And it came to pass, when they had done circumcising all the people, that they abode in their places in the camp, till they were whole.

Verse 8 is found in chapter 5 of Joshua. Entering Canaan does not lead directly to battle, but to the renewal of the covenant sign through circumcision. The generation born during the wilderness period must physically assume Israel’s covenant identity. God declares that He has removed the "reproach of Egypt" from them, showing that the new territorial stage also involves spiritual and communal renewal. The conquest cannot be separated from covenant membership, which defines Israel as God’s people.

Und da das ganze Volk beschnitten war, blieben sie an ihrem Ort im Lager, bis sie heil wurden.
Y cuando hubieron acabado de circuncidar toda la gente, quedáronse en el mismo lugar en el campo, hasta que sanaron.
Cuando terminaron de circuncidar a toda la nación, se quedaron en su lugar en el campamento hasta que sanaron.
Lorsqu'on eut achevé de circoncire toute la nation, ils restèrent à leur place dans le camp jusqu'à leur guérison.
E, dopo che si fu finito di circoncidere tutta la gente, dimorarono fermi nel campo, finchè fossero guariti.
E aconteceu que, acabando de circuncidar a toda a nação, ficaram no seu lugar no arraial, até que sararam.
全國的人都受了割禮,留在營中自己的地方,直到痊癒。
