Amos 2:13 Context
11And I raised vp of your sonnes for Prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not euen thus, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord ? 12But ye gaue the Nazarites wine to drinke, and commaunded the Prophets, saying, Prophecie not. 13Behold, I am pressed vnder you, as a cart is pressed that is ful of sheaues. 14Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mightie deliuer himselfe: 15Neither shall hee stand that handleth the bow, and hee that is swift of foote, shall not deliuer himselfe, neither shall hee that rideth the horse, deliuer himselfe.
