Joshua 8:24 in Context — Joshua 8
22 Les autres sortirent de la ville à leur rencontre, et les gens d’Aï furent enveloppés par Israël de toutes parts. Israël les battit, sans leur laisser un survivant ni un fuyard;
23 ils prirent vivant le roi d’Aï, et l’amenèrent à Josué.
24 Lorsqu’Israël eut achevé de tuer tous les habitants d’Aï dans la campagne, dans le désert, où ils l’avaient poursuivi, et que tous furent entièrement passés au fil de l’épée, tout Israël revint vers Aï et la frappa du tranchant de l’épée.
25 Il y eut au total douze mille personnes tuées ce jour-là, hommes et femmes, tous gens d’Aï.
26 Josué ne retira point sa main qu’il tenait étendue avec le javelot, jusqu’à ce que tous les habitants eussent été dévoués par interdit.
