Joshua 8:16-18

21st Century King James Version

¹⁶ And all the people who were in Ai were called together to pursue after them, and they pursued after Joshua and were drawn away from the city.

¹⁷ And there was not a man left in Ai or Bethel who went not out after Israel; and they left the city open and pursued after Israel.

¹⁸ And the Lord said unto Joshua, “Stretch out the spear that is in thy hand toward Ai, for I will give it into thine hand.” And Joshua stretched out the spear that he had in his hand toward the city.
