Amos 2:13-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 Look, I am groaning beneath you,
as a wagon groans when laden with sheaves.
14 Flight shall elude the swift,
and the strong shall not retain strength;(A)
The warrior shall not save his life,
15 nor shall the archer stand his ground;
The swift of foot shall not escape,
nor shall the horseman save his life.
16 And the most stouthearted of warriors
shall flee naked on that day—
oracle of the Lord.
Amos 2:13-16
New International Version
13 “Now then, I will crush you
as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.(A)
14 The swift will not escape,(B)
the strong(C) will not muster their strength,
and the warrior will not save his life.(D)
15 The archer(E) will not stand his ground,
the fleet-footed soldier will not get away,
and the horseman(F) will not save his life.(G)
16 Even the bravest warriors(H)
will flee naked on that day,”
declares the Lord.
