Proverbs 23:33

A Conservative Version

Thine eyes shall behold strange things, and thy heart shall utter perverse things.

See the chapter Copy

On the day of our king the rulers made themselves sick with the heat of wine. He stretched out his hand with scoffers.

They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice [due] to any who is afflicted.

to deliver thee from the way of evil, from the men who speak perverse things,

Those who sit in the gate talk of me, and [I am] the song of the drunkards.

Yea, thou shall be as he who lays down in the midst of the sea, or as he who lays upon the top of a mast.

Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever errs thereby is not wise.
