9 And he sent them away, and they went on to the place of the ambush, and abode between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the city of Hai. But Josue stayed that night in the midst of the people,
and to send: depart them Joshua and to go: went to(wards) [the] ambush and to dwell between Bethel Bethel and between [the] Ai from sea: west to/for Ai and to lodge Joshua in/on/with night [the] he/she/it in/on/with midst [the] people
10 And rising early in the morning, he mustered his soldiers, and went up with the ancients in the front of the army environed with the aid of the fighting men.

and to take: take like/as five thousand man and to set: make [obj] them to ambush between Bethel Bethel and between [the] Ai from sea: west to/for city
13 But all the rest of the army went in battle array on the north side, so that the last of that multitude reached to the west side of the city. So Josue went that night, and stood in the midst of the valley.
and to set: put [the] people: soldiers [obj] all [the] camp which from north to/for city and [obj] heel his from sea: west to/for city and to go: continue Joshua in/on/with night [the] he/she/it in/on/with midst [the] valley
14 And when the king of Hai saw this, he made haste in the morning, and went out with all the army of the city, and set it in battle array toward the desert, not knowing that there lay an ambush behind his back.

20 And the men of the city, that pursued after Josue, looking back and seeing the smoke of the city rise up to heaven, had no more power to flee this way or that way: especially as they that had counterfeited flight, and were going toward the wilderness, turned back most valiantly against them that pursued.

22 And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved.
