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.

¹Ary ny mpanjaka rehetra amin'ny Amorita any an-dafy andrefan'i Jordana sy ny mpanjaka rehetra tamin'ny Kananita any amoron'ny ranomasina, rehefa nandre ny nanamainan'i Jehovah ny rano Jordana teo anoloan'ny Zanak'Isiraely mandra-pitany, dia ketraka ny fony ka very hevitra izy noho ny tahony ny Zanak'Isiraely. [Na: (mandra-pitantsika)]

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

²[Ny namorana ny olona izay nateraka tany an-efitra, sy ny nitandremany ny Paska, ary ny nitsaharan'ny mana] Tamin'izany andro izany no nilazan'i Jehovah tamin'i Josoa hoe: Manaova fiharatra vato ho anao, ka atombohy indray ny famorana ny Zanak'Isiraely.

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

³Dia nanao fiharatra vato ho azy Josoa ka namora ny Zanak'Isiraely teo an-kavoana Haralota.

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.

⁴Ary izao no anton'ny namoran'i Josoa azy: Ny lehilahy rehetra izay nivoaka avy tany Egypta, dia ny mpanafika rehetra, samy maty tany an-fitra teny an-dalana, tamin'izy efa nivoaka avy tany Egypta.

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.

⁵Ary voafora ny lehilahy rehetra izay nivoaka; fa ny lehilahy rehetra nateraka teny an-dalana tany an-efitra, tamin'izy efa nivoaka avy tany Egypta, dia tsy mbola voafora kosa.

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.

⁶Fa efa-polo taona no nandehanan'ny Zanak'Isiraely tany an-efitra, mandra-pahalany ritran'ny olona rehetra, dia ny mpanafika izay nivoaka avy tany Egypta, satria tsy nihaino ny feon'i Jehovah izy; dia ireo no nianianan'i Jehovah fa tsy havelany hahita ny tany izay nianianan'i Jehovah tamin'ny razana homeny antsika, dia tany tondra-dronono sy tantely.

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.

⁷Ary ny zanany no natsangany handimby azy, ka ireo no noforan'i Josoa; fa tsy mbola voafora ireo, satria tsy noforana teny an-dalana.

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.

⁸Ary rehefa noforana ny lehilahy rehetra, dia nitoetra tao amin'ny fitoerany tany an-toby izy mandra-pahasitrany.

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.

⁹Dia hoy Jehovah tamin'i Josoa: Androany no nanakodiavako ny fandatsan'i Egypta ho afaka aminareo. Ary ny anaran'izany tany izany dia nataony hoe Gilgala mandraka androany. [Gilgala = Fanakodiavana]

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.

¹⁰Ary ny Zanak'Isiraely nitoby tany Gilgala ka nitandrina ny Paska tamin'ny harivan'ny andro fahefatra ambin'ny folo tamin'ny volana, teo amin'ny tani-hay any Jeriko.[Heb. Arabà]

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.

¹¹Ary nony ampitson'ny Paska, dia nihinana ny vokatry ny tany izy tamin'izany andro izany indrindra, dia mofo tsy misy masirasira sy lango.

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.

¹²Ary nitsahatra ny mana tamin'iny andro ampitso iny, dia tamin'ny nihinanany ny vokatry ny tany, ka tsy nisy mana ho an'ny Zanak'Isiraely intsony; fa nihinana ny vokatry ny tany Kanana izy tamin'izany taona izany.

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?

¹³[Ny nisehoan'ny Komandin'ny miaramilan'i Jehovah tamin'i Josoa, sy ny nahafahan'ny Isiraely an'i Jeriko] Ary nony teo akaikin'i Jeriko Josoa, dia nanopy ny masony izy ka nijery, ary, indro, nisy lehilahy nitsangana tandrifiny, ka ny sabany voatsoaka dia teny an-tànany; ary nanatona Azy Josoa ka nanao taminy hoe: Namanay va Hianao, sa naman'ny fahavalonay?

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?

¹⁴Dia hoy Izy: Tsia; fa Izaho dia Komandin'ny miaramilan'i Jehovah ka tonga atỳ ankehitriny. Dia niankohoka tamin'ny tany Josoa ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona no holazainao amin'ny mpanomponao, Tompokolahy ?Dia hoy Ilay Komandin'ny miaramilan'i Jehovah tamin'i Josoa: Esory amin'ny tongotrao ny kapanao; fa masina io tany ijanonanao io. Dia nataon'i Josoa izany.

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.

¹⁵Dia hoy Ilay Komandin'ny miaramilan'i Jehovah tamin'i Josoa: Esory amin'ny tongotrao ny kapanao; fa masina io tany ijanonanao io. Dia nataon'i Josoa izany.
