Joshua 8:19-23

¹⁹the ambushments, that were hid, rose up anon; and they went to the city, and took it, and burnt it. (those in ambush, who were hid, rose up at once; and they went into the city, and took it, and set it afire.)

²⁰Forsooth the men of the city, that pursued Joshua, beheld, and saw the smoke of the(ir) city ascend till to (the) heaven(s); and they might no more flee hither and thither; most(ly) since they that had feigned flight, and went to (the) wilderness, withstood strongliest against the pursuers (or now strongly withstood their pursuers).

²¹And Joshua saw, and all Israel, that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city went up; and he turned again, and killed the men of Ai. (And Joshua, and all of Israel, saw that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city went up; and then they turned, and killed the men of Ai.)

²²And also those men that had taken and burnt the city, went out of the city against their enemies, and they began to smite the middle men of their enemies, (or And those men who had taken and set the city afire, now came out of the city against their enemies, and they began to strike down the enemies who were in their midst); and when their adversaries were slain behind and before, so that no man of so great a multitude was saved,

²³they took also the king of Ai living (or they took the king of Ai alive), and they brought him to Joshua.
