Proverbs 23:31

when . . . red—the color denoting greater strength (compare Genesis 49:11; Deuteronomy 32:14).

giveth . . . cup—literally, "gives its eye," that is, sparkles.

moveth . . . aright—Perhaps its foaming is meant.



Proverbs 23:26-35

A solemn warning against whoredom and drunkenness (Hosea 4:11).

give me—This is the address of that divine wisdom so often presented (Proverbs 8:1; Proverbs 9:3, etc.).

heart—confidence.

observe—keep.

my ways—such as I teach you (Proverbs 3:17; Proverbs 9:6).
