2 Chronicles 20 6-2 Chronicles 20 13
He said: Yahweh, the God of our ancestors, are You not the God who is in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand, and no one can stand against You.Are You not our God who drove out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel and who gave it forever to the descendants of Abraham Your friend?They have lived in the land and have built You a sanctuary in it for Your name and have said,“ If disaster comes on us— sword or judgment, pestilence or famine— we will stand before this temple and before You, for Your name is in this temple. We will cry out to You because of our distress, and You will hear and deliver.”Now here are the Ammonites, Moabites, and the inhabitants of Mount Seir. You did not let Israel invade them when Israel came out of the land of Egypt, but Israel turned away from them and did not destroy them.Look how they repay us by coming to drive us out of Your possession that You gave us as an inheritance.Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast number that comes to fight against us. We do not know what to do, but we look to You.All Judah was standing before the Lord with their infants, their wives, and their children.

Look, I have handed over to you the king of Ai, his people, city, and land.Treat Ai and its king as you did Jericho and its king; you may plunder its spoil and livestock for yourselves. Set an ambush behind the city.”So Joshua and the whole military force set out to attack Ai. Joshua selected 30,000 fighting men and sent them out at night.He commanded them:“ Pay attention. Lie in ambush behind the city, not too far from it, and all of you be ready.Then I and all the people who are with me will approach the city. When they come out against us as they did the first time, we will flee from them.They will come after us until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say,‘ They are fleeing from us as before.’ While we are fleeing from them,you are to come out of your ambush and seize the city, for the Lord your God has handed it over to you.After taking the city, set it on fire. Follow the Lord’s command— see that you do as I have ordered you.”
