Proverbs 23:13-35
New American Standard Bible
13 (A)Do not withhold discipline from a child;
Though you strike him with the rod, he will not die.
14 You shall strike him with the rod
And (B)rescue his soul from Sheol.
15 My son, if your heart is (C)wise,
My own heart also will be glad,
16 And my [a]innermost being will rejoice
When your lips speak (D)what is right.
17 (E)Do not let your heart envy sinners,
But live in [b]the (F)fear of the Lord [c]always.
18 Certainly there is a [d](G)future,
And your (H)hope will not be cut off.
19 Listen, my son, and (I)be wise,
And (J)direct your heart in the way.
20 Do not be with (K)heavy drinkers of wine,
Or with (L)gluttonous eaters of meat;
21 For the (M)heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty,
And (N)drowsiness will clothe one with rags.
22 (O)Listen to your father, who fathered you,
And (P)do not despise your mother when she is old.
23 (Q)Buy truth, and do not sell it,
Get wisdom, instruction, and understanding.
24 The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice,
And (R)he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him.
25 Let your (S)father and your mother be glad,
And let her rejoice who gave birth to you.
26 (T)Give me your heart, my son,
And let your eyes [e](U)delight in my ways.
27 For a prostitute is a (V)deep pit,
And a [f](W)strange woman is a narrow well.
28 Certainly she (X)lurks as a robber,
And increases the treacherous among mankind.
29 Who has (Y)woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has contentions? Who has complaining?
Who has wounds without cause?
Who has red eyes?
30 Those who (Z)linger long over wine,
Those who go to [g]taste (AA)mixed wine.
31 Do not look at wine when it is red,
When it [h]sparkles in the cup,
When it (AB)goes down smoothly;
32 In the end it (AC)bites like a snake
And stings like a (AD)viper.
33 Your eyes will see strange things
And your [i]mind will (AE)say perverse things.
34 And you will be like one who lies down in the [j]middle of the sea,
Or like one who lies down on the top of a [k]mast.
35 “They (AF)struck me, but I did not become [l]ill;
They beat me, but I did not know it.
When will I awake?
I will (AG)seek [m]another drink.”

New International Version
Saying 13
13 Do not withhold discipline from a child;
if you punish them with the rod, they will not die.
14 Punish them with the rod
and save them from death.(A)
Saying 14
15 My son, if your heart is wise,
then my heart will be glad indeed;
16 my inmost being will rejoice
when your lips speak what is right.(B)
Saying 15
17 Do not let your heart envy(C) sinners,
but always be zealous for the fear of the Lord.
18 There is surely a future hope for you,
and your hope will not be cut off.(D)
Saying 16
19 Listen, my son,(E) and be wise,
and set your heart on the right path:
20 Do not join those who drink too much wine(F)
or gorge themselves on meat,
21 for drunkards and gluttons become poor,(G)
and drowsiness clothes them in rags.
Saying 17
22 Listen to your father, who gave you life,
and do not despise your mother when she is old.(H)
23 Buy the truth and do not sell it—
wisdom, instruction and insight as well.(I)
24 The father of a righteous child has great joy;
a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him.(J)
25 May your father and mother rejoice;
may she who gave you birth be joyful!(K)
Saying 18
26 My son,(L) give me your heart
and let your eyes delight in my ways,(M)
27 for an adulterous woman is a deep pit,(N)
and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
28 Like a bandit she lies in wait(O)
and multiplies the unfaithful among men.
Saying 19
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,(P)
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!
32 In the end it bites like a snake
and poisons like a viper.
33 Your eyes will see strange sights,
and your mind will imagine confusing things.
34 You will be like one sleeping on the high seas,
lying on top of the rigging.
35 “They hit me,” you will say, “but I’m not hurt!
They beat me, but I don’t feel it!
When will I wake up
so I can find another drink?”(Q)
