Josh. 8:15‑29• 15And Joshua and all Israel let themselves be beaten before them; and they fled by the way of the wilderness.
 16And all the people that were in the city were called together to pursue after them; and they pursued after Joshua, and were drawn away from the city.
 17And not a man remained in Ai and Bethel that went not out after Israel; and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel.
 18And Jehovah said to Joshua, Stretch out the javelin that is in thy hand toward Ai; for I will give it into thy hand. And Joshua stretched out the javelin that he had in his hand toward the city.
 19And the ambush arose quickly from their place, and they ran when he stretched out his hand, and came into the city, and took it, and hasted and set the city on fire.
 20And the men of Ai turned and saw, and behold, the smoke of the city went up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that way; and the people that fled to the wilderness turned upon the pursuers.
 21When Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city went up, they turned again, and slew the men of Ai.
 22And the others went out of the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side; and they smote them, until they let none of them escape or flee away.
 23And the king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua.
 24And it came to pass when Israel had ended slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness wherein they had chased them, and they had all fallen by the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, that all Israel returned to Ai, and smote it with the edge of the sword.
 25And so it was, that all who fell that day, men as well as women, were twelve thousand, all the people of Ai.
 26And Joshua did not draw back his hand, which he had stretched out with the javelin, until they had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai.
 27Only, the cattle and the spoil of the city Israel took as prey to themselves, according to the word of Jehovah which he had commanded Joshua.
 28And Joshua burned Ai, and made it an everlasting heap of desolation to this day.
 29And the king of Ai he hanged on a tree until the evening; and at the going down of the sun Joshua commanded, and they took his carcase down from the tree, and threw it down at the entrance of the gate of the city, and raised upon it a great heap of stones, which remains to this day. (Josh. 8:15‑29)
