Joshua 7:5 in Context — Joshua 7
3 E voltando a Josué, disseram-lhe: Não suba todo aquele povo, mas subam como dois mil ou como três mil homens, e tomarão a Ai: não canses a todo aquele povo ali, porque são poucos.
4 E subiram ali do povo como três mil homens, os quais fugiram diante dos de Ai.
5 E os de Ai feriram deles como trinta e seis homens, e seguiram-nos desde a porta até Sebarim, e os feriram na descida: pelo que se dissolveu o coração do povo, e veio a ser como água.
6 Então Josué rasgou suas roupas, e prostrou-se em terra sobre seu rosto diante da arca do SENHOR até à tarde, ele e os anciãos de Israel; e lançaram pó sobre suas cabeças.
7 E Josué disse: Ah, Senhor DEUS! Por que fizeste passar a este povo o Jordão, para entregar-nos nas mãos dos amorreus, que nos destruam? Antes nos tivéssemos ficado da outra parte do Jordão!
