Joshua 5:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 So their sons whom he raised up in their stead, Joshua circumcised: for they were uncircumcised, because they circumcised them not by the way.
8 And when they had made an end of circumcising all the people, they abode in the places in the camp till they [a]were whole.
9 After, the Lord said unto Joshua, This day I have taken away the [b]shame of Egypt from you: wherefore he called the name of that place, Gilgal, unto this day.
