Sirach 31:30

30 Getting drunk causes fools to lose their temper and do themselves harm, reducing their strength, and adding injuries as well.

Sirach 31:30 In-Context

28 The right amount of wine consumed at the right time makes for a joyful heart and a light spirit.
29 Too much wine drunk in the midst of strife and conflict makes for a bitter spirit.
30 Getting drunk causes fools to lose their temper and do themselves harm, reducing their strength, and adding injuries as well.
31 Don't correct your neighbors at a wine banquet, and don't show them contempt when they are partying; don't say any reproachful word to them, and don't trouble them with any demands.
