In context
52If thou abandon thyself to mirth, And stretch forth thy hand in a quarrel, thou shalt be disgraced.
53Milk out milk, and there shall be butter, And if thou wring one’s nostrils there shall come out blood: So if thou extort words, there will come forth quarrels and strifes.
— Proverbs 24:54 —
55What wilt thou keep, my son, what? the words of God. My firstborn son, I speak to thee: What? son of my womb? What? son of my vows?
56Give not thy wealth to women, Nor thy mind and living to remorse. Do all things with counsel: Drink wine with counsel.
