|

| 2:6 |
Thus says the LORD: 'For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not revoke the punishment;because they sell the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes --
|
| 2:7 |
they that trample the head of the poor into the dust of the earth, and turn aside the way of the afflicted;a man and his father go in to the same maiden, so that my holy name is profaned;
|
| 2:8 |
they lay themselves down beside every altar upon garments taken in pledge;and in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.
|

|
| 2:13 |
'Behold, I will press you down in your place, as a cart full of sheaves presses down.
|
| 2:14 |
Flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not retain his strength, nor shall the mighty save his life;
|
| 2:15 |
he who handles the bow shall not stand, and he who is swift of foot shall not save himself, nor shall he who rides the horse save his life;
|
| 2:16 |
and he who is stout of heart among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day,' says the LORD.
