1 Postquam ergo audierunt om nes reges Amorraeorum, qui ha bitabant trans Iordanem ad occidentalem plagam, et cuncti reges Chanaan, qui propinqua possidebant Magno mari loca, quod siccasset Dominus fluenta Iordanis coram filiis Israel, donec transirent, dissolutum est cor eorum, et non remansit in eis spiritus coram filiis Israel.	1 Therefore, after all the kings of the Amorites, who were living across the Jordan toward the western region, and all the kings of Canaan, who possessed the places beside the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel, until they crossed over it, their heart was broken, and there remained in them no spirit, out of fear at the entrance of the sons of Israel.
2 Eo tempore ait Dominus ad Iosue: “ Fac tibi cultros lapideos et circumcide iterum secundo filios Israel ”.	2 So at that time, the Lord said to Joshua: “Make for yourself knives of stone, and circumcise the sons of Israel a second time.”
3 Fecit, quod iusserat Dominus, et circumcidit filios Israel in colle Praeputiorum.	3 He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.
4 Haec autem causa est secundae circumcisionis: omnis populus, qui egressus est ex Aegypto, generis masculini, universi bellatores viri mortui sunt in deserto in via;	4 Now this is the reason for the second circumcision: All the people who departed from Egypt of the male gender, all the men fit for war, died in the desert during the very long wandering way;
5 qui omnes circumcisi erant. Populus autem, qui natus est in deserto, incircumcisus fuit.	5 all these had been circumcised. But the people who were born in the desert,
6 Per quadraginta enim annos ambulabant filii Israel, donec consumerentur omnes homines bellatores, qui non audierant vocem Domini, et quibus iuraverat, ut non ostenderet eis terram, super qua iuraverat patribus eorum, ut daret illis terram lacte et melle manantem.	6 throughout the forty years of the journey in the very broad wilderness, were uncircumcised, until the ones who had not listened to the voice of the Lord were consumed. For he had sworn to them before, that he would not reveal to them the land flowing with milk and honey.
7 Horum filii in locum successerunt patrum et circumcisi sunt a Iosue, quia, sicut nati fuerant, in praeputio erant, nec eos in via aliquis circumciderat.	7 The sons of these ones succeeded to the place of their fathers, and they were circumcised by Joshua. For they were uncircumcised, just as they had been born, and no one had circumcised them along the way.
8 Postquam autem omnes circumcisi sunt, manserunt in eodem castrorum loco, donec sanarentur.	8 Then, after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp until they were healed.
9 Dixitque Dominus ad Iosue: “ Hodie abstuli opprobrium Aegypti a vobis ”. Vocatumque est nomen loci illius Galgala usque in praesentem diem.	9 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have taken away from you the disgrace of Egypt.” And the name of that place was called Gilgal, even to the present day.
10 Manseruntque filii Israel in Galgalis et fecerunt Pascha quarta decima die mensis ad vesperum in campestribus Iericho;	10 And the sons of Israel stayed at Gilgal, and they kept the Passover, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, in the plains of Jericho.
11 et comederunt de frugibus terrae a die altero, azymos panes et polentam hoc ipso die.	11 And on the following day, they ate unleavened bread from the grain of the land, and cooked grain, of the same year.
12 Defecitque manna a die sequenti, postquam comederunt de frugibus terrae, nec usi sunt ultra cibo illo filii Israel, sed comederunt de frugibus terrae Chanaan in anno illo.	12 And the manna ceased after they ate from the grain of the land. And the sons of Israel no longer made use of that food. Instead, they ate from the grain of the present year, from the land of Canaan.
13 Cum autem esset Iosue in agro urbis Iericho, levavit oculos et vidit virum stantem contra se et evaginatum tenentem gladium; perrexitque ad eum et ait: “ Noster es an adversariorum? ”.	13 And when Joshua was in the field of the city of Jericho, he lifted up his eyes, and he saw a man standing opposite him, holding a drawn sword. And he went to him and said, “Are you one of ours, or one of our adversaries?”
14 Qui respondit: “ Nequaquam, sed sum princeps exercitus Domini et nunc veni ”.	14 And he responded: “Not at all. Instead, I am a prince of the host of the Lord, and now I have arrived.”
15 Cecidit Iosue pronus in terram et adorans ait: “ Quid Dominus meus loquitur ad servum suum? ”.	15 Joshua fell prone on the ground. And reverencing, he said, “What does my lord say to his servant?”
16 Et dixit princeps exercitus Domini ad Iosue: “ Solve calceamentum de pedibus tuis; locus enim, in quo stas, sanctus est ”. Fecitque Iosue, ut sibi fuerat imperatum.	16 He said: “Remove your shoes from your feet. For the place on which you stand is holy.” And Joshua did just as he had been commanded.
