Amos 2:12

10 And I brought you up from the land of Egypt and led you forty years in the wilderness, that you might take possession of the land of the Amorite.

11 I raised up prophets from your sons and Nazirites from your young men. Is this not true, O children of Israel?” declares the LORD.

“But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.

13 Behold, I am about to crush you in your place as with a cart full of grain.

14 Escape will fail the swift, the strong will not prevail by his strength, and the mighty will not save his life.

Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
