And when Joshua,.... Or "for Joshua" z:
and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city; which they knew by the smoke, as follows:
and that the smoke of the city ascended; in large columns, which sufficiently indicated that the whole city was taken and fired by the ambush:
then, or, "and",
they turned again and slew the men of Ai; great numbers of them.
