Jozuas 5
1 Un notikās, kad visi Amoriešu ķēniņi, kas viņpus Jardānes pret jūru un visi Kanaāniešu ķēniņi, kas jūrmalā, dzirdēja, ka Tas Kungs bija licis izsīkt Jardānes ūdenim Israēla bērnu priekšā, tiekams tie bija gājuši cauri, tad viņu sirds tapa bailīga, un tiem izzuda drošība Israēlu bērnu priekšā.
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 Tanī laikā Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: taisi sev akmens nažus un apgraizī atkal Israēla bērnus otru reiz.
At that time the Lord told Joshua, “Make flint knives and circumcise the new generation of Israelites.”
3 Tad Jozuas taisīja sev akmens nažus un apgraizīja Israēla bērnus uz Aralot pakalna.
Joshua had flint knives made and all male Israelites were circumcised at the place that became known as “the hill of foreskins.”
4 Un tādēļ Jozuas tos apgraizīja: visi ļaudis no vīriešu kārtas, kas no Ēģiptes zemes bija izgājuši, visi kara vīri bija nomiruši tuksnesī uz ceļa, no Ēģiptes zemes nākot.
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 Jo visi ļaudis, kas izgāja, bija apgraizīti. Bet visi ļaudis, kas bija dzimuši tuksnesī, ceļā no Ēģiptes zemes nākot, tie nebija apgraizīti.
They had all been circumcised when they left Egypt, but those born on the journey since then had not.
6 Jo Israēla bērni staigāja četrdesmit gadus tuksnesī, tiekams bija izmiruši visi karavīri, kas no Ēģiptes zemes bija izgājuši, tādēļ ka Tā Kunga balsij nebija klausījuši; tiem Tas Kungs bija zvērējis, ka Viņš tiem to zemi negribot ļaut redzēt, ko Viņš viņu tēviem bija zvērējis, mums dot, zemi, kur piens un medus tek.
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 Bet viņu dēlus Viņš cēla viņu vietā; tos Jozuas apgraizīja, tāpēc ka tiem bija priekšāda, jo tie nebija apgraizīti ceļā.
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 Un kad visi ļaudis bija apgraizīti, tad tie palika savā vietā lēģerī, tiekams bija dziedināti.
Once they had all been circumcised, they stayed in the camp until they recovered.
9 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Jozua: šodien Es no jums esmu novērsis visu Ēģiptes kaunu. Tāpēc tās vietas vārds tapa nosaukts Gilgala (novēršana) līdz šai dienai.
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 Un Israēla bērni apmetās Gilgalā, un turēja Pasa svētkus mēneša četrpadsmitā dienā ap vakaru, Jērikus klajumos,
The Israelites camped at Gilgal and celebrated Passover there on the evening of the fourteenth day of the first month.
11 Un ēda Pasa svētku otrā dienā no tās zemes labības neraudzētu maizi un ceptas vārpas šinī dienā.
From the very next day they began to eat produce from the land: unleavened bread and roasted grain.
12 Un tas manna beidzās otrā dienā pēc tam, kad tie bija ēduši no tās zemes labības, un tur nebija vairs manna Israēla bērniem, bet tie ēda to gadu no Kanaāna zemes augļiem.
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 Un kad Jozuas bija pie Jērikus, tad viņš pacēla savas acis, un redzēja, un raugi, tur viens vīrs viņam stāvēja pretī, tam bija izvilkts zobens rokā, un Jozuas pie viņa gāja un sacīja: vai tu esi no mūsējiem vai no mūsu pretiniekiem?
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 Un tas sacīja: nē, bet es esmu Tā Kunga karaspēka virsnieks, tagad es esmu nācis. Tad Jozuas metās zemē uz savu vaigu un to pielūdza un uz to sacīja: ko mans Kungs runā uz savu kalpu?
Joshua fell down with his face to the ground in awe. Then he said, “What orders does my lord have for his servant?”
15 Tad Tā Kunga karaspēka virsnieks sacīja uz Jozua: novelc savas kurpes no savām kājām, jo tā vieta, kur tu stāvi, ir svēta. Un Jozuas tā darīja.
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.
