New Testament

Proverbs 23:28-34 New Century Version (NCV)

28. They ambush you like robbersand cause many men to be unfaithful to their wives.

29. Who has trouble? Who has pain?Who fights? Who complains?Who has unnecessary bruises?Who has bloodshot eyes?

30. It is people who drink too much wine,who try out all different kinds of strong drinks.

31. Don’t stare at the wine when it is red,when it sparkles in the cup,when it goes down smoothly.

32. Later it bites like a snakewith poison in its fangs.

33. Your eyes will see strange sights,and your mind will be confused.

34. You will feel dizzy as if you’re in a storm on the ocean,as if you’re on top of a ship’s sails.
