Joshua 8:16-18
Revised Standard Version
16 So all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and as they pursued Joshua they were drawn away from the city. 17 There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel, who did not go out after Israel; they left the city open, and pursued Israel.
18 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai; for I will give it into your hand.” And Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.

New International Version
16 All the men of Ai were called to pursue them, and they pursued Joshua and were lured away(A) from the city. 17 Not a man remained in Ai or Bethel who did not go after Israel. They left the city open and went in pursuit of Israel.
18 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “Hold out toward Ai the javelin(B) that is in your hand,(C) for into your hand I will deliver the city.” So Joshua held out toward the city the javelin that was in his hand.(D)
