Joshua 7:3-5

The Voice

³ They returned to Joshua with a report.

⁴ So Joshua sent about 3,000 soldiers to Ai; but they were easily repulsed by the defenders, ⁵ who killed 36 of them and pursued them from the gate even to the descent toward Shebarim. When the Israelites heard their soldiers had been defeated, their courage melted away like water.
