Joshua 5
1 All the kings of the people-groups to the west of the Jordan River and all the kings of the groups who were descendants of Canaan and who lived close to the [Mediterranean] Sea heard about how Yahweh had dried up the water of the Jordan [River] until all we Israeli people had crossed over. So they became very dismayed. They no longer were courageous enough to fight us.
A kad èuše svi carevi Amorejski, koji bijahu s ovu stranu Jordana k zapadu, i svi carevi Hananski, koji bijahu pokraj mora, da je Gospod osušio Jordan pred sinovima Izrailjevijem dokle prijeðoše, rastopi se srce u njima i nesta u njima junaštva od straha sinova Izrailjevijeh.
2 While [they were camped at Gilgal], Yahweh said to Joshua, “[The Israeli males who lived in Egypt were circumcised before they left there. Now] make knives from flint stones and circumcise all the Israeli males [who have been born since then].”
U to vrijeme reèe Gospod Isusu: naèini oštre nože, i obreži opet sinove Izrailjeve.
3 So Joshua [made knives and] circumcised the Israeli males at a place that is now called ‘Circumcision Hill’.
I naèini Isus oštre nože, i obreza sinove Izrailjeve na brdašcu Aralotu.
4 [The reason they did that is that all the men who left Egypt], those who were old enough to be soldiers, died in the desert after they left Egypt.
A ovo je uzrok zašto ih Isus obreza: sav narod što izide iz Misira, sve muškinje, svi ljudi vojnici pomriješe u pustinji na putu, pošto izidoše iz Misira;
5 They had been circumcised in Egypt, but the baby boys who had been born while their parents were camping in the desert after they left Egypt had not been circumcised.
Jer bješe obrezan sav narod koji izide, ali ne obrezaše nikoga u narodu koji se rodi u pustinji na putu, pošto izidoše iz Misira.
6 Our Israeli ancestors traveled around in the desert for 40 years, and all the men who were old enough to be soldiers had died. [The women had also died]. They had not obeyed Yahweh, so Yahweh said that they would not arrive at the land that he had promised to our ancestors that he would give to us, a land that was very fertile [MTY].
Jer èetrdeset godina iðahu sinovi Izrailjevi po pustinji dokle ne pomrije sav narod, ljudi vojnici, što izidoše iz Misira, jer ne slušaše glasa Gospodnjega, te im se zakle Gospod da im neæe dati da vide zemlju, za koju se zakleo Gospod ocima njihovijem da æe nam je dati, zemlju, gdje teèe mlijeko i med;
7 The sons of those who had disobeyed Yahweh were the ones whom Joshua circumcised at Gilgal. They were circumcised because they had not been circumcised [while they were traveling in the desert].
I na mjesto njihovo podiže sinove njihove; njih obreza Isus, jer bijahu neobrezani, jer ih ne obrezaše na putu.
8 After all the Israeli males had been circumcised, they remained in the camp and rested until their wounds were healed.
A kad se sav narod obreza, ostaše na svojem mjestu u okolu dokle ne ozdraviše.
9 Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “[Because your forefathers were slaves in Egypt], the Egyptians felt a revulsion toward you. But today I have removed the revulsion the Egyptians have had toward you.” Because of that, the people called the place ‘Gilgal’, [which sounds like the Hebrew word ‘removed’, ] and it still has that name.
Tada reèe Gospod Isusu: danas skidoh s vas sramotu Misirsku. I prozva se ono mjesto Galgal do današnjega dana.
10 In the evening of the fourteenth day of that month, while the Israeli people were camped at Gilgal, on the plain near Jericho [city], they celebrated the Passover [Festival].
I sinovi Izrailjevi stojeæi u okolu u Galgalu, slaviše pashu èetrnaestog dana onoga mjeseca uveèe u polju Jerihonskom.
11 The next day, they found some barley grain in the fields in that area. So they took that and roasted it and ate it with bread that was made without yeast.
I sjutradan poslije pashe jedoše od žita one zemlje hljebove prijesne i zrna pržena, isti dan.
12 The next day, [God] stopped [sending] manna for the Israeli people to eat. After that, they ate food that was grown in Canaan.
I presta mana sjutradan pošto jedoše žita one zemlje, i veæ više ne imaše mane sinovi Izrailjevi, nego jedoše od roda zemlje Hananske one godine.
13 One day when Joshua came near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him. The man was holding a sword in his hand. Joshua approached him and asked him, “Are you [going to fight] for us or against us?”
I kad Isus bijaše kod Jerihona, podiže oèi svoje i pogleda, a to èovjek stoji prema njemu s golijem maèem u ruci. I pristupi k njemu Isus i reèe mu: jesi li naš ili naših neprijatelja?
14 The man replied, “I am not [planning to fight with you] or [against you]. Instead, I am the commander of Yahweh’s army [in heaven], and I have come [down from there to assure you that Yahweh will help you].” Then Joshua bowed down with his face on the ground (to show his respect for/to worship) the man, and said to him, “Tell me what [you want me to do].”
A on reèe: nijesam; nego sam vojvoda vojske Gospodnje, sada doðoh. I Isus pade nièice na zemlju, i pokloni se, i reèe mu: šta zapovijeda gospodar moj sluzi svojemu?
15 The commander of Yahweh’s army replied, “Take off your sandals! [I am Yahweh, and] the ground on which you are standing is holy because I am here.” So Joshua took off his sandals.
A vojvoda vojske Gospodnje reèe Isusu: izuj obuæu s nogu svojih, jer je mjesto gdje stojiš sveto. I uèini Isus tako.
