Hohua 5

1 A, no te rongonga o nga kingi katoa o nga Amori, o era ki te taha ki te hauauru o Horano, me nga kingi katoa o nga Kanaani, o era i te moana, ki te whakamaroketanga a Ihowa i nga wai o Horano i te aroaro o nga tama a Iharaira a whiti noa matou, n a ka ngohe noa o ratou ngakau, kahore atu hoki o ratou wairua, i te wehi ki nga tama a Iharaira.

And it happened, when all the kings of the Amorites, who were beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were by the sea, heard how that YHWH had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.

2 Na i taua wa ka mea a Ihowa ki a Hohua, Hanga etahi maripi kohatu mau, a ka tuarua i te kotinga o nga tama a Iharaira.

At that time, YHWH said to Joshua, "Make flint knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time."

3 A hanga ana e Hohua etahi maripi kohatu, a kotia iho nga tama a Iharaira ki te pukepuke o nga kiri matamata.

Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the Hill of the Foreskins.

4 A ko te take tenei i kokoti ai a Hohua: ko te hunga katoa i puta mai i Ihipa, ko nga tane, ko nga tangata hapai patu, i mate ki te ara i te koraha, i muri i to ratou putanga mai i Ihipa.

This is the reason Joshua circumcised: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.

5 Na ko te hunga katoa i puta mai he mea kokoti katoa: tena ko te hunga i whanau ki te ara i te koraha i to ratou putanga mai i Ihipa, kihai ena i kotia e ratou.

For all the people who came out were circumcised; but all the people who were born in the wilderness by the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.

6 E wha tekau hoki nga tau i haere ai nga tama a Iharaira i te koraha, a poto noa te hunga hapai puta katoa i puta mai i Ihipa, mo ratou kihai i rongo ki te reo o Ihowa: ko nga tangata hoki i oati nei a Ihowa ki a ratou, e kore e whakakitea ki a ra tou te whenua i oati ai a Ihowa ki o ratou matua kia homai e ia ki a tatou, te whenua hoki e rerengia ana e te waiu, e te honi.

For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, perished, because they did not listen to the voice of YHWH, those to whom YHWH swore that they would not see the land which YHWH swore to their ancestors that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

7 A, ko a ratou tamariki i whakaarahia ake e ia hei whakakapi mo ratou, ko ratou i kotia e Hohua: no te mea kahore o ratou kotinga; kahore nei hoki ratou i kotia i te huarahi.

And their children, whom he raised up in their place, were circumcised by Joshua; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.

8 A, no ka poto katoa nga tangata te kokoti e ratou, ka noho ratou ki te puni ki o ratou wahi a mahu noa.

And it happened, when they were done circumcising all the nation, that they stayed in their places in the camp until they were healed.

9 Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Hohua, No tenei ra i hurihia atu ai e ahau te taunutanga o Ihipa i a koutou. Na reira i huaina ai te ingoa o taua wahi ko Kirikara a tae noa mai ki tenei ra.

And YHWH said to Joshua, "Today I have rolled away the disgrace of Egypt from off you." Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal, to this day.

10 A i noho nga tama a Iharaira ki Kirikara; a i mahi ratou i te kapenga i te tekau ma wha o nga ra o te marama i te ahiahi, i nga mania o Heriko.

The children of Israel camped in Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.

11 A, no te aonga ake i te kapenga, i kai ai ratou i te witi o te whenua, he keke kihai i rewenatia, me te witi pahuhu, no taua rangi pu ano.

They ate unleavened cakes and parched grain of the produce of the land on the next day after the Passover, in the same day.

12 A i whakamutua te mana i te aonga ake o te ra, i muri i ta ratou kainga i te witi ake o te whenua; kahore atu hoki he mana ma nga tama a Iharaira; heoti, kai ana ratou i nga hua o te whenua o Kanaana i taua tau.

The manna ceased on the next day, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. The children of Israel did not have manna any more; but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.

13 A, i a Hohua i Heriko, na ka anga ake ona kanohi, ka titiro, na he tangata e tu mai ana i tona aroaro, ko tana hoari hoki i tona ringa, unu rawa: na ka haere atu a Hohua ki a ia, ka mea ki a ia, mo matou ranei koe, mo o matou hoariri ranei?

It happened, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and look, a man stood in front of him with his sword drawn in his hand. Joshua went to him, and said to him, "Are you for us, or for our adversaries?"

14 Ka mea ia, Kahore; engari he rangatira no te ope a Ihowa ahau i haere mai nei. Na ka tapapa a Hohua ki te whenua, ka koropiko, ka mea ki a ia, E pehea mai ana toku ariki ki tana pononga?

And he said to him, "Truly I am the commander of the army of YHWH. Now I have come." And Joshua fell facedown to the ground and worshipped, and said to him, "What does my lord say to his servant?"

15 A ka mea te rangatira o te ope a Ihowa ki a Hohua, Wetekina tou hu i tou waewae; he tapu hoki te wahi e tu na koe. A pera ana a Hohua.

The commander of the army of YHWH said to Joshua, "Take your shoes off of your feet; for the place on which you stand is holy." Joshua did so.
