Yosua 6:5

6:5 When you hear the signal from the ram’s horn, ¹  have the whole army give a loud battle cry. ²  Then the city wall will collapse ³  and the warriors should charge straight ahead.” ⁴ 

Yosua 7:3

7:3 They returned and reported to Joshua, ⁵  “Don’t send the whole army. ⁶  About two or three thousand men are adequate to defeat Ai. ⁷  Don’t tire out the whole army, for Ai is small.” ⁸ 

[6:5]  ¹ tn Heb “and it will be at the sounding of the horn, the ram’s horn, when you hear the sound of the ram’s horn.” The text of Josh 6:5 seems to be unduly repetitive, so for the sake of English style and readability, it is best to streamline the text here. The reading in the Hebrew looks like a conflation of variant readings, with the second (“when you hear the sound of the ram’s horn”) being an interpolation that assimilates the text to verse 20 (“when the army heard the sound of the horn”). Note that the words “when you hear the sound of the ram's horn” do not appear in the LXX of verse 5.

[6:5]  ² tn Heb “all the people will shout with a loud shout.”

[7:3]  ⁵ tn Heb “and they returned to Joshua and said to him.”

[7:3]  ⁶ tn Heb “Don’t let all the people go up.”

[7:3]  ⁷ tn Heb “Let about two thousand men or about three thousand men go up to defeat Ai.”

[7:3]  ⁸ tn Heb “all the people for they are small.”
