Proverbs

²⁹Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath complaining? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? ³⁰They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek out mixed wine. ³¹Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth its colour in the cup, when it goeth down smoothly. ³²At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. ³³Thine eyes shall behold strange things, and thine heart shall utter froward things. ³⁴Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast. ³⁵They have stricken me, shalt thou say, and I was not hurt; they have beaten me, and I felt it not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again.
