Amos 2:14 - Forerunner Commentary

Amos 2:14

12 “But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink,
And commanded the prophets ^asaying,
‘Do not prophesy!’

13 “Behold,^a I am weighed down by you,
As a cart full of sheaves¹ is weighed down.

14 ^aTherefore¹ flight shall perish from the swift,
The strong shall not strengthen his power,
^bNor shall the mighty¹ deliver himself;

15 He shall not stand who handles the bow,
The swift of foot shall not¹ escape,
Nor shall he who rides a horse deliver himself.

16 The most¹ courageous men of might
Shall flee naked in that day,”
Says the Lord.
