New Testament

Amos 2:12-16 Common English Bible (CEB)

12. But you made the nazirites drink wine,and commanded the prophets,saying, "You won’t prophesy."

13. So now I will oppress you,just like a cart is weighed downwhen it is full of harvested grain.

14. Fast runners will find no refuge;the strong will lose their strength;the mighty will be unable to save their lives.

15. Those who shoot the bow won’t survive.Fast runners won’t escape;those who ride horses won’t save themselves.

16. The bravest warriorwill flee away naked in that day,says the Lord.
