Joshua 8:7-9

EasyEnglish Bible

⁷ Then you must leave the place where you have hidden. Go into the city and take it. The Lord your God will give it to you. ⁸ When you have taken the city, start to burn it. Do what the Lord has told you to do. Be sure that you obey my commands.’

⁹ Then Joshua sent the men away. They went and they hid on the west side of Ai, between Bethel and Ai. But Joshua stayed with his other soldiers that night.
