Joshua 8:27-29

Evangelical Heritage Version

²⁷ But the livestock and the plunder from that city the Israelites took as spoils of war for themselves, according to the word of the Lord that he had commanded Joshua.

²⁸ Then Joshua burned Ai and reduced it to a mound of rubble, which lies in ruins to this day. ²⁹ He hanged the king of Ai on a tree^[a] until evening. When the sun was setting, Joshua gave the command, and they took down his corpse from the tree and threw it at the entrance to the gatehouse of the city. Then they erected a large heap of stones over him, which remains to this day.
