Joshua:8:18-22
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And the LORD said unto Joshua ,
Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward Ai ;
for I will give it into thine hand .
And Joshua stretched out the spear that he had in his hand toward the city .
*
And the ambush arose quickly out of their place ,
and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand :
and they entered into the city ,
and took it ,
and hasted and set the city on fire .
*
And when the men of Ai looked behind them ,
they saw ,
and ,
behold ,
the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven ,
and they had no power to flee this way or that way :
and the people that fled to the wilderness turned back upon the pursuers .
*
And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city ,
and that the smoke of the city ascended ,
then they turned again ,
and slew the men of Ai .
*
And the other #
el-leh #
issued out of the city against them ;
so they were in the midst of Israel Yisra #
el #,
some on this side ,
and some on that side :
and they smote them ,
so that they let none of them remain or escape .
