Joshua 5:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ Luring the forty years of the journey in the wide wilderness, were uncircumcised: till all they were consumed that had not heard the voice of the Lord, and to whom he had sworn before, that he would not shew them the land flowing with milk and honey.

⁷ The children of these succeeded in the place of their fathers, and were circumcised by Josue: for they were uncircumcised even as they were born, and no one had circumcised them in the way.

⁸ Now after they were all circumcised, they remained in the same place of the camp, until they were healed.
