'Attacked' in the Bible

When Israel finished slaughtering all the inhabitants of Ai in the open field, in the wilderness where they pursued them, and when all of them had fallen by {the edge of the sword} until they all had perished, all Israel returned [to] Ai and attacked it with {the edge of the sword}.

So Joshua, and {all the fighting men} with him, came against them suddenly at the waters of Merom, and {they attacked them}.
