13 “Behold,(A) I am [a]weighed down by you,
As a cart full of sheaves [b]is weighed down.
14 (B)Therefore [c]flight shall perish from the swift,
The strong shall not strengthen his power,
(C)Nor shall the mighty [d]deliver himself;
15 He shall not stand who handles the bow,
The swift of foot shall not [e]escape,
Nor shall he who rides a horse deliver himself.
