| Joshua 8:1 | Then the Lord said to Joshua, Have no fear and do not be troubled: take with you all the fighting-men and go up against Ai: for I have given into your hands the king of Ai and his people and his town and his land: | And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Fear not, nor be affrighted, take with thee all the people of war, and rise, go up to Ai; see, I have given into thy hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land, | Yahweh said to Joshua, Don't be afraid, neither be you dismayed: take all the people of war with you, and arise, go up to Ai; behold, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land; |
| Joshua 8:2 | And you are to do to Ai and its king as you did to Jericho and its king: but their goods and their cattle you may take for yourselves: let a secret force be stationed to make a surprise attack on the town from the back. | and thou hast done to Ai and to her king as thou hast done to Jericho and to her king; only, its spoil and its cattle ye spoil for yourselves; set for thee an ambush for the city at its rear.` | You shall do to Ai and her king as you did to Jericho and her king: only the spoil of it, and the cattle of it, shall you take for a prey to yourselves: set you an ambush for the city behind it. |
| Joshua 8:3 | So Joshua and the fighting-men got ready to go up against Ai; and Joshua took thirty thousand men of war, and sent them out by night. | And Joshua riseth, and all the people of war, to go up to Ai, and Joshua chooseth thirty thousand men, mighty ones of valour, and sendeth them away by night, | So Joshua arose, and all the people of war, to go up to Ai: and Joshua chose out thirty thousand men, the mighty men of valor, and sent them forth by night. |
| Joshua 8:4 | And he gave them their orders, saying, Go and take up your position secretly at the back of the town: do not go very far away, and let all of you be ready: | and commandeth them, saying, `See, ye are liers in wait against the city, at the rear of the city, ye go not very far off from the city, and all of you have been prepared, | He commanded them, saying, Behold, you shall lie in ambush against the city, behind the city; don't go very far from the city, but be you all ready: |
| Joshua 8:5 | And I and all the people with me will come near the town, and when they come out against us as they did before, we will go in flight from them; | and I and all the people who [are] with me draw near unto the city, and it hath come to pass when they come out to meet us as at the first, and we have fled before them, | and I, and all the people who are with me, will approach to the city. It shall happen, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them; |
| Joshua 8:6 | And they will come out after us, till we have got them away from the town; for they will say, They have gone in flight from us as before; so we will go in flight before them; | and they have come out after us till we have drawn them out of the city, for they say, They are fleeing before us as at the first, and we have fled before them, | and they will come out after us, until we have drawn them away from the city; for they will say, They flee before us, as at the first: so we will flee before them; |
| Joshua 8:7 | Then you will get up from your secret position and take the town, for the Lord your God will give it up into your hands. | and ye rise from the ambush, and have occupied the city, and Jehovah your God hath given it into your hand; | and you shall rise up from the ambush, and take possession of the city: for Yahweh your God will deliver it into your hand. |
| Joshua 8:8 | And when you have taken the town, put fire to it, as the Lord has said: see, I have given you your orders. | and it hath been, when ye capture the city, ye burn the city with fire, according to the word of Jehovah ye do, see, I have commanded you.` | It shall be, when you have seized on the city, that you shall set the city on fire; according to the word of Yahweh shall you do: behold, I have commanded you. |
| Joshua 8:9 | So Joshua sent them out: and they took up a secret position between Beth-el and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua kept with the people that night. | And Joshua sendeth them away, and they go unto the ambush, and abide between Bethel and Ai, on the west of Ai; and Joshua lodgeth on that night in the midst of the people. | Joshua sent them forth; and they went to set up the ambush, and stayed between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai: but Joshua lodged that night among the people. |
| Joshua 8:10 | And early in the morning Joshua got up, and put the people in order, and he and the chiefs of Israel went up before the people to Ai. | And Joshua riseth early in the morning, and inspecteth the people, and goeth up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai; | Joshua arose up early in the morning, and mustered the people, and went up, he and the elders of Israel, before the people to Ai. |
| Joshua 8:11 | And all the fighting-men who were with him went up and came near the town, and took up a position on the north side of Ai facing the town, with a valley between him and the town. | and all the people of war who [are] with him have gone up, and draw nigh and come in over-against the city, and encamp on the north of Ai; and the valley [is] between him and Ai. | All the people, [even] the [men of] war who were with him, went up, and drew near, and came before the city, and encamped on the north side of Ai: now there was a valley between him and Ai. |
| Joshua 8:12 | And taking about five thousand men, he put them in position for a surprise attack on the west side of Ai, between Beth-el and Ai. | And he taketh about five thousand men, and setteth them an ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west of the city; | He took about five thousand men, and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city. |
| Joshua 8:13 | So all the people were in their places, the army on the north side of the town and the secret force on the west; and that night Joshua went down into the valley. | and they set the people, all the camp which [is] on the north of the city, and its rear on the west of the city, and Joshua goeth on that night into the midst of the valley. | So they set the people, even all the host who was on the north of the city, and their liers-in-wait who were on the west of the city; and Joshua went that night into the midst of the valley. |
| Joshua 8:14 | Now when the king of Ai saw it, he got up quickly and went out to war against Israel, he and all his people, to the slope going down to the valley; but he had no idea that a secret force was waiting at the back of the town. | And it cometh to pass, when the king of Ai seeth [it], that hasten, and rise early, and go out do the men of the city to meet Israel for battle, he and all his people, at the appointed season, at the front of the plain, and he hath not known that an ambush [is] against him, on the rear of the city. | It happened, when the king of Ai saw it, that they hurried and rose up early, and the men of the city went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the Arabah; but he didn't know that there was an ambush against him behind the city. |
| Joshua 8:15 | Then Joshua and all Israel, acting as if they were overcome before them, went in flight by way of the waste land. | And Joshua and all Israel [seem] stricken before them, and flee the way of the wilderness, | Joshua and all Israel made as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness. |
| Joshua 8:16 | And all the people in Ai came together to go after them; and they went after Joshua, moving away from the town. | and all the people who [are] in the city are called to pursue after them, and they pursue after Joshua, and are drawn away out of the city, | All the people who were in the city were called together to pursue after them: and they pursued after Joshua, and were drawn away from the city. |
| Joshua 8:17 | There was not a man in Ai and Beth-el who did not go out after Israel; and the town was open and unwatched while they went after Israel. | and there hath not been left a man in Ai and Bethel who hath not gone out after Israel, and they leave the city open, and pursue after Israel. | There was not a man left in Ai or Beth-el, who didn't go out after Israel: and they left the city open, and pursued after Israel. |
| Joshua 8:18 | And the Lord said to Joshua, Let your spear be stretched out against Ai; for I will give it into your hands. So Joshua took up his spear, stretching it out in the direction of the town. | And Jehovah saith unto Joshua, `Stretch out with the javelin which [is] in thy hand towards Ai, for into thy hand I give it;` and Joshua stretcheth out with the javelin which [is] in his hand toward the city, | Yahweh said to Joshua, Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai; for I will give it into your hand. Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city. |
| Joshua 8:19 | Then the secret force came quickly from their place, and running forward when they saw his hand stretched out, went into the town and took it, and put fire to it straight away. | and the ambush hath risen [with] haste, out of its place, and they run at the stretching out of his hand, and go into the city, and capture it, and hasten, and burn the city with fire. | The ambush arose quickly out of their place, and they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand, and entered into the city, and took it; and they hurried and set the city on fire. |
| Joshua 8:20 | Then the men of Ai, looking back, saw the smoke of the town going up to heaven, and were unable to go this way or that: and the people who had gone in flight to the waste land were turned back on those who were coming after them. | And the men of Ai look behind them, and see, and lo, the smoke of the city hath gone up unto the heavens, and there hath not been in them power to flee hither and thither and the people who are fleeing to the wilderness have turned against the pursuer, | When the men of Ai looked behind them, they saw, and, behold, the smoke of the city ascended up to heaven, and they had no power to flee this way or that way: and the people who fled to the wilderness turned back on the pursuers. |
| Joshua 8:21 | And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the town had been taken by the surprise attack, and that the smoke of the town had gone up, turning round they overcame the men of Ai. | and Joshua and all Israel have seen that the ambush hath captured the city, and that the smoke of the city hath gone up, and they turn back and smite the men of Ai; | When Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city ascended, then they turned again, and killed the men of Ai. |
| Joshua 8:22 | Then the other force came out of the town against them, so that they were being attacked on this side and on that: and Israel overcame them and let not one of them get away with his life. | and these have come out from the city to meet them, and they are in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that, and they smite them till he hath not left to them a remnant and escaped one; | The others came forth out of the city against them; so they were in the midst of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side: and they struck them, so that they let none of them remain or escape. |
| Joshua 8:23 | But the king of Ai they made prisoner, and took him to Joshua. | and the king of Ai they caught alive, and bring him near unto Joshua. | The king of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua. |
| Joshua 8:24 | Then, after the destruction of all the people of Ai in the field and in the waste land where they went after them, and when all the people had been put to death without mercy, all Israel went back to Ai, and put to death all who were in it without mercy. | And it cometh to pass, at Israel`s finishing to slay all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness in which they pursued them (and they fall all of them by the mouth of the sword till their consumption), that all Israel turn back to Ai, and smite it by the mouth of the sword; | It happened, when Israel had made an end of killing all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness in which they pursued them, and they were all fallen by the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, that all Israel returned to Ai, and struck it with the edge of the sword. |
| Joshua 8:25 | On that day twelve thousand were put to death, men and women, all the people of Ai. | and all who fall during the day, of men and of women, are twelve thousand all men of Ai. | All that fell that day, both of men and women, were twelve thousand, even all the men of Ai. |
| Joshua 8:26 | For Joshua did not take back his hand with the outstretched spear till the destruction of the people of Ai was complete. | And Joshua hath not brought back his hand which he stretched out with the javelin till that he hath devoted all the inhabitants of Ai; | For Joshua didn't draw back his hand, with which he stretched out the javelin, until he had utterly destroyed all the inhabitants of Ai. |
| Joshua 8:27 | But the cattle and the goods from that town, Israel took for themselves, as the Lord had given orders to Joshua. | only, the cattle and the spoil of that city have Israel spoiled for themselves, according to the word of Jehovah which He commanded Joshua. | Only the cattle and the spoil of that city Israel took for prey to themselves, according to the word of Yahweh which he commanded Joshua. |
| Joshua 8:28 | So Joshua gave Ai to the flames, and made it a waste mass of stones for ever, as it is to this day. | And Joshua burneth Ai, and maketh it a heap age-during a desolation unto this day; | So Joshua burnt Ai, and made it a heap forever, even a desolation, to this day. |
| Joshua 8:29 | And he put the king of Ai to death, hanging him on a tree till evening: and when the sun went down, Joshua gave them orders to take his body down from the tree, and put it in the public place of the town, covering it with a great mass of stones, which is there to this day. | and the king of Ai he hath hanged on the tree till even-time, and at the going in of the sun hath Joshua commanded, and they take down his carcase from the tree, and cast it unto the opening of the gate of the city, and raise over it a great heap of stones till this day. | The king of Ai he hanged on a tree until the evening: and at the going down of the sun Joshua commanded, and they took his body down from the tree, and cast it at the entrance of the gate of the city, and raised thereon a great heap of stones, to this day. |
| Joshua 8:30 | Then Joshua put up an altar to the Lord, the God of Israel, in Mount Ebal, | Then doth Joshua build an altar to Jehovah, God of Israel, in mount Ebal, | Then Joshua built an altar to Yahweh, the God of Israel, in Mount Ebal, |
| Joshua 8:31 | In the way ordered by Moses, the servant of the Lord, as it is recorded in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of uncut stones, untouched by any iron instrument: and on it they made burned offerings and peace-offerings to the Lord. | as Moses, servant of Jehovah, commanded the sons of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses an altar of whole stones, over which he hath not waved iron and they cause to go up upon it burnt-offerings to Jehovah, and sacrifice peace-offerings; | as Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of uncut stones, on which no man had lifted up any iron: and they offered thereon burnt offerings to Yahweh, and sacrificed peace-offerings. |
| Joshua 8:32 | And he made there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, writing it before the eyes of the children of Israel. | and he writeth there on the stones the copy of the law of Moses, which he hath written in the presence of the sons of Israel. | He wrote there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he wrote, in the presence of the children of Israel. |
