Amos 2:9-13
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 2
9
'Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them,
Though his height
was
like the height of cedars
And he
was as
strong as the oaks;
I also destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
10
And it was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt,
And led you in the wilderness for forty years
So that you might take possession of the land of the Amorite.
11
Then I raised up some of your sons to be prophets,
And some of your young men to be Nazirites.
Is this not so, you sons of Israel?' declares the
Lord
.
12
'But you made the Nazirites drink wine,
And you commanded the prophets, saying, ‘You shall not prophesy!’
13
Behold, I am making a rut
in the ground
beneath you,
Just as a wagon makes a rut when filled with sheaves.
King James Version
Chapter 2
9
Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
10
Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11
And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the
Lord
.
12
But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13
Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 2
9
Yet I destroyed the Amorite as Israel advanced;
his height was like the cedars,
and he was as sturdy as the oaks;
I destroyed his fruit above and his roots beneath.
10
And I brought you from the land of Egypt
and led you forty years in the wilderness
in order to possess the land of the Amorite.
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 wine
and commanded the prophets,
"Do not prophesy."
13
Look, I am about to crush you in your place
as a wagon crushes when full of grain.
New Living Translation
Chapter 2
9
'But as my people watched,
I destroyed the Amorites,
though they were as tall as cedars
and as strong as oaks.
I destroyed the fruit on their branches
and dug out their roots.
10
It was I who rescued you from Egypt
and led you through the desert for forty years,
so you could possess the land of the Amorites.
11
I chose some of your sons to be prophets
and others to be Nazirites.
Can you deny this, my people of Israel?'
asks the
Lord
.
12
'But you caused the Nazirites to sin by making them drink wine,
and you commanded the prophets, ‘Shut up!’
13
'So I will make you groan
like a wagon loaded down with sheaves of grain.

As a cart full of sheaves is weighed down.
