- they shall not escape:
- Heb. flight shall perish from them, "Therefore the flightª shall perishª° from the swift,ª¹ and the strongª shall not¹ strengthenª° his force,ª neither¹ shall the mightyª deliverª° himself:ª" {Ams 2:14} + "As if¹ a manª did fleeª° fromª¹ a lion,ª and a bearª metª° him; or wentª° into the house,ª and leanedª° his handª on¹ the wall,ª and a serpentª bitª° him. ... [Shall] not¹ the dayª of the LORDª [be] darkness,ª and not¹ light?ª even very dark,ª and no¹ brightnessª in it?" {Ams 5:19-20} + "I sawª°¹ the Lordª standingª° upon¹ the altar:ª and he said,ª° Smiteª° the lintel¹ of the door,² that the postsª may shake:ª° and cutª° them in the head,ª all¹ of them; and I will slayª° the lastª of them with the sword:ª he that fleethª° of them shall not¹ flee away,ª° and he that escapethª of them shall not¹ be delivered.ª° ... And though¹ they hide²° themselves¹ in the topª of Carmel,ª I will searchª° and take¹ them out²° thence;¹¹ and though¹ they be hidª° from¹¹ my sightª in the bottomª of the sea,ª thence¹¹ will I commandª°¹ the serpent,ª and he shall biteª° them:" {Ams 9:1-3} + "Howª shall weª escape,ª° if we neglectª° so greatª salvation;ª whichª at the first² beganª°¹ to be spokenª° byª the¹ Lord,ª and¹ was confirmedª° untoª usª byª them that heardª° [him];" {Hbr 2:3}
