Joshua 5:5–12

⁵For all the people who left were circumcised, but all the people born in the wilderness on the journeyⁱ after they left from Egypt were not circumcised. ⁶For forty years the Israelites^j traveled in the wilderness until all the nation, the warriors that left Egypt, perished, because they did not listen to the voice of Yahweh. To them Yahweh swore that they would not see the land that he^k swore to their ancestors^l to give to us, a land flowing with milk and honey. ⁷And it was their children whom he raised in their place that Joshua circumcised, for they were uncircumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the journey.^m

The Israelites Celebrate Passover in Canaan

⁸And it happened, when all the nation had finished circumcising, they remained where they were in the camp until they recovered. ⁹And Yahweh said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the disgrace of Egypt from you.” Therefore, the name of that place is called Gilgalⁿ to this day. ¹⁰And the Israelites^o camped at Gilgal, and they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month, in the evening, on the plains of Jericho. ¹¹On the next day after the Passover, on that^p very day, they ate from the produce of the land, unleavened cakes and roasted corn. ¹²And the manna ceased the day after, when they started eating the produce of the land, and there was no longer manna for the Israelites.^q They ate from the crop of the land of Canaan in that year.
