Amos 2:13 in context

  1. 11I 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.
  2. 12“But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink,
    and commanded the prophets, saying, ‘Don’t prophesy!’
  3. 13Behold, I will crush you in your place,
    as a cart crushes that is full of grain.
  4. 14Flight will perish from the swift;
    and the strong won’t strengthen his force;
    neither shall the mighty deliver himself;
  5. 15neither 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;
