Joshua 8:12-14
English Standard Version
12 He took about 5,000 men and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, to the west of the city. 13 So they stationed the forces, the main encampment that was north of the city and its rear guard west of the city. But Joshua spent that night in the valley. 14 And as soon as the king of Ai saw this, he and all his people, the men of the city, hurried and went out early to the appointed place[a] toward (A)the Arabah to meet Israel in battle. (B)But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.
