Proverbs 23:27-35
Prov.23.27-Prov.23.35
Explore this passage in the graph27For a prostitute is a deep pit;
an adulteress is a narrow well. 28She lies in wait like a robber
and increases the traitors among mankind. 29Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has strife? Who has complaining?
Who has wounds without cause?
Who has redness of eyes? 30Those who tarry long over wine;
those who go to try mixed wine. 31Do not look at wine when it is red,
when it sparkles in the cup
and goes down smoothly. 32In the end it bites like a serpent
and stings like an adder. 33Your eyes will see strange things,
and your heart utter perverse things. 34You will be like one who lies down in the midst of the sea,
like one who lies on the top of a mast. 35“They struck me,” you will say, “but I was not hurt;
they beat me, but I did not feel it.
When shall I awake?
I must have another drink.” Read this passage at the publisher: Read in NIV · Read in ESV
