"Be not among winebibbers, Among gluttonous eaters of flesh: "
— Proverbs 23:20, American Standard Version
“Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:”
“Don't be among ones drinking too much wine, or those who gorge themselves on meat:”
“Do not spend time among drunkards, among those who eat too much meat,”
“Be not in the feasts of great drinkers, nor in their revellings, who contribute flesh to eat:”
“Do not be among those who give themselves to wine-drinking, or among those who make themselves full with meat:”
“Be not among winebibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:”
Let not thy heart envy sinners; Butbe thouin the fear of Jehovah all the day long:
For surely there is a reward; And thy hope shall not be cut off.
Hear thou, my son, and be wise, And guide thy heart in the way.
Be not among winebibbers, Among gluttonous eaters of flesh:
For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty; And drowsiness will clothea manwith rags.
Hearken unto thy father that begat thee, And despise not thy mother when she is old.
Buy the truth, and sell it not; Yea, wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.
