Woe unto him that giveth hi
neighbor drink. that putteth Oh,
bottle TO him, and maketh hin
drunken also, that thou mayes
look on their nakedness,
Thou art filed with shame fol
glory; drink thou also, and the cul
of the Lords right hand shall b,
turned unto thee and shameful
spewing shall be on thy glory.
For the violence of Lebanon shall
cover thee, and the spoil of tn,
beasts which made them afraid
because of mems blood, and for tn,
violence of the land, of the city
and of all that dwell therein.
Come We, say they, I viii fetel
wine, and we viii fill ourselves
with strong drink; and to morrow
shall be as this day, and much more
abundant
Do not drink wine nor strong
drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee,
lest We die; it shall be statute for.
ever throughout your generations.
Be not among wine bibbers;
among riotous eaters of flesh; for
the drunkard and the glutton shall
come to poverty; and drowsiness
shall clothe man with rags
Now, therefore, beware, / pray
thee. and drink not wine nor strong
drink, and eat not any unclean
thing.
Wine is n mocker and strong
drink is raging, and whosoever is
deceived thereby, is not wise.
1t is not for kings, oh, Lemuel,
it is not for kings to drink wine :;
nor for princes strong drink; lest
they drink and forget the law, and
prevent the Judgment of any of the
afflicted.
In the day of our king the
princes have made him sick with
bottles of wine; be stretched out
his hand with scorners-
Yea also, because he transgress
eth by wine, he is proud man,
neither keepeth at home, who en-
largeth his desire like he'll, and is
as death, and cannot be satisfied,
but gathereth unto him all nations,
and heapeth unto him all people;
for they have made ready their
heart like an oven, while they lie
in wait; their baker sleepeth all
the night; in the morning it burn
eth as a flaming FIRE. 40
Voc unto them that rise up early
in the morning, that they may fol-
low strong drink; that continue
until night, till wine intIame them.
And the harp, and virol, the
tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in
their feasts; but they regard not
the work of the Lord, neither con
slider the operation of his hands
Woe unto them that are mighty
to drink wine, and men OF strength
to m;ngle strong drink; which just
ify the wicked for reward, and take
away the righteousness of the
righteous from him.
Therefore as the fire devoureth
the stubble, and the flame consum
eth the chaff, SO their root shall be
as rottenness, and their blossom
shall go up as dust; because they
have cast away the law of the Lord
of hosts, and despised the word of
the Holy One of Israel
Woe to the crown of pride, to
the drunkards of Ephraim, whose
glorious beauty is fading flower,
I'll, @f e.
valleys of them that are overcome
with wine!
And all the kings of the north,
far and near, one with another, and
all the kingdoms of the world,
which are upon the face of the earth,
and the king of Sheshach shall
drink after them.
Therefore thou shalt say unto
them thus saith the Lord of hosts,
the God of Israel; drink ye and be
drunken, and spew, and fall, and
rise no more, because of the sword
which I will send among you; for
while they be folden together as
thorns, and while they are drunken
rs drunkards, they shall be de
voured as stubble fully dry.
Awake, ye drunkards, and weep;
and howl, all ye drinkers of wine,
because of the new wine; forit is
cut off from your mouth.
They that sit in the gate speak
against me; and / am the song of
the drunkards.
For their wine is of the vine of
Sodom, and of the Gelds of Gomor-
rah; their grapes are grapes of gall,
their clusters are bitter.
Their wine is the poison of drag
ons, and the cruel venom of asps.
But they also have erred through
wine, and through strong drink are
out of the way; the priest and the
prophet have erred through strong
drink, they are swallowed up of
wine, they are out of the way
through strong drink; they err IN
vision, they stumble In judgment.
For oil tables are full of vomit
and filthiness, SO that there is no
place clean.
