Bible verse
You will be like one sleeping on the high seas or lying on the top of a mast:
Proverbs 23:34 · BSB
The verses around it, from Proverbs 23.
30 Those who linger over wine, who go to taste mixed drinks.
31 Do not gaze at wine while it is red, when it sparkles in the cup and goes down smoothly.
32 In the end it bites like a snake and stings like a viper.
33 Your eyes will see strange things, and your mind will utter perversities.
34 You will be like one sleeping on the high seas or lying on the top of a mast:
35 “They struck me, but I feel no pain! They beat me, but I did not know it! When can I wake up to search for another drink?”
