Amos 2:11-13
Lexham English Bible
11 And I raised up some of your sons to be prophets and some of your young men to be Nazirites. Is it not so, O people[a] of Israel? This is the declaration of Yahweh! 12 But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets, saying, ‘You shall not prophesy.’ 13 Look! I am going to press you down in your place just as a utility cart full of mature stalks of grain is pressed down.
