Joshua 8:14-16
Revised Standard Version
14 And when the king of Ai saw this he and all his people, the men of the city, made haste and went out early to the descent[a] toward the Arabah to meet Israel in battle; but he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city. 15 And Joshua and all Israel made a pretense of being beaten before them, and fled in the direction of the wilderness. 16 So all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and as they pursued Joshua they were drawn away from the city.
