Proverbs 23:29-35

Show me people who drink too much, who have to try out fancy drinks, and I will show you people who are miserable and sorry for themselves, always causing trouble and always complaining. Their eyes are bloodshot, and they have bruises that could have been avoided.

Don't let wine tempt you, even though it is rich red, and it sparkles in the cup, and it goes down smoothly.

The next morning you will feel as if you had been bitten by a poisonous snake.

Weird sights will appear before your eyes, and you will not be able to think or speak clearly.

You will feel as if you were out on the ocean, seasick, swinging high up in the rigging of a tossing ship.

"I must have been hit," you will say; "I must have been beaten up, but I don't remember it. Why can't I wake up? I need another drink."
