Joshua 8:14-23

14And it cameH1961 aboutH1961, when the kingH4428 of AiH5857 sawH7200 them, that the menH376 of the cityH5892 hurriedH4116 and gotH7925 upH7925 earlyH7925, and wentH3318 outH3318 to meetH7122 IsraelH3478 in battleH4421, he and allH3605 his peopleH5971 at the appointedH4150 placeH4150 beforeH6440 the desertH6160 plainH6160. But he did not knowH3045 that there was an ambushH693 against him behindH4480H310 the cityH5892. 15Then JoshuaH3091 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 1pretendedH5060 toH5060 beH5060 defeatedH5060 beforeH6440 them, and fledH5127 2by the wayH1870 of the wildernessH4057. 16And allH3605 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were in the cityH5892 were calledH2199 togetherH2199 to pursueH7291 them, and they pursuedH7291 JoshuaH3091 and 3were luredH5423 awayH5423 from the cityH5892. 17So not a manH376 was leftH7604 in AiH5857 or BethelH1008, 4but they had all goneH3318 outH3318 afterH310 IsraelH3478, and they leftH5800 the cityH5892 5unguardedH6605 and pursuedH7291 IsraelH3478.

18Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to JoshuaH3091, “6ReachH5186 outH5186 with the swordH3591 that is in your handH3027 towardH413 AiH5857, for I will handH5414H3027 it overH5414 to you.” So JoshuaH3091 reachedH5186 outH5186 with the swordH3591 that was in his handH3027 towardH413 the cityH5892. 19Then the men in ambushH693 roseH6965 quicklyH4120 from their placeH4725, and when he had reachedH5186 outH5186 with his handH3027, they ranH7323 and enteredH935 the cityH5892 and capturedH3920 it, and they quicklyH4116 setH3341 the cityH5892 on fireH784. 20When the menH376 of AiH5857 turnedH6437 7backH310 and lookedH7200, beholdH2009, the smokeH6227 of the cityH5892 ascendedH5927 to the skyH8064, and they hadH1961 noH3808 placeH3027 to fleeH5127 thisH2008 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 8killedH5221 the menH376 of AiH5857. 229The othersH428 cameH3318 outH3318 from the cityH5892 to confrontH7122 them, so that they were trapped in the midstH8432 of IsraelH3478, 10someH428 on thisH2088 sideH2088 and someH428 on that sideH2088; and they 11killedH5221 them untilH5704 there was not 12one 13leftH7604 whoH8300 escapedH8300 or survivedH6412. 23But they capturedH8610 the kingH4428 of AiH5857 aliveH2416 and broughtH7126 him to JoshuaH3091.
