Amos 2:12-14
Contemporary English Version

12 But you commanded the prophets
    not to speak their message,
and you pressured the Nazirites
    into drinking wine.

13 And so I will crush you,
just as a wagon full of grain
    crushes the ground.[a]
14 No matter how fast you run,
    you won't escape.
No matter how strong you are,
you will lose your strength
    and your life.
