< Josue 5 >
1 Pagkarinig ng lahat ng hari ng mga Amoreo sa kanlurang dako ng Jordan, at lahat ng hari ng mga Cananaeo, na nasa baybayin ng Malaking Dagat, na pinatuyo ni Yahweh ang tubig sa Jordan hanggang nakatawid ang bayan ng Israel, natunaw ang kanilang mga puso, at walang anumang espiritu sa kanila dahil sa mga Israelita.
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 Sa panahong iyon sinabi ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Gumawa ka ng mga kutsilyo mula sa matigas na bato at tuliin minsan pa ang lahat ng lalaki ng Israel.”
At that time Jehovah said to Joshua, Make thee stone-knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.
3 Pagkatapos gumawa mismo si Josue ng mga kutsilyo mula sa matigas na bato at tinuli ang lahat ng lalaki ng Israel sa Gibeat Haaralot.
And Joshua made him stone-knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of Araloth.
4 At ito ang dahilan na tinuli sila ni Josue: lahat ng lalaking lumabas sa Ehipto, kasama ang lahat ng kalalakihang mandirigma, ay namatay sa ilang habang daan, pagkatapos nilang lumabas sa Ehipto.
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 Kahit tinuli na ang lahat ng lalaking lumabas sa Ehipto, gayon man, walang batang lalaking ipinanganak sa ilang habang daang palabas ng Ehipto ay tinuli.
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 Naglakbay ang bayan ng Israel sa loob ng apatnapung taon sa ilang hanggang ang lahat ng tao, iyon ay, lahat ng kalalakihang mandirigma na nakalabas sa Ehipto ay namatay, dahil hindi nila sinunod ang tinig ni Yahweh. Ipinangako ni Yahweh sa kanila na hindi niya sila hahayaang makita ang lupaing ipinangako niya sa kanilang mga ninuno na ibibigay sa amin, isang lupaing umaapaw ang gatas at pulot.
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 Ang kanilang mga anak na inalagaan ni Yahweh kapalit nila na silang tinuli ni Josue, dahil hindi pa sila tinuli sa daan.
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 Nang tinuli silang lahat, nanatili sila sa kampo kung saan sila naroroon hanggang gumaling sila.
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 At sinabi ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Sa araw na ito inalis ko ang kahihiyan ng Ehipto mula sa inyo.” Kaya tinawag ang lugar na iyon sa pangalang Gilgal hanggang sa araw na ito.
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 Nagkampo ang bayan ng Israel sa Gilgal. Ipinagdiwang nila ang Paskua sa ikalabing apat na araw ng buwan, sa gabi, sa mga kapatagan ng Jerico.
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 At kinabukasan ng Paskua, sa araw mismong iyon, kinain nila ang ilan sa bunga ng lupain, tinapay na walang lebadura, at inihaw na butil.
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 Tumigil ang manna sa araw matapos nilang kainin ang bunga ng lupain. Wala ng manna para sa bayan ng Israel, pero kinain nila ang bunga ng lupain ng Canaan sa taong iyon.
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 Nang malapit na si Josue sa Jerico, tumingala siya at nakita, at masdan ito, isang lalaki ang nakatayo sa kaniyang harapan; hinugot niya ang kaniyang espada at ito at nasa kamay niya. Lumapit si Josue sa kaniya at sinabing, “Ikaw ba ay sa amin o para sa aming kaaway?”
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 Sinabi niya, “Wala sa alinman. Dahil ako ang pinuno ng hukbo ni Yahweh. Ngayon naparito ako.” Pagkatapos nagpatirapa si Josue sa lupa para sumamba at sinabi sa kaniya, “Ano ang sinasabi ng aking panginoon sa kaniyang lingkod?”
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 Sinabi ng pinununo ng hukbo ni Yahweh kay Josue, “Hubarin mo ang iyong sandalyas mula sa iyong mga paa, dahil banal ang lugar na iyong kinatatayuan.” At ginawa iyon ni Josue.
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.
