< Joshua 5 >
1 Nígbà tí gbogbo àwọn ọba Amori ti ìlà-oòrùn Jordani àti gbogbo àwọn ọba Kenaani tí ń bẹ létí òkun gbọ́ bí Olúwa ti mú Jordani gbẹ ní iwájú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli títí ti a fi kọjá, ọkàn wọn pami, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kò ní ìgboyà mọ́ láti dojúkọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli.
Therefore, after all the kings of the Amorites, who were living across the Jordan toward the western region, and all the kings of Canaan, who possessed the places beside the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel, until they crossed over it, their heart was broken, and there remained in them no spirit, out of fear at the entrance of the sons of Israel.
2 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí fún Joṣua pé, “Fi akọ òkúta ṣe abẹ kí o sì kọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní ilà ní ìgbà ẹ̀ẹ̀kejì.”
So at that time, the Lord said to Joshua: “Make for yourself knives of stone, and circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.”
3 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Joṣua sì ṣe abẹ akọ òkúta, ó sì kọ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ní ilà, ní Gibiati-Haralotu.
He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
4 Wàyí o, ìdí tí Joṣua fi kọ wọ́n nílà nìyìí. Gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó ti Ejibiti jáde wá, gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin ogun kú ní aginjù ní ọ̀nà lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí wọ́n jáde kúrò ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti.
Now this is the reason for the second circumcision: All the people who departed from Egypt of the male gender, all the men fit for war, died in the desert during the very long wandering way;
5 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé, gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin tó jáde láti Ejibiti ni a ti kọ ní ilà, síbẹ̀ gbogbo ènìyàn tí a bí nínú aginjù lẹ́yìn tí wọ́n jáde ní Ejibiti ni wọn kò kọ ní ilà.
all these had been circumcised. But the people who were born in the desert,
6 Àwọn ará Israẹli rìn ní aginjù fún ogójì ọdún títí gbogbo àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó tó ogun n jà nígbà tí wọ́n kúrò ni Ejibiti fi kú, nítorí wọn kò gbọ́rọ̀ sí Olúwa. Nítorí Olúwa ti búra fún wọn pé wọn kò ní rí ilẹ̀ tí òun ṣe ìlérí fún àwọn baba wọn láti fi fun wa, ilẹ̀ tí ń sàn fún wàrà àti fún oyin.
throughout the forty years of the journey in the very broad wilderness, were uncircumcised, until the ones who had not listened to the voice of the Lord were consumed. For he had sworn to them before, that he would not reveal to them the land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ó gbé àwọn ọmọ wọn dìde dípò wọn, àwọn wọ̀nyí sì ni Joṣua kọ ní ilà. Wọ́n wà ní aláìkọlà nítorí a kò tí ì kọ wọ́n ní ilà ní ojú ọ̀nà.
The sons of these ones succeeded to the place of their fathers, and they were circumcised by Joshua. For they were uncircumcised, just as they had been born, and no one had circumcised them along the way.
8 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè náà kọ ilà tan, wọ́n dúró ní ibi tí wọ́n wà ní ibùdó títí ilà wọn fi jinná.
Then, after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp until they were healed.
9 Nígbà náà ní Olúwa wí fún Joṣua pé, “Ní òní ni mo yí ẹ̀gàn Ejibiti kúrò ní orí yín.” Nítorí náà ni a ṣe ń pe orúkọ ibẹ̀ ní Gilgali títí ó fi di òní yìí.
And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have taken away from you the disgrace of Egypt.” And the name of that place was called Gilgal, even to the present day.
10 Ní ìrọ̀lẹ́ ọjọ́ kẹrìnlá oṣù náà, nígbà tí wọ́n pàgọ́ ní Gilgali ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ Jeriko, àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì ṣe ọdún àjọ ìrékọjá.
And the sons of Israel stayed at Gilgal, and they kept the Passover, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, in the plains of Jericho.
11 Ní ọjọ́ kejì àjọ ìrékọjá, ní ọjọ́ náà gan an ni, wọ́n jẹ nínú àwọn ìre oko ilẹ̀ náà: àkàrà aláìwú, àti ọkà yíyan.
And on the following day, they ate unleavened bread from the grain of the land, and cooked grain, of the same year.
12 Manna náà sì tan ní ọjọ́ kejì tí wọ́n jẹ oúnjẹ tí ilẹ̀ náà mú jáde, kò sì sí manna kankan mọ́ fún àwọn ará Israẹli, ṣùgbọ́n ní ọdún náà wọ́n jẹ ìre oko ilẹ̀ Kenaani.
And the manna ceased after they ate from the grain of the land. And the sons of Israel no longer made use of that food. Instead, they ate from the grain of the present year, from the land of Canaan.
13 Nígbà tí Joṣua súnmọ́ Jeriko, ó wo òkè ó sì rí ọkùnrin kan tí ó dúró ní iwájú rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú idà ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀. Joṣua sì tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ó sì bi í pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ wà fún wa tàbí fún ọ̀tá a wa?”
And when Joshua was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and he saw a man standing opposite him, holding a drawn sword. And he went to him and said, “Are you one of ours, or one of our adversaries?”
14 “Kì í ṣe fún èyíkéyìí ó fèsì, ṣùgbọ́n gẹ́gẹ́ bí olórí ogun Olúwa ni mo wá nísinsin yìí.” Nígbà náà ni Joṣua sì wólẹ̀ ní iwájú u rẹ̀ ní ìbẹ̀rù, ó sì bi í léèrè, “Kí ni Olúwa ní í sọ fún ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀?”
And he responded: “Not at all. Instead, I am a prince of the host of the Lord, and now I have arrived.” Joshua fell prone on the ground. And reverencing, he said, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
15 Olórí ogun Olúwa sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Bọ́ sálúbàtà rẹ kúrò ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ, nítorí pé ibi tí ìwọ dúró sí yìí, ilẹ̀ mímọ́ ni.” Joṣua sì ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀.
He said: “Remove your shoes from your feet. For the place on which you stand is holy.” And Joshua did just as he had been commanded.
