Joshua 8:12-14

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹² And he took about five thousand men and set them to lie in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.

¹³ And the people, all the camp that was on the side of the north came near to the city, and their ambush on the west of the city. And Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley.

¹⁴ When the king of Ai saw it, he rose up early in the morning and made haste with the men of the city to go out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at a time appointed, before the plain; but he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.
