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 came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites who were over the Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how that Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan, from before the sons of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because of the sons 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, said Yahweh unto Joshua, Make thee knives of flint, —and again circumcise the sons of Israel, a 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.
So Joshua made him knives of flint, —and circumcised the sons of Israel, at the Hill of 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.
Now, this, is the cause why Joshua did circumcise, —all the people who came forth out of Egypt, who were males, all the men of war, died in the desert, by the way, after they came forth 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, though all the people who came forth had been circumcised, yet, all the people who were born in the desert by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt, had they not 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.
Because, for forty years, did the sons of Israel journey in the desert, until all the nation who were men of war, who came forth out of Egypt, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voice of Yahweh, —unto whom Yahweh sware that he would not let them see the land, which Yahweh sware unto their fathers, that he would give unto 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.
Their sons, therefore, whom he had raised up in their stead, them, did Joshua circumcise, —for, uncircumcised, they were, in that they had not circumcised them by 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 so it came to pass, when they had made an end of circumcising all the nation, they remained in their place, 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.
Then said Yahweh unto Joshua, To-day, have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of that place is called Gilgal ["a rolling away"]unto 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.
Thus then the sons of Israel encamped in Gilgal, —and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the waste 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.
And they did eat of the corn of the land, on the morrow of the passover, unleavened cakes and parched ears of corn, —on this selfsame 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.
And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they had eaten of the corn of the land, neither had the sons of Israel manna any more, —so they did eat of the yield of the land of Canaan throughout 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?
And it came to pass, while Joshua was at Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes, and looked, and lo! a man standing over against him, with his sword drawn, in his hand, —so Joshua went unto him, and said to him, For us, art thou, 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—Nay, but, I, as prince of the host of Yahweh, have, now, come. So Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said unto him, What is my lord speaking unto 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.
Then said the prince of the host of Yahweh unto Joshua—Slip off thy sandals from thy feet, for, as for the place whereon thou art standing, holy, it is. And Joshua did so.
