Proverbs 23:20-22
The Voice
20 Do not spend time with heavy wine drinkers
or those who gorge themselves on meat.
21 For both the drunk and the glutton will end up broke,
sleeping life away, and clothed in rags.
22 Pay attention to your father—after all, he gave you life—
and don’t ignore your mother in her old age.
Proverbs 23:20-22
New International Version
20 Do not join those who drink too much wine(A)
or gorge themselves on meat,
21 for drunkards and gluttons become poor,(B)
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.(C)
