Amós 2:15

15 El arquero no resistirá,ni escapará con vida el ágil de piernas,ni se salvará el que monta a caballo.

Amós 2:15 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 2:15

Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow
That is, at some distance, and can make use of his instruments of war afar off; yet will not think it safe to stand his ground, but will betake himself to his heels as fast as he can to save himself: and [he that is] swift of foot shall not deliver [himself];
this is repeated, lest any should place confidence in their agility, and to show how complete and inevitable the affliction will be: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself;
by fleeing on horseback, no more than he that is on foot; no ways that can be devised or thought on would preserve from this general calamity; see ( Psalms 33:17 ) .

14 Entonces no habrá escapatoria para el ágil,ni el fuerte podrá valerse de su fuerza,ni el valiente librará su vida.

15 El arquero no resistirá,ni escapará con vida el ágil de piernas,ni se salvará el que monta a caballo.
