1 Timothy 5:23

23 No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

1 Timothy 5:23 In-Context

21 In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without favor, doing nothing from partiality.
22 Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, nor participate in another man's sins; keep yourself pure.
23 No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.
24 The sins of some men are conspicuous, pointing to judgment, but the sins of others appear later.
25 So also good deeds are conspicuous; and even when they are not, they cannot remain hidden.
