Amos 2:14-16
Contemporary English Version
Amos 2:14-16
Contemporary English Version
14 No matter how fast you run,
you won't escape.
No matter how strong you are,
you will lose your strength
and your life.
15 Even if you are an expert
with a bow and arrow,
you will retreat.
And you won't get away alive,
not even if you run fast
or ride a horse.
16 You may be brave and strong,
but you will run away,
stripped naked.
I, the Lord, have spoken!
Amos 2:14-16
New International Version

14 The swift will not escape,(A)
the strong(B) will not muster their strength,
and the warrior will not save his life.(C)
15 The archer(D) will not stand his ground,
the fleet-footed soldier will not get away,
and the horseman(E) will not save his life.(F)
16 Even the bravest warriors(G)
will flee naked on that day,”
declares the Lord.
