Then on the seventh day, they got up at dawn and marched around the city seven times in the same manner. That was the only day they circled the city seven times.
Read word by wordAfter the seventh time around, the priests blew the horns, and Joshua commanded the people, “Shout! For the LORD has given you the city!
Read word by wordNow the city and everything in it must be devoted to the LORD for destruction. Only Rahab the prostitute and all those with her in her house will live, because she hid the spies we sent.
Read word by wordBut keep away from the things devoted to destruction, lest you yourself be set apart for destruction. If you take any of these, you will set apart the camp of Israel for destruction and bring disaster upon it.
Read word by wordSo when the rams’ horns sounded, the people shouted. When they heard the blast of the horn, the people gave a great shout, and the wall collapsed. Then all the people charged straight into the city and captured it.
Read word by wordWith the edge of the sword they devoted to destruction everything in the city—man and woman, young and old, oxen, sheep, and donkeys.
Read word by wordMeanwhile, Joshua told the two men who had spied out the land, “Go into the house of the prostitute and bring out the woman and all who are with her, just as you promised her.”
Read word by wordSo the young spies went in and brought out Rahab, her father and mother and brothers, and all who belonged to her. They brought out her whole family and settled them outside the camp of Israel.
Read word by wordAnd Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute, with her father’s household and all who belonged to her, because she hid the men Joshua had sent to spy out Jericho. So she has lived among the Israelites to this day.
Read word by wordAt that time Joshua invoked this solemn oath: “Cursed before the LORD is the man who rises up and rebuilds this city, Jericho; at the cost of his firstborn he will lay its foundations; at the cost of his youngest he will set up its gates.”
Read word by wordMeanwhile, Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is near Beth-aven to the east of Bethel, and told them, “Go up and spy out the land.” So the men went up and spied out Ai.
Read word by wordOn returning to Joshua, they reported, “There is no need to send all the people; two or three thousand men are enough to go up and attack Ai. Since the people of Ai are so few, you need not wear out all our people there.”
Read word by word“O, Lord GOD,” Joshua said, “why did You ever bring this people across the Jordan to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites to be destroyed? If only we had been content to stay on the other side of the Jordan!
Read word by wordWhen the Canaanites and all who live in the land hear about this, they will surround us and wipe out our name from the earth. Then what will You do for Your great name?”
Read word by wordIsrael has sinned; they have transgressed My covenant that I commanded them, and they have taken some of what was devoted to destruction. Indeed, they have stolen and lied, and they have put these things with their own possessions.
Read word by wordGet up and consecrate the people, saying, ‘Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, for this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: Among you, O Israel, there are things devoted to destruction. You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove them.
Read word by wordThe one who is caught with the things devoted to destruction must be burned, along with all that belongs to him, because he has transgressed the covenant of the LORD and committed an outrage in Israel.’”
Read word by wordSo Joshua arose early the next morning and had Israel come forward tribe by tribe, and the tribe of Judah was selected.
Read word by wordHe had the clans of Judah come forward, and the clan of the Zerahites was selected. He had the clan of the Zerahites come forward, and the family of Zabdi was selected.
Read word by wordAnd he had the family of Zabdi come forward man by man, and Achan son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was selected.
Read word by word“It is true,” Achan replied, “I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel. This is what I did:
Read word by wordThen Joshua, together with all Israel, took Achan son of Zerah, the silver, the cloak, the bar of gold, his sons and daughters, his oxen and donkeys and sheep, his tent, and everything else he owned, and brought them to the Valley of Achor.
Read word by word“Why have you brought this trouble upon us?” said Joshua. “Today the LORD will bring trouble upon you!” And all Israel stoned him to death. Then they stoned the others and burned their bodies.
Read word by wordThen the LORD said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid or discouraged. Take the whole army with you, and go up and attack Ai. See, I have delivered into your hand the king of Ai, his people, his city, and his land.
Read word by wordwith these orders: “Pay attention. You are to lie in ambush behind the city, not too far from it. All of you must be ready.
Read word by wordThey will pursue us until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say, ‘The Israelites are running away from us as they did before.’ So as we flee from them,
Read word by wordyou are to rise from the ambush and seize the city, for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand.
Read word by wordAnd when you have taken the city, set it on fire. Do as the LORD has commanded! See, I have given you orders.”
Read word by wordJoshua got up early the next morning and mobilized his men, and he and the elders of Israel marched before them up to Ai.
Read word by wordNow Joshua had taken about five thousand men and set up an ambush between Bethel and Ai, to the west of the city.
Read word by wordSo the forces were stationed with the main camp to the north of the city and the rear guard to the west of the city. And that night Joshua went into the valley.
Read word by wordNot a man was left in Ai or Bethel who did not go out after Israel, leaving the city wide open while they pursued Israel.
Read word by wordand as soon as he did so, the men in ambush rose quickly from their position. They rushed forward, entered the city, captured it, and immediately set it on fire.
Read word by wordWhen Joshua and all Israel saw that the men in ambush had captured the city and that smoke was rising from it, they turned around and struck down the men of Ai.
Read word by wordMeanwhile, those in the ambush came out of the city against them, and the men of Ai were trapped between the Israelite forces on both sides. So Israel struck them down until no survivor or fugitive remained.
Read word by wordBut they took the king of Ai alive and brought him to Joshua.
Read word by wordWhen Israel had finished killing all the men of Ai who had pursued them into the field and wilderness, and when every last one of them had fallen by the sword, all the Israelites returned to Ai and put it to the sword as well.
Read word by wordJoshua did not draw back the hand that held his battle lance until he had devoted to destruction all who lived in Ai.
Read word by wordIsrael took for themselves only the cattle and plunder of that city, as the LORD had commanded Joshua.
Read word by wordSo Joshua burned Ai and made it a permanent heap of ruins, a desolation to this day.
Read word by wordHe hung the king of Ai on a tree until evening, and at sunset Joshua commanded that they take down the body from the tree and throw it down at the entrance of the city gate. And over it they raised a large pile of rocks, which remains to this day.
Read word by wordjust as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded the Israelites. He built it according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses: “an altar of uncut stones on which no iron tool has been used.” And on it they offered burnt offerings to the LORD, and they sacrificed peace offerings.
Read word by wordAnd there in the presence of the Israelites, Joshua inscribed on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.
Read word by wordAll Israel, foreigners and citizens alike, with their elders, officers, and judges, stood on both sides of the ark of the covenant of the LORD facing the Levitical priests who carried it. Half of the people stood in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded earlier, to bless the people of Israel.
Read word by wordAfterward, Joshua read aloud all the words of the law—the blessings and the curses—according to all that is written in the Book of the Law.
Read word by wordBut the people of Gibeon, having heard what Joshua had done to Jericho and Ai,
Read word by word“Your servants have come from a very distant land,” they replied, “because of the fame of the LORD your God. For we have heard the reports about Him: all that He did in Egypt,
Read word by wordand all that He did to the two kings of the Amorites beyond the Jordan—Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth.
Read word by wordThis bread of ours was warm when we packed it at home on the day we left to come to you. But look, it is now dry and moldy.
Read word by wordThen the men of Israel sampled their provisions but did not seek the counsel of the LORD.
