Josué 5

1 E succedeu que, ouvindo todos os reis dos amorrheos, que habitavam d'esta banda do Jordão, ao occidente, e todos os reis dos cananeos, que estavam ao pé do mar, que o Senhor tinha seccado as aguas do Jordão, de diante dos filhos d'Israel, até que passámos, derreteu-se-lhes o coração, e não houve mais animo n'elles, por causa dos filhos d'Israel.

And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites who [were] on the side of Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites who [were] by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of Jordan from before the children of Israel, until we had passed over, that their heart melted; neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.

2 N'aquelle tempo disse o Senhor a Josué: Faze facas de pedra, e torna a circumcidar segunda vez aos filhos d'Israel.

At that time the LORD said to Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.

3 Então Josué fez para si facas de pedra, e circumcidou aos filhos d'Israel no monte dos prepucios.

And Joshua made him sharp knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.

4 E foi esta a causa por que Josué os circumcidou: todo o povo que tinha saido do Egypto, os machos, todos os homens de guerra, eram já mortos no deserto, pelo caminho, depois que sairam do Egypto.

And this [is] the cause why Joshua did circumcise: All the people that came out of Egypt, [that were] males, [even] all the men of war died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.

5 Porque todo o povo que saira estava circumcidado, mas a nenhum do povo que nascera no deserto, pelo caminho, depois de terem saido do Egypto, haviam circumcidado.

Now 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 from Egypt, [them] they had not circumcised.

6 Porque quarenta annos andaram os filhos d'Israel pelo deserto, até se acabar toda a nação, os homens de guerra, que sairam do Egypto, e não obedeceram á voz do Senhor: aos quaes o Senhor tinha jurado que lhes não havia de deixar ver a terra que o Senhor jurara a seus paes dar-nos; terra que mana leite e mel

For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people [that were] men of war who came out of Egypt were consumed, because they obeyed not the voice of the LORD: to whom the LORD swore that he would not show them the land which the LORD swore to their fathers that he would give us, a land that floweth with milk and honey.

7 Porém em seu logar poz a seus filhos; a estes Josué circumcidou: porquanto estavam incircumcisos, porque os não circumcidaram no caminho.

And their children, [whom] he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them by the way.

8 E aconteceu que, acabando de circumcidar a toda a nação, ficaram no seu logar no arraial, até que sararam.

And it came to pass when they had done circumcising all the people, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were whole.

9 Disse mais o Senhor a Josué: Hoje revolvi de sobre vós o opprobrio do Egypto; pelo que o nome d'aquelle logar se chamou Gilgal, até ao dia d'hoje.

And the LORD said to Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you: Wherefore the name of the place is called Gilgal to this day.

10 Estando pois os filhos d'Israel alojados em Gilgal, celebraram a paschoa no dia quatorze do mez, á tarde, nas campinas de Jericó.

And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.

11 E comeram do trigo da terra do anno antecedente, ao outro dia depois da paschoa, pães asmos e espigas tostadas, no mesmo dia.

And they ate of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes, and parched [corn] in the same day.

12 E cessou o manná no dia seguinte, depois que comeram do trigo da terra do anno antecedente; e os filhos d'Israel não tiveram mais manná: porém no mesmo anno comeram das novidades da terra de Canaan.

And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.

13 E succedeu que, estando Josué ao pé de Jericó, levantou os seus olhos, e olhou; e eis-que se poz em pé diante d'elle um homem que tinha na mão uma espada nua: e chegou-se Josué a elle, e disse-lhe: És tu dos nossos, ou dos nossos inimigos?

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 to him, and said to him, [Art] thou for us, or for our adversaries?

14 E disse elle: Não, mas venho agora como principe do exercito do Senhor. Então Josué se prostrou sobre o seu rosto na terra, e o adorou, e disse-lhe: Que diz meu senhor ao seu servo?

And he said, No; but [as] captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and said to him, What saith my lord to his servant?

15 Então disse o principe do exercito do Senhor a Josué: Descalça os sapatos de teus pés, porque o logar em que estás é sancto. E fez Josué assim.

And the captain of the LORD'S host said to Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot, for the place on which thou standest is holy: and Joshua did so.
