taken in pledge .

they drink wine obtained
through
fines

themselves
down beside every altar on clothes
taken in pledge ;

prophets,

your young men for

Escape
will fail
the swift ,
the strong will
not
prevail
by
his strength,
and
the mighty will
not
save
his
life.
Flight
will perish
from
the swift ;
And
the strong won't
strengthen
his force;
Neither
shall
the mighty deliver
himself;
The
archer
will
not
stand his
ground,
the fleet
of foot will
not
escape ,

will
not
save
his
life.
Neither

he
stand who
handles
the bow;
And
he
who
is
swift
of foot won't
escape ;
Neither
shall
he
who
rides
the horse
deliver
himself;
Even
the bravest
of
mighty men
will flee naked on
that day, ”
declares
the
LORD
.
And
he
who
is
courageous
among
the mighty will flee away
naked in
that day, "
says
Yahweh
.
