Tree Of Life Version

Proverbs 23:30-35 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

30. Those who linger long over wine, who go looking for mixed wine.

31. Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it glides down smoothly.

32. In the end it bites like a serpent and stings like a viper.

33. Your eyes will see strange things. Your heart will utter perverse things.

34. Then you will be like one lying down in the heart of the sea, or sprawled on the top of a mast.

35. “They hit me! But I was not hurt. They beat me up! But I did not feel it. When will I wake up? I will look for another drink.”
