Amos 2

11  And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazirites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith Jehovah.

12  But ye gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.

13  Behold, I will press `you' in your place, as a cart presseth that is full of sheaves.

14  And flight shall perish from the swift; and the strong shall not strengthen his force; neither shall the mighty deliver himself;

15  Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver `himself'; neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself;

16  And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith Jehovah.
