Drink Quote by Bible
“But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; / And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; / The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, / And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
