“Don't look at the wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly.”
“Do not look on the wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly.”
“Look not upon the wine when it is yellow, when the colour thereof shineth in the glass: it goeth in pleasantly,”
“Keep your eyes from looking on the wine when it is red, when its colour is bright in the cup, when it goes smoothly down:”
“Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright.”
Yea, she lieth in wait as a robber, And increaseth the treacherous among men.
Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? Who hath complaining? who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eyes?
They that tarry long at the wine; They that go to seek out mixed wine.
Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, When it sparkleth in the cup, When it goeth down smoothly:
At the last it biteth like a serpent, And stingeth like an adder.
Thine eyes shall behold strange things, And thy heart shall utter perverse things.
Yea, 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.
