Proverbs 23:33 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 23:33

31 Do not look on the wine when it¹ is red,
When it sparkles in the cup,
When it swirls around smoothly;

32 At the last it bites like a serpent,
And stings like a viper.

33 Your eyes will see strange things,
And your heart will utter perverse things.

34 Yes, you will be like one who lies down in the¹ midst of the sea,
Or like one who lies at the top of the mast, saying:

35 “They^a have struck me, but I was not hurt;
They have beaten me, but I did not feel it.
When shall ^bI awake, that I may seek another drink?”
