Proverbs 23:31-35

NSB(i) 31 Do not look on the wine when it is red, when it shines in the cup, when it goes down smoothly. 32 In the end it bites like a serpent and stings like a viper. 33 Your eyes will see strange things and your heart (and mind) will utter perverse things. 34 You will be like one who lies down in the middle of the sea; like one who lies on top of a mast. 35 »They struck me but I did not become sick. They beat me and I did not feel it. When will I awake? I will seek drink yet again.«
