New Testament

Amos 2:11-16 World English Bible (WEB)

11. I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Isn’t this true, you children of Israel?” says Yahweh.

12. “But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets, saying, ‘Don’t prophesy!’

13. Behold, I will crush you in your place, as a cart crushes that is full of grain.

14. Flight will perish from the swift; and the strong won’t strengthen his force; neither shall the mighty deliver himself;

15. neither shall he stand who handles the bow; and he who is swift of foot won’t escape; neither shall he who rides the horse deliver himself;

16. and he who is courageous among the mighty will flee away naked on that day,” says Yahweh.
