Joshua 5:6-8

Legacy Standard Bible

⁶ For the sons of Israel had walked ^(A)forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, were completely destroyed because they did not listen to the voice of Yahweh, ^(B)to whom Yahweh had sworn that He would not let them see the land which Yahweh had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey. ⁷ And their sons whom He raised up in their place, Joshua ^[a]circumcised; for they were uncircumcised because they had not circumcised them along the way.

⁸ Now it happened that when they had completed circumcising all the nation, they remained in their places in the camp until they were ^[b]healed.
