2You shall doH6213 to AiH5857 and its kingH4428 justH3512 as you didH6213 to JerichoH3405 and its kingH4428; you shall 1takeH962 onlyH7534 its spoilH7998 and its cattleH929 as plunderH962 for yourselves. 2SetH7760 an ambushH693 for the cityH5892 behindH4480H310 it.”

3So JoshuaH3091 roseH6965 with allH3605 the peopleH5971 of warH4421 to goH5927 up to AiH5857; and JoshuaH3091 choseH977 30,000H7970H505 menH376, valiantH2428 warriorsH1368, and sentH7971 them out at nightH3915. 4He commandedH6680 them, sayingH559, “SeeH7200, you are 3going to ambushH693 the cityH5892 from behindH310 4it. Do not goH7368 veryH3966 farH7368 from the cityH5892, but allH3605 of you be readyH3559.
