Amos 2:14-16

Contemporary English Version

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.
¹⁵ Even if you are an expert
with a bow and arrow,
    you will retreat.
And you won't get away alive,
not even if you run fast
    or ride a horse.
¹⁶ You may be brave and strong,
but you will run away,
    stripped naked.
I, the Lord, have spoken!
