1 H1121 But the children H3478 of Israel H4603 committed [H8799] H4604 a trespass H2764 in the accursed thing H5912 : for Achan H1121 , the son H3756 of Carmi H1121 , the son H2067 of Zabdi H1121 , the son H2226 of Zerah H4294 , of the tribe H3063 of Judah H3947 , took [H8799] H2764 of the accursed thing H639 : and the anger H3068 of the LORD H2734 was kindled [H8799] H1121 against the children H3478 of Israel.

2 H3091 And Joshua H7971 sent [H8799] H582 men H3405 from Jericho H5857 to Ai H5973 , which is beside H1007 Bethaven H6924 , on the east side H1008 of Bethel H559 , and spake [H8799] H559 unto them, saying [H8800] H5927 , Go up [H8798] H7270 and view [H8761] H776 the country H582 . And the men H5927 went up [H8799] H7270 and viewed [H8762] H5857 Ai.

3 H7725 And they returned [H8799] H3091 to Joshua H559 , and said [H8799] H5971 unto him, Let not all the people H5927 go up [H8799] H7969 ; but let about two or three H505 thousand H376 men H5927 go up [H8799] H5221 and smite [H8686] H5857 Ai H5971 ; and make not all the people H3021 to labour [H8762] H4592 thither; for they are but few.

4 H5927 So there went up [H8799] H5971 thither of the people H7969 about three H505 thousand H376 men H5127 : and they fled [H8799] H6440 before H582 the men H5857 of Ai.

5 H582 And the men H5857 of Ai H5221 smote [H8686] H7970 of them about thirty H8337 and six H376 men H7291 : for they chased [H8799] H6440 them from before H8179 the gate H7671 even unto Shebarim H5221 , and smote [H8686] H4174 them in the going down H3824 : wherefore the hearts H5971 of the people H4549 melted [H8735] H4325 , and became as water.
