< Joshua 5 >

1 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.
E quando todos os reis dos amorreus, que estavam da outra parte do Jordão ao ocidente, e todos os reis dos cananeus, que estavam próximos do mar, ouviram como o SENHOR havia secado as águas do Jordão diante dos filhos de Israel até que passaram, desfaleceu seu coração, e não houve mais espírito neles diante dos filhos de Israel.
2 At that time Jehovah said to Joshua, Make thee stone-knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.
Naquele tempo o SENHOR disse a Josué: Faze-te facas afiadas, e volta a circuncidar a segunda vez aos filhos de Israel.
3 And Joshua made him stone-knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of Araloth.
E Josué se fez facas afiadas, e circuncidou aos filhos de Israel no monte dos prepúcios.
4 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.
Esta é a causa pela qual Josué os circuncidou: todo aquele povo que havia saído do Egito, os homens, todos os homens de guerra, haviam morrido no deserto pelo caminho, depois que saíram do Egito.
5 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.
Porque todos os do povo que haviam saído, estavam circuncidados: mas todo aquele povo que havia nascido no deserto pelo caminho, depois que saíram do Egito, não estavam circuncidados.
6 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.
Porque os filhos de Israel andaram pelo deserto por quarenta anos, até que toda a gente dos homens de guerra que haviam saído do Egito foi consumida, porquanto não obedeceram à voz do SENHOR; pelo qual o SENHOR lhes jurou que não lhes deixaria ver a terra, da qual o SENHOR havia jurado a seus pais que não as daria, terra que flui leite e mel.
7 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.
E os filhos deles, que ele havia feito suceder em seu lugar, Josué os circuncidou; pois eram incircuncisos, porque não haviam sido circuncidados pelo caminho.
8 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.
E quando acabaram de circuncidar toda a gente, ficaram no mesmo lugar no acampamento, até que sararam.
9 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.
E o SENHOR disse a Josué: Hoje tirei de vós a humilhação do Egito: pelo qual o nome daquele lugar foi chamado Gilgal, até hoje.
10 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.
E os filhos de Israel assentaram o acampamento em Gilgal, e celebraram a páscoa aos catorze dias do mês, pela tarde, nas planícies de Jericó.
11 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.
E ao outro dia da páscoa comeram do fruto da terra os pães sem levedura, e no mesmo dia espigas novas tostadas.
12 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.
E o maná cessou o dia seguinte, desde que começaram a comer do fruto da terra: e os filhos de Israel nunca mais tiveram maná, mas sim que comeram dos frutos da terra de Canaã aquele ano.
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 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?
E estando Josué próximo de Jericó, levantou seus olhos, e viu um homem que estava diante dele, o qual tinha uma espada nua em sua mão. E Josué indo até ele, lhe disse: És dos nossos, ou de nossos inimigos?
14 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?
E ele respondeu: Não; mas sim Príncipe do exército do SENHOR, agora vim. Então Josué prostrando-se sobre seu rosto em terra o adorou; e disse-lhe: Que diz meu Senhor a seu servo?
15 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.
E o Príncipe do exército do SENHOR respondeu a Josué: Tira teus sapatos de teus pés; porque o lugar onde estás é santo. E Josué o fez assim.
