约书亚记-Joshua 第 5 章

5:1约但河西亚摩利人的诸王和靠海迦南人的诸王,听见耶和华在以色列人面前使约但河的水干了,直到他们过去,诸王的心因以色列人的缘故就融化了,不再有胆气。
Now 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 before the children of Israel until they crossed over, their hearts melted, and there was no longer any spirit in them because of the children of Israel.
5:2那时,耶和华对约书亚说,你要制造火石刀,第二次给以色列人行割礼。
At that time Jehovah said to Joshua, Make knives of flint, and circumcise again the children of Israel a second time.
5:3约书亚就制造了火石刀,在阿拉洛山那里给以色列人行割礼。
And Joshua made knives of flint and circumcised the children of Israel at Gibeath-haaraloth.
5:4约书亚给他们行割礼的缘故,是因为从埃及出来的众民,就是一切能打仗的男丁,出了埃及以后,都死在旷野的路上。
And this is the reason Joshua circumcised them: All the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness on the way, after they had come out of Egypt.
5:5虽然出来的众民都受过割礼,但他们出埃及以后,在旷野的路上所生的众民,都没有受过割礼。
Although all the people who came out were circumcised, all the people who were born in the wilderness on the way, after the others had come out of Egypt, had not been circumcised.
5:6以色列人在旷野走了四十年,直到国民,就是出埃及的兵丁,尽都消灭了,因为他们没有听从耶和华的话;耶和华曾向他们起誓,必不容他们看见耶和华向他们列祖起誓要赐给我们的地,就是流奶与蜜之地。
For the children of Israel went for forty years through the wilderness until all the nation, the men of war who had come out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not listen to the voice of Jehovah, they to whom Jehovah swore that they would not see the land that Jehovah had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
5:7他们的子孙,就是耶和华所兴起来接替他们的,约书亚给他们行了割礼;他们本没有受过割礼,因为在路上没有给他们行割礼。
And their children, whom He had raised up in place of them, these Joshua circumcised; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.
5:8国民都受完了割礼,就住在营中自己的地方,等到痊愈了。
And when they had finished circumcising the whole nation, they remained in their place at the camp until they recovered.
5:9耶和华对约书亚说,我今日将埃及的羞辱从你们身上辊去了。因此,那地方名叫吉甲,直到今日。
Then Jehovah said to Joshua, Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. So the name of that place has been called Gilgal to this day.
5:10以色列人在吉甲安营;正月十四日晚上,他们在耶利哥的平原守逾越节。
And the children of Israel camped in Gilgal; and they held the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month in the evening on the plains of Jericho.
5:11逾越节的次日,他们就吃了那地的出产;正当那日,他们吃了无酵饼和烘的谷
And on the day after the Passover, on that very day, they ate of the produce of the land, unleavened cakes and parched grain.
5:12他们吃了那地的出产,当日吗哪就止住了,以色列人也不再有吗哪了;那一年,他们却吃迦南地的出产。
And the manna ceased on that day, when they ate of the produce of the land; and there was no longer manna for the children of Israel, but they ate of the yield of the land of Canaan that year.
5:13约书亚靠近耶利哥的时候,举目观看;看哪,有一个人手里有拔出来的刀,对面站立。约书亚到他那里,对他说,你是帮助我们呢,还是帮助我们的敌人?
Now once, when Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked; and behold, there was a man standing opposite him, and His sword was drawn in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, Are You for us or for our adversaries?
5:14祂说,都不是,我现在来,是作耶和华军队的元帅。约书亚就面伏于地下拜,说,我主有什么话告诉仆人?
And He said, Neither, but as the Captain of Jehovah's army have I now come. Then Joshua fell to the ground upon his face and worshipped. And he said to Him, What does my Lord speak to His servant?
5:15耶和华军队的元帅对约书亚说,把你脚上的鞋脱下来,因为你所站的地方是圣的。约书亚就照着行了。
And the Captain of Jehovah's army said to Joshua, Remove your sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy. And Joshua did so.
