Joshua 5:9-12
Living Bible
8-9 And the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have ended your shame of not being circumcised.”[a] So the place where this was done was called Gilgal (meaning, “to end”), and is still called that today. After the ceremony the entire nation rested in camp until the raw flesh of their wounds had been healed.
10 While they were camped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, they celebrated the Passover during the evening of April first.[b] 11-12 The next day they began to eat from the gardens and grain fields which they invaded, and they made unleavened bread. The following day no manna fell, and it was never seen again! So from that time on they lived on the crops of Canaan.

New International Version
9 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” So the place has been called Gilgal[a](A) to this day.
10 On the evening of the fourteenth day of the month,(B) while camped at Gilgal on the plains of Jericho, the Israelites celebrated the Passover.(C) 11 The day after the Passover, that very day, they ate some of the produce of the land:(D) unleavened bread(E) and roasted grain.(F)
Footnotes
- Joshua 5:9 Gilgal sounds like the Hebrew for roll.
