¹And it came to pass 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 from before the children of Israel, until they had passed over, that their heart melted, and there was no spirit in them any more, because of the children of Israel.

¹Visi amoritų karaliai, kurie gyveno nuo Jordano į vakarus, ir visi kanaaniečių karaliai, kurie gyveno prie jūros, išgirdę, jog Viešpats išdžiovino Jordano vandenis prieš izraelitus, kad jie galėtų pereiti, nusiminė ir neteko drąsos.

²At that time Jehovah said to Joshua, Make thee stone-knives, and circumcise again the children of Israel the second time.

²Tuomet Viešpats tarė Jozuei: “Pasidaryk aštrių peilių ir apipjaustyk izraelitus”.

³And Joshua made him stone-knives, and circumcised the children of Israel at the hill of Araloth.

³Jozuė pasidarė aštrius peilius ir apipjaustė izraelitus ant Araloto kalvos.

⁴And this is the cause why Joshua circumcised [them]: all the people that had come out of Egypt, the males, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way, after they came out of Egypt.

⁴Štai priežastis, dėl kurios Jozuė atliko apipjaustymą: tautos vyrai, tinkantys karui, išėjus iš Egipto, išmirė pakeliui dykumoje.

⁵For all the people that came out were circumcised; but all the people that were born in the wilderness on the way, after they came out of Egypt, [them] had they not circumcised.

⁵Visi išėjusieji buvo apipjaustyti, tačiau vaikai, gimusieji dykumoje, buvo neapipjaustyti.

⁶For the children of Israel had walked forty years in the wilderness, till the whole nation of men of war had perished who had come out of Egypt, who had not hearkened to the voice of Jehovah; to whom Jehovah had sworn that he would not show them the land which Jehovah had sworn unto their fathers that he would give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

⁶Keturiasdešimt metų izraelitai klaidžiojo dykumoje, kol išmirė visi karui tinkami vyrai, kurie išėjo iš Egipto, kadangi jie neklausė Viešpaties. Viešpats prisiekė neleisiąs jiems pamatyti žemės, plūstančios pienu ir medumi, kurią pažadėjo jų tėvams.

⁷And their sons [whom] he raised up in their stead, them Joshua circumcised, for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them on the way.

⁷Jų vaikus, kurie užėmė jų vietą, apipjaustė Jozuė, nes jie nebuvo apipjaustyti kelionėje.

⁸And it came to pass when the whole nation had finished being circumcised, that they abode in their place in the camp, till they were whole.

⁸Po apipjaustymo jie pasiliko stovykloje, kol pagijo.

⁹And Jehovah said to Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from off you. And the name of the place was called Gilgal to this day.

⁹Ir Viešpats tarė Jozuei: “Šiandien Aš pašalinau nuo jūsų Egipto gėdą”. Todėl ta vieta iki šios dienos vadinama Gilgalu.

¹⁰And the children of Israel encamped in Gilgal, and held the passover on the fourteenth day of the month, at even, in the plains of Jericho.

¹⁰Izraelitai, stovyklaudami Gilgale, šventė Paschą to mėnesio keturioliktą dieną, vakare, Jericho lygumose.

¹¹And they ate of the old corn of the land on the morrow after the passover, unleavened loaves, and roasted [corn] on that same day.

¹¹Kitą dieną po Paschos jie valgė tos žemės derliaus neraugintą duoną ir paskrudintus grūdus.

¹²And the manna ceased on the morrow, when they had eaten of the old corn of the land; and there was no more manna for the children of Israel; and they ate of the produce of the land of Canaan that year.

¹²Jiems pradėjus valgyti tos žemės derlių, mana liovėsi kritusi. Izraelitai nebeturėjo manos, bet tais metais valgė Kanaano krašto vaisius.

¹³And it came to pass when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, there stood a man before him with his sword drawn in his hand. And Joshua went to him, and said to him: Art thou for us, or for our enemies?

¹³Jozuė, būdamas prie Jericho, pamatė prieš save stovintį vyrą, kuris rankoje laikė nuogą kardą. Jozuė priėjo ir jo paklausė: “Ar tu iš mūsų, ar iš mūsų priešų?”

¹⁴And he said, No; for [as] captain of the army of Jehovah am I now come. Then Joshua fell upon his face to the earth, and worshipped, and said to him, What saith my lord unto his servant?

¹⁴Jis atsakė: “Ne! Aš atėjau kaip Viešpaties pulkų vadas”. Jozuė puolė veidu ant žemės, jį pagarbino ir paklausė: “Ką mano viešpats turi pasakyti savo tarnui?”

¹⁵And the captain of Jehovah's army said to Joshua, Loose thy sandal from off thy foot: for the place whereon thou standest is holy. And Joshua did so.

¹⁵Viešpaties pulkų vadas tarė Jozuei: “Nusiauk kurpes, nes vieta, kurioje stovi, yra šventa”. Jozuė taip ir padarė.
