Yehoshua 8:21-25 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

21. And when Yehoshua and kol Yisroel saw that the ambush had taken the Ir, and that the ashan HaIr ascended, then they turned again, and attacked the anshei HaAi.

22. Then these came out of the Ir against them; so they were in the midst of Yisroel, some on this side, and some on that side; and they struck them down, until they left none of them sarid (remnant, survivor) or palit (refugee, fugitive).

23. And the melech HaAi (literally, the King of Ruin) they took alive, and brought him to Yehoshua.

24. And it came to pass, when Yisroel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the sadeh, in the midbar wherein they chased them, and when they were all fallen on the edge of the cherev, until they were consumed, that kol Yisroel returned unto Ai, and struck it with the edge of the cherev.

25. And so it was, that all that fell that yom, both of ish and isha, were sheneym asar elef, even kol anshei HaAi.
