12 And he took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Bethel and between Ai, on the west side of the city. 13 And they had set the people, all the army that was on the north of the city, and its rear guard on the west of the city, and Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley. 14 And it came to pass, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hurried and rose early and went out—the men of the city—against Israel into battle, he and all his people, at an appointed place before the face of the plain. And he did not know that an ambush was against him behind the city. Joshua 8:12-14, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
