Amos 2:15
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.
The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet of foot will not escape, and the horseman will not save his life.
16 Even the bravest of mighty men will flee naked on that day,” declares the LORD.
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.
