1 Timothy 5:23

King James 2000

Drink no longer water only, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake and your frequent illnesses.

See the chapter Copy

And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the word, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

And be not drunk with wine, in which is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

Not given to wine, not violent, not greedy of money; but patient, not a brawler, not covetous;

Likewise must the deacons be grave, not double tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of dishonest gain;

For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:

For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, not violent, not given to dishonest gain;

The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becomes holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;
