Amos 2:11

Judgment On Israel

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 some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O you children of Israel? says the LORD. ¹² But you gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
