Joshua 5:5-7

5For all the peopleH5971 that came out wereH1961 circumcisedH4135; but all the peopleH5971 that wereH1961 born in the wildernessH4057 by the wayH1870 as they came forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714, they had not circumcisedH4135. 6For the children of IsraelH3478 walkedH1980 fortyH705 yearsH8141 in the wildernessH4057, till all the nationH1471, even the menH376 of warH4421 that cameH3318 forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714, were consumed, because they hearkened not unto the voiceH6963 of Jehovah: unto whom Jehovah sware that he would not let them seeH7200 the landH776 which Jehovah sware unto their fathersH1 that he would giveH5414 us, a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706. 7And their children, whom he raisedH6965 up in their stead, them did JoshuaH3091 circumciseH4135: for they wereH1961 uncircumcisedH6189, because they had not circumcisedH4135 them by the wayH1870.
