Joshua 8:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 Also the [a]other issued out of the city against them: so were they in the midst of Israel, these being on the one side, and the rest on the other side: and they slew them, so that they let none of them (A)remain nor escape.
23 And the King of Ai they took alive, and brought him to Joshua.
24 And when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, that is, in the wilderness where they chased them, and when they were all fallen on the edge of the sword, until they were consumed, all the Israelites returned unto Ai, and [b]smote it with the edge of the sword.
