31 Do not look on the wine when it is red in the cup, but meditate on righteousness.

32 For at the last it bites like a serpent and stings like an adder.

33 When your eyes behold a strange woman, then your heart shall utter perverse things.

34 Yea, you shall be as he who lies down in the midst of the sea, or as a sailor in a tempest.

35 They have beaten me, you shall say, but I did not suffer, they have mocked me, but I did not know it; when I shall awake sober, I will go and seek it yet again.
