5All the people that came out had been circumcised, but all the people born in the wilderness during the journey from Egypt had not. 6The Israelites had moved about in the wildernessa forty yearsb until all the men who were of military age when they left Egypt had died, since they had not obeyed the Lord. For the Lord had sworn to them that they would not see the land he had solemnly promised their ancestors to give us,c a land flowing with milk and honey.d 7So he raised up their sons in their place, and these were the ones Joshua circumcised. They were still uncircumcised because they had not been circumcised on the way. 8And after the whole nation had been circumcised, they remained where they were in camp until they were healed.e

9Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” So the place has been called Gilgalcf to this day.

10On the evening of the fourteenth day of the month,g while camped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, the Israelites celebrated the Passover.h 11The day after the Passover, that very day, they ate some of the produce of the land:i unleavened breadj and roasted grain.k 12The manna stopped the day afterd they ate this food from the land; there was no longer any manna for the Israelites, but that year they ate the produce of Canaan.l
