatan.
and Joshua makes knives of flint for himself, and circumcises the sons of Israel at the height of the foreskins.
4 Inilah sebabnya Yosua menyunat mereka: semua orang yang keluar dari Mesir, yakni yang laki-laki, semua prajurit, telah mati di padang gurun di tengah jalan, setelah mereka keluar dari Mesir.
And this [is] the thing [for] which Joshua circumcises [them]: all the people who are coming out of Egypt, who are males, all the men of war have died in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out of Egypt,
5 Sebab, semua orang yang keluar dari Mesir itu telah bersunat, tetapi semua orang yang lahir di padang gurun dalam perjalanan sejak keluar dari Mesir, belum disunat.
for all the people who are coming out were circumcised, and all the people who [are] born in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out from Egypt, they have not circumcised;
6 Sebab empat puluh tahun lamanya orang Israel itu berjalan melalui padang gurun, sampai habis mati seluruh bangsa itu, yakni prajurit yang keluar dari Mesir, yang tidak mendengarkan firman TUHAN. Kepada mereka itu TUHAN telah bersumpah, bahwa Ia tidak akan mengizinkan mereka melihat negeri yang dijanjikan TUHAN dengan bersumpah kepada nenek moyang mereka akan memberikannya kepada kita, suatu negeri yang berlimpah-limpah susu dan madunya.
for forty years the sons of Israel have gone in the wilderness, until all the nation of the men of war who are coming out of Egypt, who did not listen to the voice of YHWH, to whom YHWH has sworn not to show them the land which YHWH swore to their fathers to give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey, are consumed;
7 Tetapi anak-anak mereka yang telah dijadikan-Nya ganti mereka, mereka itulah yang disunat Yosua, sebab mereka belum bersunat, karena mereka tidak disunat dalam perjalanan.
and He raised up their sons in their stead, Joshua has circumcised them, for they have been uncircumcised, for they have not circumcised them in the way.
8 Setelah seluruh bangsa itu selesai disunat, maka tinggallah mereka di tempatnya masing-masing di perkemahan itu, sampai mereka sembuh.
And it comes to pass, when all the nation has completed to be circumcised, that they abide in their places in the camp until their recovering;
9 Dan berfirmanlah TUHAN kepada Yosua: "Hari ini telah Kuhapuskan cela Mesir itu dari padamu." Itulah sebabnya nama tempat itu disebut Gilgal sampai sekarang.
and YHWH says to Joshua, “Today I have rolled the reproach of Egypt from off you”; and [one] calls the name of that place Gilgal to this day.
10 Sementara berkemah di Gilgal, orang Israel itu merayakan Paskah pada hari yang keempat belas bulan itu, pada waktu petang, di dataran Yerikho.
And the sons of Israel encamp in Gilgal, and make the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho;
11 Lalu pada hari sesudah Paskah mereka makan hasil negeri itu, yakni roti yang tidak beragi dan bertih gandum, pada hari itu juga.
and they eat of the old grain of the land on the next day of the Passover, unleavened things and roasted [grain], on this very same day;
12 Lalu berhentilah manna itu, pada keesokan harinya setelah mereka makan hasil negeri itu. Jadi orang Israel tidak beroleh manna lagi, tetapi dalam tahun itu mereka makan yang dihasilkan tanah Kanaan.
and the manna ceases on the next day in their eating of the old grain of the land, and there has been no more manna for [the] sons of Israel, and they eat of the increase of the land of Canaan in that year.
13 Ketika Yosua dekat Yerikho, ia melayangkan pandangnya, dilihatnya seorang laki-laki berdiri di depannya dengan pedang terhunus di tangannya. Yosua mendekatinya dan bertanya kepadanya: "Kawankah engkau atau lawan?"
And it comes to pass in Joshua’s being by Jericho, that he lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, [there is] one standing in front of him, and his drawn sword [is] in his hand, and Joshua goes to him, and says to him, “Are you for us or for our adversaries?”
14 Jawabnya: "Bukan, tetapi akulah Panglima Balatentara TUHAN. Sekarang aku datang." Lalu sujudlah Yosua dengan mukanya ke tanah, menyembah dan berkata kepadanya: "Apakah yang akan dikatakan tuanku kepada hambanya ini?"
And He says, “No, for I [am] Prince of YHWH’s host; now I have come”; and Joshua falls on his face to the earth, and pays respect, and says to Him, “What is my Lord speaking to His servant?”
15 Dan Panglima Balatentara TUHAN itu berkata kepada Yosua: "Tanggalkanlah kasutmu dari kakimu, sebab tempat engkau berdiri itu kudus." Dan Yosua berbuat demikian.
And the Prince of YHWH’s host says to Joshua, “Cast off your shoe from off your foot, for the place on which you are standing is holy”; and Joshua does so.
