Joshua 5:4
—
4
约书亚行割礼的缘故，是因为从埃及出来的众民，就是一切能打仗的男丁，出了埃及以后，都死在旷野的路上。
yuē shū yà xíng gē lǐ de yuán gù ， shì yīn wèi cóng āi jí chū lái de zhòng mín ， jiù shì yí qiè néng dǎ zhàng de nán dīng ， chū le āi jí yǐ hòu ， dōu sǐ zài kuàng yě de lù shang 。
This is the reason Joshua circumcised them: all the people who came out of Egypt, who were males, even all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way, after they came out of Egypt.
