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.

¹A stalo sa, keď počuli všetci amorejskí kráľovia, ktorí boli za Jordánom, k moru, i všetci kananejskí kráľovia, ktorí boli pri mori, že Hospodin vysušil vody Jordána pred synmi Izraelovými, dokiaľ ho neprešli, ich srdce sa rozlialo jako voda, a nebolo v nich viacej ducha odvahy pred synmi Izraelovými.

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

²V tom čase povedal Hospodin Jozuovi: Narob si ostrých nožov a obrež zase synov Izraelových po druhé.

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

³A Jozua si narobil ostrých nožov a obrezal synov Izraelových pri Gibeat-haarálot.

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.

⁴A toto bola príčina, pre ktorú ich obrezal Jozua. Všetok ľud, ktorý vyšiel z Egypta, ktorí boli mužského pohlavia, všetci mužovia, súci do boja, pomreli na púšti, na ceste, keď vyšli z 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.

⁵Lebo obrezaní boli všetci, všetok ľud, ktorí vyšli, ale nikoho zo všetkého ľudu, z tých, ktorí sa narodili na púšti, na ceste, keď už boli vyšli z Egypta, neboli obrezali.

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.

⁶Lebo štyridsať rokov chodili synovia Izraelovi po púšti, dokiaľ nevyhynul všetok ten národ, mužovia, súci do boja, ktorí boli vyšli z Egypta, ktorí nepočúvali na hlas Hospodina, ktorým potom prisahal Hospodin, že im neukáže zeme, o ktorej prisahal Hospodin ich otcom, že nám ju dá, zem to, ktorá tečie mliekom a medom.

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.

⁷Ale ich synov postavil namiesto nich. Tých obrezal Jozua, pretože boli neobrezaní, lebo ich neboli obrezali na ceste.

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.

⁸A stalo sa, keď už bol obrezaný celý národ, všetci, že zostali každý na svojom mieste v tábore, dokiaľ sa nevyhojili.

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.

⁹A Hospodin riekol Jozuovi: Dneska som s vás odvalil pohanu Egypta. A nazval meno toho miesta Gilgal, a tak sa volá až do tohoto dňa.

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.

¹⁰A synovia Izraelovi táborili v Gilgale a slávili Veľkú noc, štrnásteho dňa toho mesiaca, večer, na rovinách Jericha.

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.

¹¹A jedli z úrody zeme nasledujúceho dňa po Veľkej noci, nekvasené chleby a pražené zrno, práve toho istého dňa.

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.

¹²A tak prestala manna na druhý deň, keď jedli z úrody zeme, a už viacej nemali synovia Izraelovi manny, ale jedli z úrody Kananejskej zeme toho roku.

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?

¹³A stalo sa, keď bol Jozua pri Jerichu, že pozdvihol svoje oči a videl, že hľa, stojí naproti nemu nejakí muž, a jeho vytasený meč v jeho ruke. A Jozua išiel k nemu a povedal mu: Či si ty za nás a či za našich protivníkov?

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?

¹⁴A muž odpovedal: Nie, lebo ja som knieža vojska Hospodinovho; teraz som prišiel. Vtedy padol Jozua na svoju tvár na zem a klaňal sa a povedal mu: Čo hovorí môj pán svojmu služobníkovi?

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.

¹⁵A knieža vojska Hospodinovho riekol Jozuovi: Sozuj svoju obuv so svojich nôh, lebo miesto, na ktorom stojíš, je sväté. A Jozua urobil tak.
