[1] 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 how Yahweh 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] At that time, Yahweh said to Joshua, “Make flint knives, and circumcise again the sons of Israel the second time.” [3] Joshua made himself flint knives, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins. [4] This 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] For 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] For 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 Yahweh’s voice. Yahweh swore to them that he wouldn’t let them see the land which Yahweh swore to their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey. [7] Their 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] When they were done circumcising the whole nation, they stayed in their places in the camp until they were healed. [9] Yahweh 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] The 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] They ate unleavened cakes and parched grain of the produce of the land on the next day after the Passover, in the same day. [12] The 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] When 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] He said, “No; but I have come now as commander of Yahweh’s army.”Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and worshiped, and asked him, “What does my lord say to his servant?” [15] The prince of Yahweh’s army said to Joshua, “Take off your sandals, for the place on which you stand is holy.” Joshua did so.

King James Version
[1] And it came to pass, H1961 when all H3605 the kings H4428 of the Amorites, H567 which H834 were on the side H5676 of Jordan H3383 westward, H3220 and all H3605 the kings H4428 of the Canaanites, H3669 which H834 were by H5921 the sea, H3220 heard H8085 H853 that H834 the Lord H3068 had dried up H3001 H853 the waters H4325 of Jordan H3383 from before H6440 the children H1121 of Israel, H3478 until H5704 we were passed over, H5674 that their heart H3824 melted, H4549 neither H3808 was there H1961 spirit H7307 in them any more, H5750 because H6440 of the children H1121 of Israel. H3478 [2] At that H1931 time H6256 the Lord H3068 said H559 unto H413 Joshua, H3091 Make H6213 thee sharp H6697 knives, H2719§ and circumcise H4135 again H7725 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 the second time. H8145 [3] And Joshua H3091 made H6213 him sharp H6697 knives, H2719 and circumcised H4135 H853 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 at H413 the hill H1389 of the foreskins. H6190§ [4] And this H2088 is the cause H1697 why H834 Joshua H3091 did circumcise: H4135 All H3605 the people H5971 that came out H3318 of Egypt, H4714 that were males, H2145 even all H3605 the men H582 of war, H4421 died H4191 in the wilderness H4057 by the way, H1870 after they came out H3318 of Egypt. H4714 [5] Now H3588 all H3605 the people H5971 that came out H3318 were H1961 circumcised: H4135 but all H3605 the people H5971 that were born H3209 in the wilderness H4057 by the way H1870 as they came forth H3318 out of Egypt, H4714 them they had H4135 not H3808 circumcised. H4135 [6] For H3588 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 walked H1980 forty H705 years H8141 in the wilderness, H4057 till H5704 all H3605 the people H1471 that were men H582 of war, H4421 which came out H3318 of Egypt, H4714 were consumed, H8552 because H834 they obeyed H8085 not H3808 the voice H6963 of the Lord: H3068 unto whom H834 the Lord H3068 sware H7650 that he would H7200 not H1115 shew them H7200 H853 the land, H776 which H834 the Lord H3068 sware H7650 unto their fathers H1 that he would give H5414 us, a land H776 that floweth H2100 with milk H2461 and honey. H1706 [7] And H853 their children, H1121 whom he raised up H6965 in their stead, H8478 them H853 Joshua H3091 circumcised: H4135 for H3588 they were H1961 uncircumcised, H6189 because H3588 they had H4135 not H3808 circumcised H4135 them H853 by the way. H1870 [8] And it came to pass, H1961 when H834 they had done H8552 circumcising H4135 all H3605 the people, H1471§ that they abode H3427 in their places H8478 in the camp, H4264 till H5704 they were whole. H2421 [9] And the Lord H3068 said H559 unto H413 Joshua, H3091 This day H3117 have I rolled away H1556 H853 the reproach H2781 of Egypt H4714 from off you. H5921 Wherefore the name H8034 of the place H4725 H1931 is called H7121 Gilgal H1537ⓘ unto H5704 this H2088 day. H3117 [10] And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 encamped H2583 in Gilgal, H1537 and kept H6213 H853 the passover H6453 on the fourteenth H702 H6240 day H3117 of the month H2320 at even H6153 in the plains H6160 of Jericho. H3405 [11] And they did eat H398 of the old corn H5669 of the land H776 on the morrow after H4283 the passover, H6453 unleavened cakes, H4682 and parched H7033 corn in the selfsame H6106 day. H3117 H2088 [12] And the manna H4478 ceased H7673 on the morrow H4283 after they had eaten H398 of the old corn H5669 of the land; H776 neither H3808 had H1961 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 manna H4478 any more; H5750 but they did eat H398 of the fruit H8393 of the land H776 of Canaan H3667 that H1931 year.

Fall of Jericho

[13] And it came to pass, H1961 when Joshua H3091 was H1961 by Jericho, H3405 that he lifted up H5375 his eyes H5869 and looked, H7200 and, behold, H2009 there stood H5975 a man H376 over against him H5048 with his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand: H3027 and Joshua H3091 went H3212 unto him, H413 and said H559 unto him, Art thou H859 for us, or H518 for our adversaries? H6862 [14] And he said, H559 Nay; H3808 but H3588 as captain H8269§ of the host H6635 of the Lord H3068 am H935 I H589 now H6258 come. H935 And Joshua H3091 fell H5307 on H413 his face H6440 to the earth, H776 and did worship, H7812 and said H559 unto him, What H4100 saith H1696 my lord H113 unto H413 his servant? H5650 [15] And the captain H8269 of the Lord’s H3068 host H6635 said H559 unto H413 Joshua, H3091 Loose H5394 thy shoe H5275 from off H5921 thy foot; H7272 for H3588 the place H4725 whereon H834 H5921 thou H859 standest H5975 is holy. H6944 H1931 And Joshua H3091 did H6213 so. H3651
