In context

4He commanded them, saying, “Behold, you shall lie in ambush against the city, behind the city. Don’t go very far from the city, but all of you be ready.

5I and all the people who are with me will approach the city. It shall happen, when they come out against us, as at the first, that we will flee before them.

6They will come out after us until we have drawn them away from the city; for they will say, ‘They flee before us, like the first time.’ So we will flee before them,
