Josue 5
Ang Pulong Sa Dios
Ang Pagtuli
5 Nabalitaan sa tanang mga hari nga Amorihanon sa kasadpan sa Jordan ug sa tanang mga hari nga Canaanhon sa kabaybayonan sa Dagat sa Mediteraneo kon giunsa pagpamala sa Ginoo ang Suba sa Jordan sa dihang mitabok ang mga Israelinhon. Busa nahadlok sila ug nawad-ag kaisog sa pagpakiggira sa mga Israelinhon.
2 Niadtong higayona miingon ang Ginoo kang Josue, “Paghimog mga kutsilyo gikan sa batong bantilis ug pagpanuli sa ikaduhang higayon sa mga Israelinhon.” 3 Busa naghimo si Josue ug mga kutsilyo, ug gipangtuli ang mga Israelinhon didto sa Bungtod sa Gitulian.
4-6 Mao kini ang hinungdan kon nganong gipangtuli ni Josue ang mga lalaki: Sa dihang mihawa ang mga Israelinhon sa Ehipto, ang tanang mga lalaki natuli na. Apan ang mga nangatawo sulod sa 40 ka tuig nga paglakaw nila sa kamingawan wala matuli. Ug niadtong panahona, ang mga lalaki nga anaa sa hustong edad sa pagpakiggira nangamatay tungod kay wala sila mituman sa Ginoo. Giingnan sila sa Ginoo nga dili gayod nila makita ang maayo ug mabungahon nga yuta[a] nga iyang gisaad ngadto sa ilang mga katigulangan nga ihatag kanila. 7 Ang ilang mga anak nga lalaki nga mipuli kanila maoy gipangtuli ni Josue, kay wala kini sila matuli niadtong panahon sa ilang paglakaw. 8 Human sila matuli, nagpabilin sila sa ilang kampo hangtod nga naayo sila.
9 Unya miingon ang Ginoo kang Josue, “Karong adlawa gikuha ko gikan kaninyo ang kaulawan sa inyong pagkaulipon sa Ehipto.” Busa kadtong dapita gitawag nga Gilgal[b] hangtod karon.
10 Samtang nagkampo ang mga Israelinhon sa Gilgal, sa kapatagan sa Jerico, gisaulog nila ang Pista sa Paglabay sa Anghel sa gabii sa ika-14 nga adlaw sa unang bulan. 11 Pagkaugma, nangaon sila sa mga abot gikan niadtong yutaa: sinanlag nga trigo ug pan nga walay patubo. 12 Sukad niadto miundang na ang pagpangahulog sa manna, ug wala nay manna ang mga Israelinhon. Ang ilang pagkaon sukad niadtong tuiga mao na ang mga abot gikan sa yuta sa Canaan.
13 Samtang didto si Josue duol sa Jerico, may nakita siyang tawo nga nagatindog sa iyang atubangan nga nagkupot ug espada. Gipangutana siya ni Josue, “Kaabin ka ba namo o kaaway?” 14 Mitubag ang tawo, “Dili ninyo ako kaabin o kaaway. Mianhi ako dinhi ingon nga pangulo sa kasundalohan sa Ginoo.” Mihapa si Josue sa pagtahod ug unya nangutana kaniya, “Sir, unsay gusto nimong isugo kanako nga imong alagad?” 15 Mitubag ang pangulo sa kasundalohan sa Ginoo, “Huboa ang imong sandalyas, kay balaan nga dapit ang imong gibarogan.” Ug gituman ni Josue ang gisugo kaniya.
約書亞記 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
在吉甲行割禮
5 在約旦河西岸一帶的亞摩利眾王和沿海一帶的迦南眾王，聽說耶和華為了讓以色列人過河而使約旦河成為乾地，都嚇得膽戰心驚，勇氣盡失。
2 那時，耶和華對約書亞說：「你用火石做成刀子，再次給以色列人行割禮。」 3 約書亞便用火石做成刀子，在割禮山給以色列人行了割禮。 4 約書亞給他們舉行割禮，是因為所有從埃及出來、能夠作戰的男子都死在曠野的路上。 5 從埃及出來的男子都受過割禮，而後來在曠野出生的以色列人都沒有受過割禮。 6 以色列人在曠野飄泊了四十年，直到從埃及出來可以作戰的男子都死了為止，因為他們不聽從耶和華的話。耶和華向他們起誓，不讓他們看見那奶蜜之鄉，衪曾應許他們祖先要把那個地方賜給他們。 7 耶和華立他們的子孫代替他們。這新一代的以色列人沒有受過割禮，因為在路上沒有為他們行過割禮。於是，約書亞為他們行了割禮。
8 全體民眾受了割禮後，都留在自己的營內，直到康復為止。 9 耶和華對約書亞說：「今天我除去了你們在埃及受的羞辱。」因此，那地方叫吉甲[a]，沿用至今。
在迦南守逾越節
10 以色列人都在耶利哥平原上的吉甲紮營，並於一月十四日傍晚在那裡守逾越節。 11 第二天他們就吃當地的穀物，吃無酵餅和烤麥穗。 12 他們吃了當地出產後的第二天，嗎哪便不再降下，以色列人再沒有嗎哪吃了。那一年他們開始吃迦南的出產。
耶和華軍隊的元帥
13 約書亞走近耶利哥，舉目看見一個人手裡拿著拔出來的劍站在他面前。約書亞上前去問道：「你是來幫助我們的，還是來幫助我們敵人的？」 14 那人答道：「都不是，我來是做耶和華軍隊的統帥。」約書亞就俯伏下拜說：「我主，有什麼話要吩咐僕人？」 15 耶和華軍隊的統帥對約書亞說：「把你腳上的鞋脫下！因為你站的地方是聖潔的。」約書亞便把鞋脫下來。

Joshua 5
King James Version
5 And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, which were on the side of Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites, which were by the sea, heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of Jordan from before the children of Israel, until we were passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.
2 At that time the Lord said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.
3 And Joshua made him sharp knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
4 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 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 out of Egypt, them they had not circumcised.
6 For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people that were men of war, which came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they obeyed not the voice of the Lord: unto whom the Lord sware that he would not shew them the land, which the Lord sware unto their fathers that he would give us, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
7 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 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 whole.
9 And the Lord said unto Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Wherefore the name of the place is called Gilgal unto this day.
10 And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and kept the passover on the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plains of Jericho.
11 And they did eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened cakes, and parched corn in the selfsame day.
12 And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the old corn of the land; neither had the children of Israel manna any more; but they did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?
14 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 did worship, and said unto him, What saith my Lord unto his servant?
15 And the captain of the Lord's host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.
Joshua 5
Jubilee Bible 2000
5 ¶ And it came to pass, when all the kings of the Amorites, who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites, who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the sons of Israel until we had passed, that their heart melted, and there was no more spirit in them before the sons of Israel.
2 At that time the LORD said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.
3 And Joshua made himself sharp knives and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
4 And this is the reason why Joshua circumcised them: All the people that had come out of Egypt, that were males, even all the men of war, had died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.
5 Now all the people that had come out were circumcised; but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way, after they came forth out of Egypt, were not circumcised.
6 For the sons of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness until all the people that were men of war, who had come out of Egypt, were consumed because they did not listen to the voice of the LORD; therefore, the LORD swore unto them that he would not let them see the land which the LORD had sworn unto their fathers that he would give us, a land that flows with milk and honey.
7 But their sons, whom he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised; for they were uncircumcised because they had not been circumcised by the way.
8 And when they had finished circumcising all the people, they abode in the same place in the camp until they were whole.
9 And the LORD said unto Joshua, Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. Therefore, the name of the place is called Gilgal unto this day.
10 ¶ And the sons of Israel encamped in Gilgal and celebrated the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, in the plains of Jericho.
11 And they ate of the fruit of the land, unleavened cakes, on the next day after the passover and parched new ears of grain in the same day.
12 And the manna ceased on the next day after they had begun to eat of the fruit of the land; and the sons of Israel never had manna again; but they ate of the fruits of the land of Canaan that year.
13 ¶ And Joshua, being near Jericho, lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, there stood a man over against him with his sword drawn in his hand. And Joshua went unto him and said unto him, Art thou one of us or one of our adversaries?
14 And he said, No, but I am the Prince of the host of the LORD; now I am come. Then Joshua falling upon his face in the earth worshipped him and said unto him, What saith my lord unto his slave?
15 And the Prince of the LORD’s host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place on which thou dost stand is holy. And Joshua did so.
