11. I raised up some of your sons as prophets and some of your young men as Nazirites. Is this not the case, Israelites?This is the Lord’s declaration.
12. But you made the Nazirites drink wineand commanded the prophets,“Do not prophesy.”
13. Look, I am about to crush you in your place as a wagon full of sheaves crushes grain.
14. Escape will fail the swift, the strong one will not prevail by his strength, and the brave will not save his life.
15. The archer will not stand his ground, the one who is swift of footwill not save himself,and the one riding a horse will not save his life.
16. Even the most courageous of the warriorswill flee naked on that day —this is the Lord’s declaration.
