12 Mas vosotros disteis de beber vino á los Nazareos; y á los profetas mandasteis, diciendo: No profeticéis.

Amós 2:12 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 2:12

hard and heavy things, judgments and denunciations of vengeance, only smooth things; by this authoritative language it appears that this is said of the rulers and governors of the people, as king, princes, and priests; see ( Amos 7:12 Amos 7:13 ) .

13 Pues he aquí, yo os apretaré en vuestro lugar, como se aprieta el carro lleno de haces;
14 Y la huída perecerá del ligero, y el fuerte no esforzará su fuerza, ni el valiente librará su vida;
