Joshua 5:10-15

10On the eveningH6153 of the fourteenthH702H6240 dayH3117 of the monthH2320, while the IsraelitesH1121H3478 were campedH2583 at GilgalH1537 on the plainsH6160 of JerichoH3405, they keptH6213 the PassoverH6453. 11The day afterH4283 the PassoverH6453, on that veryH6106 dayH3117H2088, they ateH398 unleavened breadH4682 and roasted grainH7033 from the produceH5669 of the landH776.

12And the dayH4283 after they had eatenH398 from the produceH5669 of the landH776, the mannaH4478 ceasedH7673. There wasH1961 noH3808 moreH5750 mannaH4478 for the IsraelitesH1121H3478, so thatH1931 yearH8141 they began to eatH398 the cropsH8393 of the landH776 of CanaanH3667.

13Now when JoshuaH3091 wasH1961 near JerichoH3405, he looked upH5375H5869 and sawH7200H2009 a manH376 standingH5975 in front of himH5048 with a drawnH8025 swordH2719 in His handH3027. JoshuaH3091 approachedH1980 HimH413 and askedH559, “Are YouH859 for us orH518 for our enemiesH6862?”

14“NeitherH3808H3588,” He repliedH559. “IH589 have nowH6258 comeH935 as CommanderH8269 of the LORD’sH3068 armyH6635.”

Then JoshuaH3091 fellH5307 facedownH413H6440H776 in reverenceH78121 and askedH559 Him, “WhatH4100 does my LordH113 have to sayH1696 toH413 His servantH5650?”

15The CommanderH8269 of the LORD’sH3068 armyH6635 repliedH559, “Take offH5394 your sandalsH5275, forH3588 the placeH4725 whereH834 youH859 are standingH5975H5921 is holyH6944H1931.”

And JoshuaH3091 didH6213 soH3651.
