Josue 5:13-15
13 Cierto día Josué, que acampaba cerca de Jericó, levantó la vista y vio a un hombre de pie frente a él, espada en mano. Josué se le acercó y le preguntó:
—¿Es usted de los nuestros, o del enemigo?
14 —¡De ninguno! —respondió—. Me presento ante ti como comandante del ejército del Señor.
Entonces Josué se postró rostro en tierra y le preguntó:
—¿Qué órdenes trae usted, mi Señor, para este siervo suyo?
15 El comandante del ejército del Señor le contestó:
—Quítate las sandalias de los pies, porque el lugar que pisas es sagrado.
Y Josué le obedeció.
Joshua 5:13-15
13 Now when Joshua was near Jericho, he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a drawn sword in his hand. Joshua went up to him and asked, “Are you for us or for our enemies?”
14 “Neither,” he replied, “but as commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.” Then Joshua fell facedown to the ground in reverence, and asked him, “What message does my Lord[e] have for his servant?”
15 The commander of the Lord’s army replied, “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy.” And Joshua did so.
