Proverbs 23:26-31
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 23
26
Give me your heart, my son,
And let your eyes delight in my ways.
27
For a prostitute is a deep pit,
And a strange woman is a narrow well.
28
Certainly she lurks as a robber,
And increases the treacherous among mankind.
29
Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has contentions? Who has complaining?
Who has wounds without cause?
Who has red eyes?
30
Those who linger long over wine,
Those who go to taste mixed wine.
31
Do not look at wine when it is red,
When it sparkles in the cup,
When
it goes down smoothly;
King James Version
Chapter 23
26
My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.
27
For a whore is a deep ditch; and a strange woman is a narrow pit.
28
She also lieth in wait as for a prey, and increaseth the transgressors among men.
29
Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes?
30
They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine.
31
Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 23
26
My son, give me your heart,
and let your eyes observe my ways.
27
For a prostitute is a deep pit,
and a wayward woman is a narrow well;
28
indeed, she sets an ambush like a robber
and increases the number of unfaithful people.
29
Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has conflicts? Who has complaints?
Who has wounds for no reason?
Who has red eyes?
30
Those who linger over wine;
those who go looking for mixed wine.
31
Don’t gaze at wine because it is red,
because it gleams in the cup
and goes down smoothly.
New Living Translation
Chapter 23
26
O my son, give me your heart.
May your eyes take delight in following my ways.
27
A prostitute is a dangerous trap;
a promiscuous woman is as dangerous as falling into a narrow well.
28
She hides and waits like a robber,
eager to make more men unfaithful.
29
Who has anguish? Who has sorrow?
Who is always fighting? Who is always complaining?
Who has unnecessary bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?
30
It is the one who spends long hours in the taverns,
trying out new drinks.
31
Don’t gaze at the wine, seeing how red it is,
how it sparkles in the cup, how smoothly it goes down.
English Standard Version
Chapter 23
26
My son, give me your heart,
and let your eyes observe my ways.
27
For a prostitute is a deep pit;
an adulteress is a narrow well.
28
She lies in wait like a robber
and increases the traitors among mankind.
29
Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has strife? Who has complaining?
Who has wounds without cause?
Who has redness of eyes?
30
Those who tarry long over wine;
those who go to try mixed wine.
31
Do not look at wine when it is red,
when it sparkles in the cup
and goes down smoothly.
New International Version
Chapter 23
26
My son, give me your heart
and let your eyes delight in my ways,
27
for an adulterous woman is a deep pit,
and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
28
Like a bandit she lies in wait
and multiplies the unfaithful among men.
29
Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has strife? Who has complaints?
Who has needless bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?
30
Those who linger over wine,
who go to sample bowls of mixed wine.
31
Do not gaze at wine when it is red,
when it sparkles in the cup,
when it goes down smoothly!
New King James Version
Chapter 23
26
My son, give me your heart,
And let your eyes observe my ways.
27
For a harlot
is
a deep pit,
And a seductress
is
a narrow well.
28
She also lies in wait as
for
a victim,
And increases the unfaithful among men.
29
Who has woe?
Who has sorrow?
Who has contentions?
Who has complaints?
Who has wounds without cause?
Who has redness of eyes?
30
Those who linger long at the wine,
Those who go in search of mixed wine.
31
Do not look on the wine when it is red,
When it sparkles in the cup,
When
it swirls around smoothly;
