11 I also raised up your sons to be prophets, and from your young men I raised up Nazirites. Is this not true, people of Israel?| declares the LORD. 12 |But you forced the Nazirites to drink wine, and commanded the prophets, 'You are not to prophesy!' 13 |Oh, how I am burdened down with you, as a wagon is overloaded with harvested grain! 14 So the swift runner will not escape, the valiant will not fortify his strength, and the mighty warrior will not save his life. 15 The skilled archer will not be able to stand, the swift runner will not survive, and the mounted rider will not preserve his own life. 16 Even the bravest of elite troops will run away naked at that time,| declares the LORD.
