- καὶ ἐγὼ καὶ πάντες οἱ μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ προσάξομεν πρὸς τὴν πόλιν, καὶ ἔσται ὡς ἄν ἐξέλθωσιν οἱ κατοικοῦντες Γαὶ εἰς συνάντησιν ἡμῖν καθάπερ καὶ πρώην, καὶ φευξόμεθα ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν.

Haydock's commentary
And turn, &c. Josue had not fled before. (Calmet)
Hebrew, "against us, as at the first, we will flee before them."
