11. I made some of your sons prophetsand some of your young men Nazirites.Is this not true, you Israelites?”The Lord is speaking!
12. “But you made the Nazirites drink wine;you commanded the prophets, ‘Do not prophesy!’
13. Look! I will press you down,like a cart loaded down with grain presses down.
14. Fast runners will find no place to hide;strong men will have no strength left;warriors will not be able to save their lives.
15. Archers will not hold their ground;fast runners will not save their lives,nor will those who ride horses.
16. Bravehearted warriors will run away naked in that day.”The Lord is speaking!
