Proverbs 23:28-33 Amplified Bible (AMP)

28. She also lies in wait as a robber or as one waits for prey, and she increases the treacherous among men.

29. Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaining? Who has wounds without cause? Who has redness and dimness of eyes?

30. Those who tarry long at the wine, those who go to seek and try mixed wine. [Prov. 20:1; Eph. 5:18.]

31. Do not look at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the wineglass, when it goes down smoothly.

32. At the last it bites like a serpent and stings like an adder.

33. [Under the influence of wine] your eyes will behold strange things [and loose women] and your mind will utter things turned the wrong way [untrue, incorrect, and petulant].
