1 Esdras 3:24
King James VersionSource notes
“O ye men, is not wine the strongest, that enforceth to do thus? And when he had so spoken, he held his peace.”
Context
21And it maketh every heart rich, so that a man remembereth neither king nor governor; and it maketh to speak all things by talents:
22And when they are in their cups, they forget their love both to friends and brethren, and a little after draw out swords:
23But when they are from the wine, they remember not what they have done.
24O ye men, is not wine the strongest, that enforceth to do thus? And when he had so spoken, he held his peace.
