1 Amori Kini vahe'ma Jodani timofo zage fre kazigama nemanimo'zane, Kenani Kini vahe'ma Meditereniani hagerimofo ankenaregama nemanimo'za, Ra Anumzamo'ma Jodani tima eri hagegema hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'zama Jodani tima takama he'naza kema nentahi'zageno, hanave'zamia omanege'za koro hu'za ha'ma hanaza zamagesa osu'naze.
When all the Amorite kings west of the Jordan and all the Canaanite kings of the Mediterranean coast heard how the Lord had dried up the waters of the River Jordan so that the Israelites could cross over, their courage melted and they no longer had any fighting spirit to face the Israelites.
2 Hagi ana knafina Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno Josuana asami'ne, Havereti asane kazina trohunka vene'neramine ne'mofavre naga'ma zamagoza anoma tagama osu'nesaza nagara taga huzamanto.
At that time the Lord told Joshua, “Make flint knives and circumcise the new generation of Israelites.”
3 Higeno agra'a Josua'a havereti kazina trohuteno, ana vene'nene ne'mofavre nagara Ha'alotie nehaza osi agonare zamagoza anona taga huzmante'ne.
Joshua had flint knives made and all male Israelites were circumcised at the place that became known as “the hill of foreskins.”
4 Hagi ha'ma huga vene'nema Isipiti'ma etirami'naza vahe'mo'za 40'a kafufima ka'ma kopima ne-eza fri vagare'nazagu Josua'a e'inahu zana huzamante'ne.
This is the reason why Joshua had them all circumcised: all those who left Egypt—the men of fighting age—had died on the journey through the wilderness after the Exodus.
5 Hanki ana maka vene'nema Isipiti'ma atre'zama etirami'naza vahe'mo'za zamagoza anona tagahute'za e'naze. Hianagi karankama ka'ma kopima ne-ezama kasezamante'naza vene'ne'a zamagoza anona taga osu'naze.
They had all been circumcised when they left Egypt, but those born on the journey since then had not.
6 Israeli vahe'mo'za 40'a kafufi ka'ma kopina e'naze. Ha'ma huga vene'nema Isipiti'ma etirami'naza vahera e'ina knafi fri vagare'naze. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamofo kea amage ontenagu, Agra amanage hu'ne, ana vene'nefintira magomo'e huno zamafahe'ima zamigahue hu'na amirimo'ene tumerimo'ma avite'nea mopama huvempama hu'zmante'noa moparera ovugahaze.
For forty years the Israelites traveled through the wilderness until all the men of fighting age when they left Egypt had died, because they had not done what the Lord had told them to do. So the Lord had vowed that he would not let them see the land he had promised their forefathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Ka'ma kopima zamagri noma erisagu'ma kasezmante'naza ne'mofavre'ramina Josua'a zamagoza anona taga huzamante'ne. Na'ankure karankama ne-eza zamagoza anona taga huozmante'nagu anara hu'ne.
The Lord replaced them with their children, and these were the ones that Joshua circumcised. They were uncircumcised since they hadn't been circumcised on the way.
8 Ana maka Israeli vene'nemo'za zamagoza anoma taga hute'za, kuma'ma ante'zama mani'nare mani'nageno, namuzmimo'a tegani'ne.
Once they had all been circumcised, they stayed in the camp until they recovered.
9 Anante Ra Anumzamo'a Josuana amanage huno asami'ne, ko'ma tamagra Isipima mani'neta kazokzo eri'zama eneritma tamagazegu hu'nazane. Hianagi Nagra menina tamagri tamagaze zana eri netroe. Hige'za ana kumakura Gilgalie hu'za agia antemi'nageno, ana agimo'a meninena meno e'ne.
The Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have removed from all of you the disgrace of Egypt.” So that place has been called Gilgal to this day.
10 Hanki Israeli vahe'mo'za Jeriko agupofi Gilgali kumate mani'ne'za, ese ikana 14ni knamofo kinaga Ra Anumzamo'ma ozamahe zamagatere'nea zanku antahimi'za ra ne'za kre'za nene'za musena hu'naze.
The Israelites camped at Gilgal and celebrated Passover there on the evening of the fourteenth day of the first month.
11 Ana ne'zama nete'za, anante knazupa Kenani mopafinti ne'zana agafa hu'za zo'ore bretine, kre hagege hu witinena ne'naze.
From the very next day they began to eat produce from the land: unleavened bread and roasted grain.
12 Israeli naga'mozama Kenani mopafinti ne'zama agafama hu'za naza knazupage, mana ne'zamo'ma monafinti'ma eneramiazana vagare'ne. E'ina hige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za ana kafufina mana ne'zana e'ori'nazanki, Kenani mopafinti ne'zanke ne'naze.
On the same day when they began eating produce from the land there was no more manna. No longer did the Israelites have manna; after that they ate the produce of the land of Canaan.
13 Mago zupa Josua'a Jeriko kuma tvaonte emani'neno keana, mago ne'mo'a bainati kazina azampi eri'neno, avuga oti'negeno negeno urava'o huno, Kagra tagri vahepi, ha' vaheti mani'nane?
One day when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went up to him and asked, “Are you for us or against us?” “Neither,” said the man. “I am the commander of the Lord's army. Now I'm here!”
14 Higeno ana ne'mo'a huno, A'o nagra kagri kaziga vahera omani'na, ha' vahe kaziga vahera omaninoanki, nagra Ra Anumzamofo sondia vahete ugota kva ne' e'noe. Higeno Josua'a avugosaregati kepri huno agiafi renareno amanage hu'ne, Eri'za vahekamo'na na'a hugahufi nasamio.
Joshua fell down with his face to the ground in awe. Then he said, “What orders does my lord have for his servant?”
15 Higeno Ra Anumzamofo sondia vahete ugota kva ne'mo'a Josuana amanage huno asmi'ne, Kagra kaga nona katufe tro. Na'ankure amama oti'nana mopamo'a ruotage hu'ne. Higeno Josua'a kema hiaza huno agia nona katufetre'ne.
The commander of the Lord's army told Joshua, “Take off your sandals, for the place where you're standing is holy ground.” Joshua did so.
