Joshua 8:22-29 and these have come out from the city to meet them, and they are in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that, and they smite them till he has not left to them a remnant and escaped one;"

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² and these have come out from the city to meet them, and they are in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that, and they smite them till he has not left to them a remnant and escaped one;" ²³ and the king of Ai they caught alive, and bring him near unto Joshua. ²⁴ And it comes to pass, at Israel's finishing to slay all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness in which they pursued them (and they fall all of them by the mouth of the sword till their consumption), that all Israel turn back to Ai, and smite it by the mouth of the sword;" ²⁵ and all who fall during the day, of men and of women, are twelve thousand--all men of Ai. ²⁶ And Joshua has not brought back his hand which he stretched out with the javelin till that he has devoted all the inhabitants of Ai; ²⁷ only, the cattle and the spoil of that city have Israel spoiled for themselves, according to the word of Yahweh which He commanded Joshua. ²⁸ And Joshua burns Ai, and makes it a heap eonian--a desolation unto this day;" ²⁹ and the king of Ai he has hanged on the tree till even-time, and at the going in of the sun has Joshua commanded, and they take down his carcase from the tree, and cast it unto the opening of the gate of the city, and raise over it a great heap of stones till this day.
