I know G1492 your works, G2041 and your labor, G2873 and your patience, G5281 and how G3754 you can G1410 not bear G941 them which are evil: G2556 and you have tried G3985 them which say G5335 they are apostles, G652 and are not, and have found G2147 them liars: G5571
And you shall do H6213 to Ai H5857 and her king H4428 as you did H6213 to Jericho H3405 and her king: H4428 only H7535 the spoil H7998 thereof, and the cattle H929 thereof, shall you take for a prey H962 to yourselves: lay H7760 you an ambush H693 for the city H5892 behind H310 it.
And I, and all H3605 the people H5971 that are with me, will approach H7126 to the city: H5892 and it shall come H1961 to pass, when H3588 they come H3318 out against H7125 us, as at the first, H7223 that we will flee H5127 before H6440 them,
6
(For they will come H3318 out after H310 us) till H5704 we have drawn H5423 them from the city; H5892 for they will say, H559 They flee H5127 before H6440 us, as at the first: H7223 therefore we will flee H5127 before H6440 them.
7
Then you shall rise H6965 up from the ambush, H693 and seize H3423 on the city: H5892 for the LORD H3068 your God H430 will deliver H5414 it into your hand. H3027
8
And it shall be, when you have taken H8610 the city, H5892 that you shall set H3341 the city H5892 on fire: H784 according to the commandment H1697 of the LORD H3068 shall you do. H6213 See, H7200 I have commanded H6680 you.
And the ambush H693 arose H6965 quickly H4120 out of their place, H4725 and they ran H7323 as soon as he had stretched H5186 out his hand: H3027 and they entered H935 into the city, H5892 and took H3920 it, and hurried H4116 and set the city H5892 on fire. H784
And the other H428 issued H3318 out of the city H5892 against H7125 them; so they were in the middle H8432 of Israel, H3478 some H428 on this H2088 side, and some H428 on that side: and they smote H5221 them, so H5704 that they let none H1115 of them remain H8300 or escape. H6412
And the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 came H3318 out, and put the battle H4421 in array H6186 at the entering H6607 in of the gate: H8179 and the Syrians H758 of Zoba, H6678 and of Rehob, H7340 and Ishtob, H382 and Maacah, H4601 were by themselves H905 in the field. H7704
And the rest H3499 of the people H5971 he delivered H5414 into the hand H3027 of Abishai H52 his brother, H251 that he might put them in array H6186 against H7125 the children H1121 of Ammon. H5983
11
And he said, H559 If H518 the Syrians H758 be too strong H2388 for me, then you shall help H3444 me: but if H518 the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 be too strong H2388 for you, then I will come H1980 and help H3467 you.
12
Be of good courage, H2388 and let us play the men H2388 for our people, H5971 and for the cities H5892 of our God: H430 and the LORD H3068 do H6213 that which seems H5869 him good. H2896
13
And Joab H3097 drew near, H5066 and the people H5971 that were with him, to the battle H4421 against the Syrians: H758 and they fled H5127 before H6440 him.
It came H1961 to pass after H310 this H3651 also, that the children H1121 of Moab, H4124 and the children H1121 of Ammon, H5983 and with them other beside the Ammonites, H5984 came H935 against H5921 Jehoshaphat H3092 to battle. H4421
And said, H559 O LORD H3068 God H430 of our fathers, H1 are not you God H430 in heaven? H8064 and rule H4910 not you over all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the heathen? H1471 and in your hand H3027 is there not power H3581 and might, H1369 so that none H369 is able to withstand H3320 you?
Behold, H2009 I say, how they reward H1580 us, to come H935 to cast H1644 us out of your possession, H3425 which H834 you have given us to inherit. H3423
You shall not need to fight H3898 in this H2063 battle: set H3320 yourselves, stand H5975 you still, and see H7200 the salvation H3444 of the LORD H3068 with you, O Judah H3063 and Jerusalem: H3389 fear H3372 not, nor H408 be dismayed; H2865 to morrow H4279 go H3318 out against H6440 them: for the LORD H3068 will be with you.
And when Jehoshaphat H3092 and his people H5971 came H935 to take H962 away the spoil H7998 of them, they found H4672 among them in abundance H7230 both riches H7399 with the dead H6297 bodies, H6297 and precious H2530 jewels, H3627 which they stripped H5337 off for themselves, more than H369 they could carry H4853 away: and they were three H7969 days H3117 in gathering H962 of the spoil, H7998 it was so much.
