Josué 5
1 E sucedeu que, ouvindo todos os reis dos amorreus, que habitavam desta banda do Jordão, ao ocidente, e todos os reis dos cananeus, que estavam ao pé do mar, que o Senhor tinha secado as águas do Jordão, de diante dos filhos de Israel, até que passamos, derreteu-se-lhes o coração, e não houve mais ânimo neles, por causa dos filhos de Israel.
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 the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, their heart melted, and there was no more spirit in them, because of the children of Israel.
2 Naquele tempo disse o Senhor a Josué: Faze facas de pedra, e torna a circuncidar segunda vez aos filhos de Israel.
At that time, the LORD said to Joshua, “Make flint knives, and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.”
3 Então Josué fez para si facas de pedra, e circuncidou aos filhos de Israel no monte dos prepúcios.
Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
4 E foi esta a causa por que Josué os circuncidou: todo o povo que tinha saído do Egito, os machos, todos os homens de guerra, eram já mortos no deserto, pelo caminho, depois que sairam do Egito.
This is the reason Joshua circumcised them: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way, after they came out of Egypt.
5 Porque todo o povo que saira estava circuncidado, mas a nenhum do povo que nascera no deserto, pelo caminho, depois de terem saído do Egito, haviam circuncidado.
For all the people who came out were circumcised; but all the people who were born in the wilderness along the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.
6 Porque quarenta anos andaram os filhos de Israel pelo deserto, até se acabar toda a nação, os homens de guerra, que sairam do Egito, e não obedeceram à voz do Senhor: aos quais o Senhor tinha jurado que lhes não havia de deixar ver a terra que o Senhor jurara a seus pais dar-nos; terra que mana leite e mel
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness until all the nation, even the men of war who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they didn’t listen to the LORD’s voice. The LORD swore to them that he wouldn’t let them see the land which the LORD swore to their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Porém em seu lugar pôs a seus filhos; a estes Josué circuncidou: porquanto estavam incircuncisos, porque os não circuncidaram no caminho.
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 E aconteceu que, acabando de circuncidar a toda a nação, ficaram no seu lugar no arraial, até que sararam.
When they were done circumcising the whole nation, they stayed in their places in the camp until they were healed.
9 Disse mais o Senhor a Josué: Hoje revolvi de sobre vós o opróbrio do Egito; pelo que o nome daquele lugar se chamou Gilgal, até ao dia de hoje.
The LORD said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal to this day.
10 Estando pois os filhos de Israel alojados em Gilgal, celebraram a pascoa no dia quatorze do mes, à tarde, nas campinas de Jericó.
The children of Israel encamped in Gilgal. They 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 ano antecedente, ao outro dia depois da pascoa, pães asmos e espigas tostadas, no mesmo dia.
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 E cessou o maná no dia seguinte, depois que comeram do trigo da terra do ano antecedente; e os filhos de Israel não tiveram mais maná: porém no mesmo ano comeram das novidades da terra de Canaan.
The manna ceased on the next day, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. The children of Israel didn’t have manna any more, but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
13 E sucedeu que, estando Josué ao pé de Jericó, levantou os seus olhos, e olhou; e eis que se pôs em pé diante dele um homem que tinha na mão uma espada nua: e chegou-se Josué a ele, e disse-lhe: És tu dos nossos, ou dos nossos inimigos?
When Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, 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 enemies?”
14 E disse ele: Não, mas venho agora como príncipe do exército 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?
He said, “No; but I have come now as commander of the LORD’s army.” Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and asked him, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
15 Então disse o príncipe do exército do Senhor a Josué: Descalça os sapatos de teus pés, porque o lugar em que estás é santo. E fez Josué assim.
The prince of the LORD’s army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals, for the place on which you stand is holy.” Joshua did so.
