Amos 2:12-14

EasyEnglish Bible

¹² ‘But you told the Nazirites to drink wine, like everyone else. And you said to the prophets, “Do not speak messages from God.” 

¹³ So I will punish you. A cart that has a heavy load pushes down on the ground. That is how I will push down on you. ¹⁴ You might try to run away. But nobody will get free. Even the fastest runner will not get free. The strong people will not be strong enough to stop me. The soldiers will not be able to save their lives.
