Joshua 8:16-18

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹⁶ And all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and they pursued Joshua and ^(A)were drawn away from the city. ¹⁷ So not a man was left in Ai or Bethel who had not gone out after Israel, and they left the city ^[a]unguarded and pursued Israel.

¹⁸ Then the Lord said to Joshua, “^(B)Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai, for I will give it into your hand.” So Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.
