Proverbs 23:27-35
For a prostitute is a deep pit; and a wayward wife is a narrow well.Yes, she lies in wait like a robber, and increases the unfaithful among men.Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaints? Who has needless bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?Those who stay long at the wine; those who go to seek out mixed wine.Don’t look at the wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly.In the end, it bites like a snake, and poisons like a viper.Your eyes will see strange things, and your mind will imagine confusing things.Yes, you will be as he who lies down in the middle of the sea, or as he who lies on top of the rigging:“ They hit me, and I was not hurt! They beat me, and I don’t feel it! When will I wake up? I can do it again. I can find another.”

Romans 13:11-14
Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.The night is far gone, and the day is near. Let’s therefore throw off the deeds of darkness, and let’s put on the armor of light.Let’s walk properly, as in the day; not in reveling and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts, and not in strife and jealousy.But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, for its lusts.
