Proverbs 23:30-32

Living Bible

^29-30 Whose heart is filled with anguish and sorrow? Who is always fighting and quarreling? Who is the man with bloodshot eyes and many wounds? It is the one who spends long hours in the taverns, trying out new mixtures. ³¹ Don’t let the sparkle and the smooth taste of strong wine deceive you. ³² For in the end it bites like a poisonous serpent; it stings like an adder.
