Joshua 7:4

The Sin Of Achan

³ And they returned unto Joshua and said unto him - Let not all the people go up, about two thousand men or three thousand men, can go up and smite Ai, - do not weary the whole people to go thither, for, but few, they are. ⁴ There went up thither of the people therefore, about three thousand men, - but they fled before the men of Ai. ⁵ And the men of Ai smote of them about thirty-six men, and pursued them before the gate as far as the Shebarim, and smote them on the slope, - so that the heart of the people melted and became as water.
