Then ye shall rise up from the ambush, and seize upon the city: for the LORD your God will deliver it into your hand.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 8 of Joshua. After resolving Achan’s sin, God again permits Israel to advance against Ai and gives detailed instructions for an ambush. The difference from Jericho is important: here Joshua uses a concrete military strategy, but he still acts under divine command. Victory does not eliminate the need for human planning; rather, strategy is integrated into God’s direction. Joshua carefully prepares his men and positions the ambush behind the city.

sollt ihr euch aufmachen aus dem Hinterhalt und die Stadt einnehmen; denn der HERR, euer Gott, wird sie in eure Hände geben.
Entonces vosotros os levantaréis de la emboscada, y os echaréis sobre la ciudad; pues Jehová vuestro Dios la entregará en vuestras manos.
Entonces ustedes se levantarán de la emboscada y se apoderarán de la ciudad; Jehová su Dios la entregará en sus manos.
Vous sortirez alors de l'embuscade, et vous vous emparerez de la ville, et l'Eternel, votre Dieu, la livrera entre vos mains.
Allora levatevi dagli agguati, e occupate la città; perciocchè il Signore Iddio vostro ve la darà nelle mani.
Então saireis vós da emboscada, e tomareis a cidade; porque o SENHOR vosso Deus vo-la dará nas vossas mãos.
那時,你們就從埋伏的地方起來,奪取那城,因為耶和華-你們的上帝必把城交在你們的手裏。
