NASB | Habakkuk 2:5 "Furthermore, wine betrays the haughty man, So that he does not stay at home. He enlarges his appetite like Sheol, And he is like death, never satisfied. He also gathers to himself all nations And collects to himself all peoples. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Habakkuk 2:5 "Moreover, wine is treacherous and betrays the arrogant man, So that he does not stay at home. His appetite is large like Sheol, And he is like death, never satisfied. He gathers to himself all nations And collects to himself all peoples [as if he owned them]. |
Bible Question: Where can I find in the Bible about alcohol and drugs? I want to know if they are a sin. |
Bible Answer: Greetings B. Burnette! Proverbs 23:29-35 contains an excellent illustration to the destructiveness of 'lingering long over wine.' Other verses that have to do with drinking are Habakkuk 2:5, Joel 1:5, Hosea 4:18, Ezekiel 44:21, Jeremiah 13:12-14, Ephesians 5:18. As for drugs, the only verses that I could find was where Jesus refused a "drug" in Matthew 27:34 and Mark 15:23. Blessings to you, Nolan |
