Josué 5

1 E quando todos os reis dos amorreus, que estavam da outra parte do Jordão ao ocidente, e todos os reis dos cananeus, que estavam próximos do mar, ouviram como o SENHOR havia secado as águas do Jordão diante dos filhos de Israel até que passaram, desfaleceu seu coração, e não houve mais espírito neles diante dos filhos de 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 Naquele tempo o SENHOR disse a Josué: Faze-te facas afiadas, e volta a circuncidar a segunda vez aos filhos de Israel.

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

3 E Josué se fez facas afiadas, e circuncidou aos filhos de Israel no monte dos prepúcios.

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

4 Esta é a causa pela qual Josué os circuncidou: todo aquele povo que havia saído do Egito, os homens, todos os homens de guerra, haviam morrido no deserto pelo caminho, depois que saíram do Egito.

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 todos os do povo que haviam saído, estavam circuncidados: mas todo aquele povo que havia nascido no deserto pelo caminho, depois que saíram do Egito, não estavam circuncidados.

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 os filhos de Israel andaram pelo deserto por quarenta anos, até que toda a gente dos homens de guerra que haviam saído do Egito foi consumida, porquanto não obedeceram à voz do SENHOR; pelo qual o SENHOR lhes jurou que não lhes deixaria ver a terra, da qual o SENHOR havia jurado a seus pais que não as daria, terra que flui 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 E os filhos deles, que ele havia feito suceder em seu lugar, Josué os circuncidou; pois eram incircuncisos, porque não haviam sido circuncidados pelo 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 quando acabaram de circuncidar toda a gente, ficaram no mesmo lugar no acampamento, 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 healed.

9 E o SENHOR disse a Josué: Hoje tirei de vós a humilhação do Egito: pelo qual o nome daquele lugar foi chamado Gilgal, até hoje.

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

10 E os filhos de Israel assentaram o acampamento em Gilgal, e celebraram a páscoa aos catorze dias do mês, pela tarde, nas planícies 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 ao outro dia da páscoa comeram do fruto da terra os pães sem levedura, e no mesmo dia espigas novas tostadas.

And they ate of the old grain of the land on the next day after the passover, unleavened cakes, and roasted grain in the same day.

12 E o maná cessou o dia seguinte, desde que começaram a comer do fruto da terra: e os filhos de Israel nunca mais tiveram maná, mas sim que comeram dos frutos da terra de Canaã aquele ano.

And the manna ceased on the next day after they had eaten of the old grain 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 estando Josué próximo de Jericó, levantou seus olhos, e viu um homem que estava diante dele, o qual tinha uma espada nua em sua mão. E Josué indo até ele, lhe disse: És dos nossos, ou de 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 opposite 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 ele respondeu: Não; mas sim Príncipe do exército do SENHOR, agora vim. Então Josué prostrando-se sobre seu rosto em terra o adorou; e disse-lhe: Que diz meu Senhor a seu servo?

And he said, Nay; but as captain of the host of the LORD am I now come. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said to him, What saith my lord to his servant?

15 E o Príncipe do exército do SENHOR respondeu a Josué: Tira teus sapatos de teus pés; porque o lugar onde estás é santo. E Josué o fez 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.
