Amos 2:13-16

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹³ So, I will press you down in your place,
    just as a cart presses down
    when it is full of sheaves.^[a]
14 Flight shall perish from the swift,
    and the strong shall not retain their strength,
    nor shall the mighty save their lives;
¹⁵ those who handle the bow shall not stand,
    and those who are swift of foot shall not save themselves,
    nor shall those who ride horses save their lives;
¹⁶ and those who are stout of heart among the mighty
    shall flee away naked in that day,
says the Lord.
