Yosua 5
1 Semua raja Amori di sebelah barat Sungai Yordan, dan semua raja Kanaan di pesisir Laut Tengah mendengar bahwa Sungai Yordan telah dikeringkan oleh TUHAN selama umat Israel menyeberangi sungai itu. Maka mereka menjadi takut dan gentar karena orang Israel.
And it happened, 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 how that YHWH had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.
2 Pada waktu itu TUHAN berkata kepada Yosua, "Buatlah pisau dari batu, lalu adakanlah lagi upacara penyunatan untuk orang-orang Israel."
At that time, YHWH said to Joshua, "Make flint knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time."
3 Maka Yosua melaksanakan perintah TUHAN, dan menyunat orang-orang Israel di tempat yang dinamakan Bukit Penyunatan.
Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the Hill of the Foreskins.
4 Pada waktu orang-orang Israel keluar dari Mesir, semua orang laki-lakinya sudah disunat. Tetapi ketika mereka mengembara di padang pasir empat puluh tahun lamanya, anak-anak mereka yang laki-laki seorang pun belum ada yang disunat. Dan pada akhir masa empat puluh tahun itu, orang laki-laki yang ketika keluar dari Mesir telah mencapai umur yang patut untuk masuk tentara, semuanya sudah mati, karena tidak menurut perintah TUHAN. Maka sesuai dengan sumpah TUHAN, mereka tidak diizinkan melihat negeri yang makmur dan subur itu yang dijanjikan-Nya kepada nenek moyang mereka.
This is the reason Joshua circumcised: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the way, after they came out of Egypt.
For all the people who came out were circumcised; but all the people who were born in the wilderness by the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.
For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, perished, because they did not listen to the voice of YHWH, those to whom YHWH swore that they would not see the land which YHWH swore to their ancestors that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Itulah sebabnya semua anak lelaki mereka belum disunat. Generasi baru inilah yang disunat oleh Yosua.
And their children, whom he raised up in their place, were circumcised by Joshua; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.
8 Sesudah mereka semua selesai disunat, mereka tinggal di perkemahan sampai luka mereka sembuh.
And it happened, when they were done circumcising all the nation, that they stayed in their places in the camp until they were healed.
9 TUHAN berkata kepada Yosua, "Hari ini kehinaan kalian sebagai budak-budak di Mesir sudah Kulenyapkan." Itulah sebabnya tempat itu dinamakan Gilgal sampai pada saat ini.
And YHWH said to Joshua, "Today I have rolled away the disgrace of Egypt from off you." Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal, to this day.
10 Sementara berkemah di Gilgal di dataran dekat Yerikho, umat Israel merayakan Paskah pada sore hari tanggal empat belas bulan itu.
The children of Israel camped in Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.
11 Besoknya, untuk pertama kalinya mereka makan makanan hasil negeri Kanaan, yaitu: roti tidak beragi dan gandum panggang.
They ate unleavened cakes and parched grain of the produce of the land on the next day after the Passover, in the same day.
12 Pada hari itu juga manna tidak lagi jatuh dari langit, dan orang Israel berhenti makan manna. Sejak itu mereka makan hasil tanah Kanaan.
The manna ceased on the next day, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. The children of Israel did not have manna any more; but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
13 Pada suatu waktu Yosua berada di dekat Yerikho. Tiba-tiba ia melihat seorang laki-laki berdiri di depannya dengan pedang terhunus. Yosua mendekati orang itu, dan bertanya, "Engkau ini kawan, atau lawan?"
It happened, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and look, a man stood in front of him with his sword drawn in his hand. Joshua went to him, and said to him, "Are you for us, or for our adversaries?"
14 "Bukan kawan, dan juga bukan lawan," jawab orang itu. "Aku datang ke sini sebagai panglima tentara TUHAN." Mendengar itu Yosua segera sujud menyembah orang itu. Yosua berkata, "Saya ini hamba Tuan. Apa yang dapat saya lakukan untuk Tuan?"
And he said to him, "Truly I am the commander of the army of YHWH. Now I have come." And Joshua fell facedown to the ground and worshipped, and said to him, "What does my lord say to his servant?"
15 Panglima tentara TUHAN itu menjawab, "Buka sepatumu; tanah tempat kau berdiri itu adalah tanah suci." Maka Yosua membuka sepatunya.
The commander of the army of YHWH said to Joshua, "Take your shoes off of your feet; for the place on which you stand is holy." Joshua did so.
