Joshua 5

1 Now when all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwelt beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of Chanaan, who possessed the places near the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the children of Israel, till they passed over, their heart failed them, and there remained no spirit in them, fearing the coming in of the children of Israel.

Alò, li te vin rive ke lè tout wa Amoreyen ki te lòtbò Jourdain yo vè lwès ak tout wa Canaran akote lanmè yo, te tande jan SENYÈ a te seche dlo Jourdain an devan fis Israël yo jiskaske yo te travèse, ke kè yo te fonn, e yo pa t gen kouraj nan yo ankò akoz fis Israël yo.

2 At that time the Lord said to Josue: Make thee knives of stone, and circumcise the second time the children of Israel.

Nan tan sa a, SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Fè pou ou menm kouto avèk silèks e sikonsi ankò fis Israël yo pou dezyèm fwa a.”

3 He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the children of Israel in the hill of the foreskins.

Konsa, Josué te fè pou kont li kouto avèk silèks e te sikonsi fis Israël yo nan Gilbreath-Araloth.

4 Now this is the cause of the second circumcision: All the people that came out of Egypt that were males, all the men fit for war, died in the desert, during the time of the long going about in the way.

Men rezon pou sila Josué te sikonsi yo a: tout pèp la ki te sòti an Égypte nan gason yo, tout mesye lagè yo, te mouri nan dezè a nan wout lè yo fin kite Égypte.

5 Now these were all circumcised. But the people that were born in the desert,

Paske tout mesye ki te sòti yo te sikonsi, men tout mesye ki te fèt nan dezè a nan wout la pandan yo sòti an Égypte la pa t ankò sikonsi.

6 Luring the forty years of the journey in the wide wilderness, were uncircumcised: till all they were consumed that had not heard the voice of the Lord, and to whom he had sworn before, that he would not shew them the land flowing with milk and honey.

Paske fis Israël yo te mache karantan nan dezè a, jis tout nasyon an, mesye lagè ki te sòti an Égypte yo, te peri akoz yo pa t koute vwa SENYÈ a, a sila SENYÈ a te sèmante ke Li pa t ap kite yo wè peyi ke SENYÈ a te sèmante bay zansèt pa yo pou bannou an, yon peyi ki koule avèk lèt ak siwo myèl.

7 The children of these succeeded in the place of their fathers, and were circumcised by Josue: for they were uncircumcised even as they were born, and no one had circumcised them in the way.

Timoun ke Li te vin leve pou ranplase yo, Josué te sikonsi yo. Paske yo pa t sikonsi akoz ke yo pa t sikonsi yo nan wout la.

8 Now after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp, until they were healed.

Alò, lè yo te fin sikonsi tout nasyon an, yo te rete nan plas yo nan kan an jiskaske yo te fin geri.

9 And the Lord said to Josue: This day have I taken away from you the reproach of Egypt. And the name of that place was called Galgal, until this present day.

Epi SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Jodi a, Mwen te woule fè sòti wont a Égypte la sou nou menm.” Konsa, jis jodi a, yo rele plas sa a Guilgal.

10 And the children of Israel abode in Galgal, and they kept the phase on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho:

Pandan fis Israël yo te rete Guilgal, yo te obsève Pak la nan lannwit katòzyèm jou nan mwa a nan plèn dezè a Jéricho a.

11 And they ate on the next day unleavened bread of the corn of the land, and frumenty of the same year.

Nan jou apre Pak la, nan menm jou sa a, yo te manje kèk nan pwodwi tè yo, gato san ledven ak sereyal griye.

12 And the manna ceased after they ate of the corn of the land, neither did the children of Israel use that food any more, but they ate of the corn of the present year of the land of Chanaan.

Lamàn te sispann nan jou apre yo te manje kèk nan pwodwi tè yo. Konsa, fis Israël yo pa t gen lamàn ankò, men yo te manje nan donn tè Canaran an pandan ane sa a.

13 And when Josue was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and saw a man standing over against him: holding a drawn sword, and he went to him, and said: Art thou one of ours, or of our adversaries?

Alò, li te rive ke lè Josué te toupre Jéricho, li te leve zye li anwo e te gade, vwala, yon nonm te kanpe anfas li avèk nepe li rale nan men l. Josué te pwoche l, e li te di li: “Èske ou pou nou oswa kont nou?”

14 And he answered: No: but I am prince of the host of the Lord, and now I am come. Josue fell on his face to the ground. And worshipping, add: What saith my lord to his servant?

Li te reponn: “Non; olye de sa, anverite mwen vini koulye a kòm kapitèn a lame SENYÈ a.” Konsa, Josué te tonbe atè sou figi li. Li te adore l e te di li: “Kisa mèt mwen an gen pou di a sèvitè li?”

15 Loose, saith he, thy shoes from off thy feet: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Josue did as was commanded him.

Kapitèn a lame SENYÈ a te di a Josué: “Retire sapat ou nan pye ou, paske plas kote ou kanpe a sen.” Epi Josué te fè l.
