1 Timothy 5:23

23 Stop drinking only water, but drink a little wine to help your stomach and your frequent sicknesses.

1 Timothy 5:23 In-Context

21 Before God and Christ Jesus and the chosen angels, I command you to do these things without showing favor of any kind to anyone.
22 Think carefully before you lay your hands onn anyone, and don't share in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
23 Stop drinking only water, but drink a little wine to help your stomach and your frequent sicknesses.
24 The sins of some people are easy to see even before they are judged, but the sins of others are seen only later.
25 So also good deeds are easy to see, but even those that are not easily seen cannot stay hidden.
