Proverbs 23:19-21
New Living Translation
19 My child, listen and be wise:
Keep your heart on the right course.
20 Do not carouse with drunkards
or feast with gluttons,
21 for they are on their way to poverty,
and too much sleep clothes them in rags.
Proverbs 23:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 Hear, my child, and be wise,
and direct your mind in the way.
20 Do not be among winebibbers
or among gluttonous eaters of meat,(A)
21 for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty,
and drowsiness will clothe them with rags.(B)
