Amos 2:14-16

14 1 2Flight will perish from the swift, And the stalwart will not strengthen his power, Nor the 3mighty man save his 4life.15He who 5grasps the bow will not stand his ground, The swift of foot will not escape, Nor will he who rides the 6horse save his 7life.16Even the 8bravest among the warriors will 9flee naked in that day,” declares the Lord.
