<03478>

committed
<04603> (8799)

a trespass
<04604>

in the accursed thing

<03063>_,

took
<03947> (8799)

of the accursed thing
<02764>_:

and the anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)

<06924>

<01008>_,

and spake
<0559> (8799)

unto them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Go up
<05927> (8798)

and view
<07270> (8761)

the country

And they returned
<07725> (8799)

to Joshua
<03091>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Let not all the people
<05971>

go up
<05927> (8799)_;

but let about two or three
<07969>

thousand
<0505>

men
<0376>

go up
<05927> (8799)

and smite
<05221> (8686)

Ai
<05857>_;

[and] make not all the people
<05971>

to labour
<03021> (8762)

thither; for they [are but] few
<04592>_.

{about...: Heb. about two thousand men, or, about three thousand men}
