Joshua 5:1-3
Revised Geneva Translation
5 Now when all the kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the children of Israel until they had gone over, their hearts fainted. And there was no courage in them anymore, because of the children of Israel.
2 At the same time, the LORD said to Joshua, “Make yourself sharp knives, return, and circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.”
3 Then Joshua made himself sharp knives and circumcised the sons of Israel on the Hill of the Foreskins.
