Proverbs 23:29-35

29Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has fights? Who has complaining? Who has bruises for no reason? Who has red eyes?

30Those who linger long over wine, who go looking for mixed wine.

31Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it glides down smoothly.

32In the end it bites like a serpent and stings like a viper.

33Your eyes will see strange things. Your heart will utter perverse things.

34Then you will be like one lying down in the heart of the sea, or sprawled on the top of a mast.

35“They hit me! But I was not hurt. They beat me up! But I did not feel it. When will I wake up? I will look for another drink.”
