Proverbs 23:31-35 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

31. So be careful with wine. It is pretty and red as it sparkles in the cup. And it goes down so smoothly when you drink it.

32. But in the end, it will bite like a snake.

33. Wine will cause you to see strange things and to say things that make no sense.

34. When you lie down, you will think you are on a rough sea and feel like you are at the top of the mast.

35. You will say, “They hit me, but I never felt it. They beat me, but I don’t remember it. Now I can’t wake up. I need another drink.”
