Amos 2:14-16

New International Reader's Version

¹⁴ Your fastest runners will not escape.
    The strongest people will not get away.
Even soldiers will not be able
    to save their own lives.
¹⁵ Men who are armed with bows will lose the battle.
    Soldiers who are quick on their feet will not escape.
Horsemen will not be able
    to save their own lives.
¹⁶ Even your bravest soldiers
    will run away naked on that day,”
    announces the Lord.
