Amos 2:14 in Context — Amos 2

12 Mas aos nazireus destes de beber vinho; e aos profetas mandastes, dizendo: Não profetizeis.

13 Pois eis que eu vos esmagarei em vosso lugar, tal como uma carroça cheia de feixes esmaga;

14 De modo que o veloz não conseguirá escapar, nem o forte conseguirá usar de sua força, nem o guerreiro livrará sua vida;

15 E o que maneja o arco não subsistirá, nem o veloz de pés se livrará, nem o que monta em cavalo livrará sua vida.

16 O mais corajoso entre os guerreiros fugirá nu naquele dia, diz o SENHOR.
