Joshua 5:5–12

⁵For all the people who came out were circumcised, but all the people who were born in the wilderness along the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.

⁶For the sons of Israel walked ^aforty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, ¹perished because they did not listen to the voice of the Lord, ^bto whom the Lord had sworn that He would not let them see the land which the Lord had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

⁷Their children whom He raised up in their place, Joshua ¹circumcised; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them along the way.

⁸Now when they had finished circumcising all the nation, they remained in their places in the camp until they were ¹healed.

⁹Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away ^athe reproach of Egypt from you.” So the name of that place is called ¹Gilgal to this day.

¹⁰While the sons of Israel camped at Gilgal ^athey observed the Passover on the evening of the ^bfourteenth day of the month on the desert plains of Jericho.

¹¹On the ¹day after the Passover, on ²that very day, they ate some of the produce of the land, unleavened cakes and parched grain.

^12aThe manna ceased on the ¹day after they had eaten some of the produce of the land, so that the sons of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate some of the yield of the land of Canaan during that year.
