Is it not so, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord? 12And you will present wine to the Nazarites: and command the prophets, saying: Prophesy not. 13Behold, I will screak under you as a wain screaketh that is laden with hay. 14And flight shall perish from the swift, and the valiant shall not possess his strength, neither shall the strong save his life. 15And he that holdeth the bow shall not stand, and the swift of foot shall not escape, neither shall the rider of the horse save his life. 16And the stout of heart among the valiant shall flee away naked in that day, saith the Lord. ‹Previous chapterAmos 1Next chapterAmos 3›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.VersionsAmos 2 across 9 versionsShow all 9WEB - World English BibleKJV - King James VersionASV - American Standard VersionDarby - Darby BibleYLT - Young's Literal TranslationWebster - Webster BibleGeneva - Geneva BibleDouay - Douay-Rheims ChallonerRV1909 - Reina-Valera 1909Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
