[1]And whe al the kinges of ye Amorites which are beyonde Iordane westwarde, and al the kynges of the Chanaanites which were by the sea, heard howe ye Lorde had dried vp the waters of Iordane before the chyldren of Israel vntill they were gone ouer, their heartes faynted for feare, and there was no spirite in them any more for the presence of the children of Israel [1]Now when all the Kings of the Amorites, which were beyond Jordan westward, and all the kings of the Canaanites which were by the sea, heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of Jordan before the children of Israel until they were gone over, their heart fainted: and there was no courage in them anymore because of the children of Israel.
[2]That same time the Lorde saide vnto Iosuah: Make thee sharp kniues, and go to agayne and circumcise the children of Israel the seconde time [2]That same time the Lord said unto Joshua, Make thee sharp knives, and return, and circumcise the sons of Israel the second time.
[3]And Iosuah made him sharpe kniues, and circumcised the children of Israel in the hill of the foreskinnes [3]Then Joshua made him sharp knives and circumcised the sons of Israel in the hill of the foreskins.
[4]And this is the cause why Iosuah circumcised all the people, euen the males that came out of Egypt: because that al the men of warre died in the wildernes by ye way, after they came out of Egypt [4]And this is the cause why Joshua circumcised all the people, even the males that came out of Egypt, because all the men of war were dead in the wilderness by the way after they came out of Egypt.
[5]For all the people that came out, were circumcised: but al the people that were borne in the wildernes by the way after they came out of Egypt were not circumcised [5]For all the people that came out were circumcised: but all the people that were born in the wilderness by the way after they came out of Egypt, were not circumcised.
[6]For the chyldren of Israel walked fourtie yeres in the wildernesse, till al ye people of ye men of warre that came out of Egypt were consumed, because they hearkened not vnto the voyce of the Lorde: Unto whom the Lorde sware, that he woulde not shewe them ye lande which the Lorde sware vnto their fathers that he woulde geue vs, euen a lande that floweth with mylke & hony [6]For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people of the men of war that came out of Egypt were consumed, because they obeyed not the voice of the Lord: unto whom the Lord swear, that he would not show them the land, which the Lord had sworn unto their fathers, that he would give us, even a land that floweth with milk and honey.
[7]And their children whom he set vp in their steede, them Iosuah circumcised, for they were vncircumcised: because they circumcised them not by the way [7]So their sons whom he raised up in their stead, Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised, because they circumcised them not by the way.
[8]And when they had circumcised al the people, they abode in their places in the campe tyll they were whole [8]And when they had made an end of circumcising all the people, they abode in the places in the camp till they were whole.
[9]And the Lorde sayde vnto Iosuah: This day haue I taken away the shame of Egypt from you: wherefore the name of the same place is called Gilgal, vnto this day [9]After, the Lord said unto Joshua, This day I have taken away the shame of Egypt from you: wherefore he called the name of that place Gilgal, unto this day.
[10]And the children of Israel abode in Gilgal, and helde the feast of Passouer the fourteenth day of the moneth at euen, in the playne of Iericho [10]So the children of Israel abode in Gilgal, and kept the feast of the Passover the fourteenth day of the month at even in the plain of Jericho.
[11]And they did eate of the corne of the lande on the morowe after the Passouer sweete cakes and parched corne, in the selfe same day [11]And they did eat of the corn of the land, on the morrow after the Passover, unleavened bread, and parched corn in the same day.
[12]For the Manna ceassed on the morowe after they had begun to eate of the corne of the lande, neither had the chyldren of Israel Manna any more, but did eate of the fruite of the lande of Chanaan that yere [12]And the manna ceased on the morrow after they had eaten of the corn of the land, neither had the children of Israel manna anymore, but did eat of the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.
[13]And when Iosuah was nye to Iericho, he lift vp his eyes and loked: and behold, there stoode a man against him, hauing a sworde drawen in his hande: And Iosuah went vnto him, and sayde vnto him, Art thou on our syde, or on our aduersaries [13]And when Joshua was by Jericho, he lift up his eyes and looked: and behold, there stood a man against him, having a sword drawn in his hand: and Joshua went unto him, and said unto him, Art thou on our side, or on our adversaries?
[14]And he sayde, Naie: but as a captaine of the hoast of the Lord am I nowe come. And Iosuah fell on his face to ye earth, and did worship, and sayde vnto him: What saith my Lord vnto his seruaunt [14]And he said, Nay, but as a captain of the host of the Lord am I now come: then Joshua fell on his face to the earth, and did worship, and said unto him, What saith my Lord unto his servant?
[15]And the captaine of the Lordes hoast sayde vnto Iosuah: Do thy shoe of thy foote, for the place wheron thou standest, is holy. And Iosuah did so [15]And the captain of the Lord's host said unto Joshua, Loose thy shoe off thy foot: for the place whereon thou standest, is holy: and Joshua did so.
