Joshua 8:26-28

Expanded Bible

²⁶ Joshua ·had held his spear toward Ai, as a sign to destroy the city, and did not draw it back [^Ldid not draw back the hand that held his spear/javelin] until all the people of Ai were ·destroyed [devoted to destruction; 2:10; 6:17]. ²⁷ The people of Israel kept for themselves the animals and the ·other things the people of Ai had owned [plunder of the city], as the Lord had commanded Joshua to do.

²⁸ Then Joshua burned the city of Ai and made it [^Lpermanently; forever] a pile of ruins. And it is still like that today.
