Josué 5
1 Quando todos os reis dos amorreus, que estavam além do Jordão para o oeste, e todos os reis dos cananeus, que estavam à beira-mar, ouviram como Javé tinha secado as águas do Jordão desde antes dos filhos de Israel até nós termos atravessado, seu coração derreteu, e não havia mais espírito neles, por causa dos filhos de Israel.
And it came to pass 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 that Jehovah had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.
2 Naquele tempo, Javé disse a Josué: “Faça facas de pedra, e circuncide novamente os filhos de Israel pela segunda vez”.
At that time Jehovah said to Joshua, Make thee stone-knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.
3 Josué se fez facas de pedra e circuncidou os filhos de Israel na colina dos prepúcios.
And Joshua made him stone-knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of Araloth.
4 Esta é a razão pela qual Josué os circuncidou: todas as pessoas que saíram do Egito, que eram homens, mesmo todos os homens de guerra, morreram no deserto ao longo do caminho, depois de terem saído do Egito.
And this is the cause why Joshua circumcised [them]: all the people that had come out of Egypt, the males, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way, after they came out of Egypt.
5 Pois todas as pessoas que saíram foram circuncidadas; mas todas as pessoas que nasceram no deserto ao longo do caminho, ao saírem do Egito, não tinham sido circuncidadas.
For all the people that came out were circumcised; but all the people that were born in the wilderness on the way, after they came out of Egypt, [them] had they not circumcised.
6 Pois as crianças de Israel caminharam quarenta anos no deserto até que toda a nação, mesmo os homens de guerra que saíram do Egito, foram consumidos, porque não ouviram a voz de Iavé. Javé jurou-lhes que não os deixaria ver a terra que Javé jurou a seus pais que nos daria, uma terra que fluiria com leite e mel.
For the children of Israel had walked forty years in the wilderness, till the whole nation of men of war had perished who had come out of Egypt, who had not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah; to whom Jehovah had sworn that he would not show them the land which Jehovah had sworn unto their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Seus filhos, que ele criou em seu lugar, foram circuncidados por Josué, pois eram incircuncisos, pois não os tinham circuncidado no caminho.
And their sons [whom] he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised, for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.
8 Quando terminaram de circuncidar toda a nação, eles permaneceram em seus lugares no acampamento até serem curados.
And it came to pass when the whole nation had finished being circumcised, that they abode in their place in the camp, till they were whole.
9 Yahweh disse a Joshua: “Hoje eu afastei de você a reprovação do Egito”. Portanto, o nome daquele lugar foi chamado de Gilgal até hoje.
And Jehovah said to Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. And the name of the place was called Gilgal to this day.
10 As crianças de Israel acamparam em Gilgal. Eles guardaram a Páscoa no décimo quarto dia do mês, à noite, nas planícies de Jericó.
And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and held the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at even, in the plains of Jericho.
11 Eles comeram bolos ázimos e grãos ressequidos dos produtos da terra no dia seguinte após a Páscoa, no mesmo dia.
And they ate of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened loaves, and roasted [corn] on that same day.
12 O maná cessou no dia seguinte, depois de terem comido dos produtos da terra. Os filhos de Israel não tinham mais maná, mas comeram do fruto da terra de Canaã naquele ano.
And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they had eaten of the old corn of the land; and there was no more manna for the children of Israel; and they ate of the produce of the land of Canaan that year.
13 Quando Josué estava perto de Jericó, ele levantou os olhos e olhou, e eis que um homem estava diante dele com sua espada desembainhada na mão. Josué foi até ele e lhe disse: “Você é por nós, ou por 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 before him with his sword drawn in his hand. And Joshua went to him, and said to him: Art thou for us, or for our enemies?
14 Ele disse: “Não; mas eu vim agora como comandante do exército de Yahweh”. Josué caiu com o rosto em terra e adorou e lhe perguntou: “O que meu senhor diz a seu servo?
And he said, No; for [as] captain of the army of Jehovah am I now come. Then Joshua fell upon his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said to him, What saith my lord unto his servant?
15 O príncipe do exército de Yahweh disse a Josué: “Tire suas sandálias, pois o lugar em que você está é sagrado”. Josué o fez.
And the captain of Jehovah's army said to Joshua, Loose thy sandal from off thy foot: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.
