Amos 2:13-16

New Revised Standard NRS

13 So, I will press you down in your place, just as a cart presses down when it is full of sheaves.

14 Flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not retain their strength, nor shall the mighty save their lives;

15 those who handle the bow shall not stand, and those who are swift of foot shall not save themselves, nor shall those who ride horses save their lives;

16 and those who are stout of heart among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, says the Lord.

New International Version NIV

13 “Now then, I will crush you as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.

14 The swift will not escape, the strong will not muster their strength, and the warrior will not save his life.

15 The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet-footed soldier will not get away, and the horseman will not save his life.

16 Even the bravest warriors will flee naked on that day,” declares the LORD.
