10 Also it was aI who brought you up from the land of Egypt,
And bled you forty years through the wilderness,
To possess the land of the Amorite.
And bled you forty years through the wilderness,
To possess the land of the Amorite.
11 I raised up some of your sons as aprophets,
And some of your young men as bNazirites.
Is it not so, O you children of Israel?”
Says the Lord.
And some of your young men as bNazirites.
Is it not so, O you children of Israel?”
Says the Lord.
14 aTherefore1 flight shall perish from the swift,
The strong shall not strengthen his power,
bNor shall the mighty1 deliver himself;
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.
The swift of foot shall not1 escape,
Nor shall he who rides a horse deliver himself.
