Joshua 5 And it comes to pass when all the kings of the Amorite which are beyond the Jordan, towards the sea, and all the kings of the Canaanite which are by the sea, hear how that Yahweh has dried up the waters of the Jordan at the presence of the sons of Israel till their passing over, that their heart is melted, and there has not been in them any more spirit because of the presence of the sons of Israel.

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And it comes to pass when all the kings of the Amorite which [are] beyond the Jordan, towards the sea, and all the kings of the Canaanite which [are] by the sea, hear how that Yahweh has dried up the waters of the Jordan at the presence of the sons of Israel till their passing over, that their heart is melted, and there has not been in them any more spirit because of the presence of the sons of Israel. ² At that time said Yahweh unto Joshua, `Make for you knives of flint, and turn back, circumcise the sons of Israel a second time;. ³ and Joshua makes for him knives of flint, and circumcises the sons of Israel at the height of the foreskins. ⁴ And this [is] the thing [for] which Joshua circumcises [them]:all the people who are coming out of Egypt, who are males, all the men of war have died in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out of Egypt, ⁵ for all the people who are coming out were circumcised, and all the people who [are] born in the wilderness, in the way, in their coming out from Egypt, they have not circumcised;" ⁶ for forty years have the sons of Israel gone in the wilderness, till all the nation of the men of war who are coming out of Egypt, who hearkened not to the voice of Yahweh, to whom Yahweh has sworn not to show them the land which Yahweh sware to their fathers to give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey, are consumed;" ⁷ and their sons He raised up in their stead, them has Joshua circumcised, for they have been uncircumcised, for they have not circumcised them in the way. ⁸ And it comes to pass when all the nation have completed to be circumcised, that they abide in their places in the camp till their recovering;" ⁹ and Yahweh said unto Joshua, `To-day I have rolled the reproach of Egypt from off you;' and [one] calls the name of that place Gilgal unto this day. ¹⁰ And the sons of Israel encamp in Gilgal, and make the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho;" ¹¹ and they eat of the old corn of the land on the morrow of the passover, unleavened things and roasted [corn], in this self-same day;" ¹² and the manna does cease on the morrow in their eating of the old corn of the land, and there has been no more manna to the sons of Israel, and they eat of the increase of the land of Canaan in that year. ¹³ And it comes to pass in Joshua's being by Jericho, that he lifts up his eyes, and looks, and lo, one standing over-against him, and his drawn sword in his hand, and Joshua goes unto him, and said to him, `Are you for us or for our adversaries?. ¹⁴ And He said, `No, for I [am] Prince of Yahweh's host; now I have come;' and Joshua falls on his face to the earth, and does obeisance, and said to Him, `What is my Lord speaking unto His servant?. ¹⁵ And the Prince of Yahweh's host said unto Joshua, `Cast off your shoe from off your foot, for the place on which you are standing is holy;' and Joshua does so;"
