Proverbs 23:33-35
Common English Bible
33 Your eyes will see strange things,
and your heart will speak distorted words.
34 You will be like one who lies down while out on the sea[a]
or one who lies on top of a mast.
35 “Though hit, I feel no pain;
though beaten up, I don’t know anything about it.
When I wake up,
I’ll look for wine again!”

lying on top of the rigging.

They beat me, but I don’t feel it!
When will I wake up
so I can find another drink?”(A)
