Joshua 5 — Scripture text (King James Version)
And it came to pass, when all the kings4428 of the 567, which were the side5676 of 3383 westward3220, and all the kings4428 of the 3669, which were by the sea3220, heard8085 that the LORD3068 had dried up3001 the waters4325 of 3383 from before6440 the children1121 of 3478, until we were passed over5674, that their heart3824 melted4549, neither was there spirit7307 in them any more, because6440 of the children1121 of 3478. At that time6256 the LORD3068 said559 unto 3091, Make6213 thee sharp6697 knives2719, and circumcise4135 again7725 the children1121 of 3478 the second time8145. sharp: or, knives of flints And 3091 made6213 him sharp6697 knives2719, and circumcised4135 the children1121 of 3478 at the hill1389 of the foreskins6190. sharp: or, knives of flints the hill: or, -haaraloth And this is the cause1697 why 3091 did circumcise4135: All the people5971 that came out3318 of 4714, that were males2145, even all the men582 of war4421, died4191 in the wilderness4057 by the way1870, after they came out3318 of 4714. Now3588 all the people5971 that came out3318 were circumcised4135: but all the people5971 that were born3209 in the wilderness4057 by the way1870 as they came forth3318 out of 4714, them they had not circumcised4135. For the children1121 of 3478 walked1980 forty705 years8141 in the wilderness4057, till all the people1471 that were men582 of war4421, which came out3318 of 4714, were consumed8552, because they obeyed8085 not the voice6963 of the LORD3068: unto whom the LORD3068 sware7650 that he would not shew7200 them the land776, which the LORD3068 sware7650 unto their fathers1 that he would give5414 us, a land776 that floweth2100 with milk2461 and honey1706. And their children1121, whom he raised up6965 in their stead, them 3091 circumcised4135: for they were uncircumcised6189, because they had not circumcised4135 them by the way1870. And it came to pass, when they had done8552 circumcising4135 all the people1471, that they abode3427 in their places in the camp4264, till they were whole2421. they had: Heb. the people had made an end to be circumcised And the LORD3068 said559 unto 3091, This day3117 have I rolled away1556 the reproach2781 of 4714 from off you. Wherefore the name8034 of the place4725 is called7121 1537 unto this day3117. : that is And the children1121 of 3478 encamped2583 in 1537, and kept6213 6453 the fourteenth702 6240 day3117 of the month2320 at even6153 in the plains6160 of 3405. And they did eat398 of the old corn5669 of the land776 the morrow4283 after 6453, unleavened cakes4682, and parched7033 corn in the selfsame6106 day3117. And the 4478 ceased7673 the morrow4283 after they had eaten398 of the old corn5669 of the land776; neither had the children1121 of 3478 4478 any more; but they did eat398 of the fruit8393 of the land776 of 3667 that year8141. And it came to pass, when 3091 was by 3405, that he lifted up5375 his eyes5869 and looked7200, and, behold, there stood5975 a man376 over against him with his 2719 drawn8025 in his hand3027: and 3091 went3212 unto him, and said559 unto him, Art thou for us, or for our adversaries6862? And he said559, Nay; but as captain8269 of the host6635 of the LORD3068 am I now come935. And 3091 fell5307 his face6440 to the earth776, and did worship7812, and said559 unto him, What saith1696 my lord113 unto his servant5650? captain: or, prince And the captain8269 of the LORD'S3068 host6635 said559 unto 3091, Loose5394 thy shoe5275 from off thy foot7272; for the place4725 whereon thou standest5975 is holy6944. And 3091 did6213 so.
