Joshua 8:4-9

4And he commanded them, saying, See, ye shall be in ambush against the city, behind the city: go not very far from the city, and be all of you ready.

5And I and all the people that are with me will approach to the city; and it shall come to pass when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them.

6And they will come out after us till we have drawn them from the city; for they will say, They flee before us, as at the first; and we will flee before them.

7And ye shall rise up from the ambush and take possession of the city; and Jehovah your 1God will deliver it into your hand.

8And it shall be when ye have taken the city, that ye shall set the city on fire; according to the word of Jehovah shall ye do. See, I have commanded you.

9And Joshua sent them forth; and they went to lie in ambush, and abode between Bethel and Ai, on the west of Ai. And Joshua lodged that night among the people.
