Joshua 8:14-23

And it came to pass, when the king
<04428>
of Ai
<05857>
saw
<07200> (8800)
[it], that they hasted
<04116> (8762)
and rose up early
<07925> (8686)_,
and the men
<0582>
of the city
<05892>
went out
<03318> (8799)
against
<07125> (8800)
Israel
<03478>
to battle
<04421>_,
he and all his people
<05971>_,
at a time appointed
<04150>_,
before
<06440>
the plain
<06160>_;
but he wist
<03045> (8804)
not that [there were] liers in ambush
<0693> (8802)
against him behind
<0310>
the city
<05892>_.
And Joshua
<03091>
and all Israel
<03478>
made as if they were beaten
<05060> (8735)
before
<06440>
them, and fled
<05127> (8799)
by the way
<01870>
of the wilderness
<04057>_.
And all the people
<05971>
that [were] in Ai
<05857> (8675) <05892>
were called
<02199> (8735)
together to pursue
<07291> (8800)
after
<0310>
them: and they pursued
<07291> (8799)
after
<0310>
Joshua
<03091>_,
and were drawn away
<05423> (8735)
from the city
<05892>_.
And there was not a man
<0376>
left
<07604> (8738)
in Ai
<05857>
or Bethel
<01008>_,
that went not out
<03318> (8804)
after
<0310>
Israel
<03478>_:
and they left
<05800> (8799)
the city
<05892>
open
<06605> (8803)_,
and pursued
<07291> (8799)
after Israel
<03478>_.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Joshua
<03091>_,
Stretch out
<05186> (8798)
the spear
<03591>
that [is] in thy hand
<03027>
toward Ai
<05857>_;
for I will give
<05414> (8799)
it into thine hand
<03027>_.
And Joshua
<03091>
stretched out
<05186> (8799)
the spear
<03591>
that [he had] in his hand
<03027>
toward the city
<05892>_.
And the ambush
<0693> (8802)
arose
<06965> (8804)
quickly
<04120>
out of their place
<04725>_,
and they ran
<07323> (8799)
as soon as he had stretched out
<05186> (8800)
his hand
<03027>_:
and they entered
<0935> (8799)
into the city
<05892>_,
and took
<03920> (8799)
it, and hasted
<04116> (8762)
and set
<03341> (8686)
the city
<05892>
on fire
<0784>_.
And when the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>
looked
<06437> (8799)
behind
<0310>
them, they saw
<07200> (8799)_,
and, behold, the smoke
<06227>
of the city
<05892>
ascended up
<05927> (8804)
to heaven
<08064>_,
and they had no power
<03027>
to flee
<05127> (8800)
this way or that way
<02008>_:
and the people
<05971>
that fled
<05127> (8801)
to the wilderness
<04057>
turned back
<02015> (8738)
upon the pursuers
<07291> (8802)_.
{power: Heb. hand}
And when Joshua
<03091>
and all Israel
<03478>
saw
<07200> (8804)
that the ambush
<0693> (8802)
had taken
<03920> (8804)
the city
<05892>_,
and that the smoke
<06227>
of the city
<05892>
ascended
<05927> (8804)_,
then they turned again
<07725> (8799)_,
and slew
<05221> (8686)
the men
<0582>
of Ai
<05857>_.
And the other
<0428>
issued out
<03318> (8804)
of the city
<05892>
against
<07125> (8800)
them; so they were in the midst
<08432>
of Israel
<03478>_,
some on this side, and some on that side: and they smote
<05221> (8686)
them, so that
<05704>
they let
<07604> (8689)
none of them remain
<08300>
or escape
<06412>_.
And the king
<04428>
of Ai
<05857>
they took
<08610> (8804)
alive
<02416>_,
and brought
<07126> (8686)
him to Joshua
<03091>_.
