Joshua:8:2-7
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And thou shalt do to Ai and her king as thou didst unto Jericho and her king :
only the spoil thereof ,
and the cattle thereof ,
shall ye take for a prey unto yourselves :
lay thee an ambush for the city behind it .
*
So Joshua arose ,
and all the people of war ,
to go up against Ai :
and Joshua chose out thirty thousand mighty men of valour ,
and sent them away by night .
*
And he commanded them ,
saying ,
Behold ,
ye shall lie in wait against the city ,
even behind the city :
go #
not very far from the city ,
but be ye all ready :
*
And I ,
and all the people that are with me ,
will approach unto the city :
and it shall come to pass ,
when they come out against us ,
as at the first ri #
shown #,
that we will flee before them ,
* (
For 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 ri #
shown #:
therefore we will flee before them .
*
Then ye shall rise up from the ambush ,
and seize upon the city :
for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand .
