Joshua 8:20-24
20When the menH376 of AiH5857 turnedH6437 1backH310 and lookedH7200, beholdH2009, the smokeH6227 of the cityH5892 ascendedH5927 to the skyH8064, and they hadH1961 noH3808 placeH3027 to fleeH5127 thisH2088 wayH2008 or that, for the peopleH5971 who had been fleeingH5127 to the wildernessH4057 turnedH2015 againstH413 the pursuersH7291. 21When JoshuaH3091 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that the men in ambushH693 had capturedH3920 the cityH5892 and that the smokeH6227 of the cityH5892 ascendedH5927, they turnedH7725 backH7725 and 2slewH5221 the menH376 of AiH5857. 223The othersH428 cameH3318 out from the cityH5892 to encounterH7122 them, so that they were trapped in the midstH8432 of IsraelH3478, 4someH428 on thisH2088 sideH2088 and someH428 on that sideH2088; and they 5slewH5221 them untilH5704 6noH1115 one was leftH7604 7of those whoH8300 survivedH8300 or escapedH6412. 23But they tookH8610 aliveH2416 the kingH4428 of AiH5857 and broughtH7126 him to JoshuaH3091.
24Now when IsraelH3478 had finishedH3615 killingH2026 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of AiH5857 in the fieldH7704 in the wildernessH4057 whereH834 they pursuedH7291 them, and allH3605 of them were fallenH5307 by the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719 untilH5704 they were destroyedH8552, then allH3605 IsraelH3478 returnedH7725 to AiH5857 and struckH5221 it with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
