Proverbs 23:28 in Context — Proverbs 23
26 Dame, hijo mío, tu corazón, y miren tus ojos por mis caminos.
27 Porque sima profunda es la ramera, y pozo angosto la extraña.
28 También ella, como robador, acecha, y multiplica entre los hombres los prevaricadores.
29 ¿Para quién será el ay? ¿para quién el ay? ¿para quién las rencillas? ¿para quién las quejas? ¿para quién las heridas en balde? ¿para quién lo amoratado de los ojos?
30 Para los que se detienen mucho en el vino, para los que van buscando la mistura.
