约书亚记 5
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
World English Bible
1约旦河 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 人前面使 约旦河 的水干了，等到我们过去，他们的心因 以色列 人的缘故就消化了，不再有胆气。
1When 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 the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, their heart melted, and there was no more spirit in them, because of the children of Israel.
2那时，耶和华吩咐 约书亚 说：「你制造火石刀，第二次给 以色列 人行割礼。」
2At that time, the LORD said to Joshua, “Make flint knives, and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.”
3约书亚 就制造了火石刀，在「除皮山」那里给 以色列 人行割礼。
3Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
4约书亚 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。
4This is the reason Joshua circumcised them: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way, after they came out of Egypt.
5因为出来的众民都受过割礼；惟独出 埃及 以后、在旷野的路上所生的众民都没有受过割礼。
5For all the people who came out were circumcised; but all the people who were born in the wilderness along the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.
6以色列 人在旷野走了四十年，等到国民，就是出 埃及 的兵丁，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、应许赐给我们的地，就是流奶与蜜之地。
6For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness until all the nation, even the men of war who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they didn’t listen to the LORD’s voice. The LORD swore to them that he wouldn’t let them see the land which the LORD swore to their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
7他们的子孙，就是耶和华所兴起来接续他们的，都没有受过割礼；因为在路上没有给他们行割礼， 约书亚 这才给他们行了。
7Their 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国民都受完了割礼，就住在营中自己的地方，等到痊愈了。
8When they were done circumcising the whole nation, they stayed in their places in the camp until they were healed.
9耶和华对 约书亚 说：「我今日将 埃及 的羞辱从你们身上滚去了。」因此，那地方名叫 吉甲 ，直到今日。
9The LORD said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” Therefore the name of that place was called Gilgal to this day.
10以色列 人在 吉甲 安营。正月十四日晚上，在 耶利哥 的平原守逾越节。
10The children of Israel encamped in Gilgal. They kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.
11逾越节的次日，他们就吃了那地的出产；正当那日吃无酵饼和烘的谷。
11They ate unleavened cakes and parched grain of the produce of the land on the next day after the Passover, in the same day.
12他们吃了那地的出产，第二日吗哪就止住了， 以色列 人也不再有吗哪了。那一年，他们却吃 迦南 地的出产。
12The manna ceased on the next day, after they had eaten of the produce of the land. The children of Israel didn’t have manna any more, but they ate of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
13约书亚 靠近 耶利哥 的时候，举目观看，不料，有一个人手里有拔出来的刀，对面站立。 约书亚 到他那里，问他说：「你是帮助我们呢，是帮助我们敌人呢？」
13When Joshua was by Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, 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 enemies?”
14他回答说：「不是的，我来是要作耶和华军队的元帅。」 约书亚 就俯伏在地下拜，说：「我主有什么话吩咐仆人。」
14He said, “No; but I have come now as commander of the LORD’s army.” Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and asked him, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
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。
15The prince of the LORD’s army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals, for the place on which you stand is holy.” Joshua did so.
