Amos 2:14 in Context (Verses 11–16 KJV)
11
And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD.
12
But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13
Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.*
14
Therefore the 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 the LORD.*
