In context
10 And it was, I, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt,—and led you in the desert, forty years, to take possession of the land of the Amorites;
11 And I raised up, of your sons, for prophets, and, of your young men, for Nazirites,—Was it not even so, ye sons of Israel? Demandeth Yahweh;
12 And yet ye caused the Nazirites to drink wine,—and, on the prophet, laid ye command, saying, Ye shall not prophesy!
13 Lo! I, am pressed under you,—as a full cart is pressed by its sheaves,
14 Therefore shall flight, perish, from the swift, and, the mighty, shall not invigorate his strength,—nor shall, the hero, escape with his life;
15 Nor, he that handleth the bow, make a stand, and, the swift on his feet, shall not escape,—nor, he that rideth on a horse, escape with his life:
16 Nay, he that is stout in his heart, among heroes, naked, shall flee, in that day, Declareth Yahweh.
