| 31 | Do not look on the wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly. | Do not look at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup and goes down smoothly. | Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly! | |
| 32 | Afterward it bites like a snake, and stings like a viper. | In the end it bites like a serpent and stings like an adder. | In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper. | |
| 33 | Your eyes will see strange things, and your mind will speak perverse things. | Your eyes will see strange things, and your heart utter perverse things. | Your eyes will see strange sights, and your mind will imagine confusing things. | |
| 34 | And you will be like one who lies down in the midst of the sea, and like one who lies down on the top of the rigging. | You will be like one who lies down in the midst of the sea, like one who lies on the top of a mast. | You will be like one sleeping on the high seas, lying on top of the rigging. | |
| 35 | You will say, |They have struck me, but I am not harmed! They beat me, but I did not know it! When will I awake? I will look for another drink.| | “They struck me,” you will say, “but I was not hurt; they beat me, but I did not feel it. When shall I awake? I must have another drink.” | “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?” | |
