Proverbes 23:20 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 23:20

Be not amongst winebibbers
Who drink to excess, otherwise wine may be drank, provided moderation is used; but it is not good to be in company with, excessive drinkers of it, lost a habit of excessive drinking should be acquired; among riotous eaters of flesh;
flesh may be lawfully eaten, but not in a riotous manner, so as to indulge to gluttony and surfeiting; nor should such persons be kept company with that do so, lest their ways should be learned and imitated.

Proverbes 23:20 In-Context

18 Car il y aura certainement une bonne issue, et ton attente ne sera point trompée.
19 Toi, mon fils, écoute, et deviens sage, et dirige ton cœur dans la bonne voie
20 Ne sois point avec les buveurs de vin, ni avec ceux qui aiment la bonne chère.
21 Car le buveur et le gourmand deviendront pauvres, et le dormeur portera des haillons
22 Écoute ton père; c'est celui qui t'a donné la vie; et ne méprise point ta mère quand elle sera devenue vieille.
