< Joshua 5 >

1 Tokosra nukewa lun mwet Amor su muta roto liki Infacl Jordan, ac tokosra nukewa lun mwet Canaan su muta sisken Meoa Mediterranean elos lohng lah LEUM GOD El akpaoyela Infacl Jordan nwe ke na mwet Israel elos fahsr sasla. Elos mutawauk in sangeng ac insialos foroti ke sripen mwet Israel ah.
And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, that were beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, that were by the sea, heard how that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until they were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.
2 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Orala kutu mitmit kosroh an ke eot keke, ac sifil sang kosrala mwet Israel.”
At that time the LORD said unto Joshua: 'Make thee knives of flint, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.'
3 Na Joshua el oru oana ma LEUM GOD El sapkin nu sel, ac el kosrala mwet Israel in sie acn pangpang Fineol in Kosrala.
And Joshua made him knives of flint, and circumcised the children of Israel at Gibeath-ha-araloth.
4 Pa inge sripa se sis Joshua el kosralosla, mweyen mukul nukewa ma fal matwalos in wi mweun ke elos illa liki Egypt, elos misa tari.
And this is the cause why Joshua did circumcise: all the people that came forth out of Egypt, that were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt.
5 Mukul nukewa ma wi illa liki acn Egypt, elos kosrkosrla tari, ac mukul nukewa ma tufah isusla tukun illa sac, elos nukewa soenna kosrla.
For all the people that came out were circumcised; but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way as they came forth out of Egypt, had not been circumcised.
6 Mwet Israel elos tuh forfor yen mwesis ke yac angngaul, nwe ke mwet mweun ma wi illa liki acn Egypt ah nufon misa ke sripen elos tia akos LEUM GOD. LEUM GOD El tuh wulela nu sin papa matu tumasr meet lah El ac ase nu sesr sie facl mut ac kasrup fohk we, tuh ke sripen seakos lalos uh LEUM GOD El fulahk nu selos tuh elos ac fah tia sun facl sac.
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the nation, even the men of war that came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD; unto whom the LORD swore that He would not let them see the land which the LORD swore unto their fathers that He would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Tulik natulos su soenna kosrala pa fwil sasu se ma Joshua el kosrala uh.
And He raised up their children in their stead; them did Joshua circumcise; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not been circumcised by the way.
8 Ac tukun mwet nukewa kosrkosrla tari, elos mutana in lohm nuknuk selos nwe ke na kinet kaclos ah mahla.
And it came to pass, when all the nation were circumcised, every one of them, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were whole.
9 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Joshua, “Misenge nga sisla liki kowos mwe mwekin lowos ke kowos tuh moul in mwet kohs in acn Egypt.” Pa inge sripa se sis pangpang acn sac Gilgal, ac ine se inge srakna orekmakinyuk nwe misenge.
And the LORD said unto Joshua: 'This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you.' Wherefore the name of that place was called Gilgal, unto this day.
10 Ke eku in len se aksingoul akosr ke malem sac, ke mwet Israel elos srakna muta in acn tupasrpasr apkuran nu Jericho, elos oru Kufwen Alukela in lohm nuknuk selos.
And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal; and they kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.
11 In len tok ah, pa inge len se emeet elos mutawauk mongo ke fokin acn Canaan. Ma elos kang pa bread wangin mwe pulol kac, ac fiten wheat manman.
And they did eat of the produce of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes and parched corn, in the selfsame day.
12 In len sac me manna tia sifil sikyak, ac mwet Israel elos mongo ke fokin acn Canaan.
And the manna ceased on the morrow, after they had eaten of the produce of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
13 Ke Joshua el apkuran nu Jericho, el ngetak ac liye mwet se tu ye mutal, ac cutlass natul fwafeyak inpaol. Joshua el kalukyang nu yorol ac fahk, “Ya kom sie sesr, ku kom mwet lokoalok lasr?”
And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand; and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him: 'Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?'
14 Ac mwet sac fahk, “Nga tia wi kewa. Nga pa captain lun un mwet mweun lun LEUM GOD.” Na Joshua el putati nu infohk uh ac alu nu sel ac fahk, “Nga mwet kulansap lom. Mea kom lungse nga in oru?”
And he said: 'Nay, but I am captain of the host of the LORD; I am now come.' And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and bowed down, and said unto him: 'What saith my lord unto his servant?'
15 Na captain lun un mwet mweun lun LEUM GOD el fahk nu sel, “Sarukla fahluk lom an, tuh acn se kom tu we an acn mutal se.” Na Joshua el oru oana ma el fahk ah.
And the captain of the LORD'S host said unto Joshua: 'Put off thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy.' And Joshua did so.
