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. 15 And Joshua and all Israel were struck before their faces, and they fled by the way of the wilderness. 16 And all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue after them, and they pursued after Joshua, and they were drawn away from the city. 17 And there was left not a man in Ai and Bethel who did not go out after Israel. And they left the city open and pursued after Israel. Joshua 8:14-17, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
