1 Timothy 5:23
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Stop drinking only water and use a little wine instead, because of your stomach and your frequent ailments.
In context
21 I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus and the elect angels to maintain these principles without bias, and to do nothing out of partiality.
22 Do not be too quick in the laying on of hands and thereby share in the sins of others. Keep yourself pure.
23 Stop drinking only water and use a little wine instead, because of your stomach and your frequent ailments.
24 The sins of some men are obvious, going ahead of them to judgment; but the sins of others do not surface until later.
25 In the same way, good deeds are obvious, and even the ones that are inconspicuous cannot remain hidden.
