1 Thessalonians 5:7
For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they are that be drunken drunken in the night.

ὡς ἐν ἡμέρᾳ εὐσχημόνως περιπατήσωμεν μὴ κώμοις καὶ μέθαις μὴ κοίταις καὶ ἀσελγείαις μὴ ἔριδι καὶ ζήλῳ
Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
ἐκνήψατε δικαίως καὶ μὴ ἁμαρτάνετε ἀγνωσίαν γὰρ θεοῦ τινες ἔχουσιν πρὸς ἐντροπὴν ὑμῖν λέγω
Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.
κομιούμενοι μισθὸν ἀδικίας ἡδονὴν ἡγούμενοι τὴν ἐν ἡμέρᾳ τρυφήν σπίλοι καὶ μῶμοι ἐντρυφῶντες ἐν ταῖς ἀπάταις αὐτῶν συνευωχούμενοι ὑμῖν
And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they with feast you;
οὐ γὰρ ὡς ὑμεῖς ὑπολαμβάνετε οὗτοι μεθύουσιν ἔστιν γὰρ ὥρα τρίτη τῆς ἡμέρας
For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
אִשְׁתִּיו חַמְרָא וְשַׁבַּחוּ לֵֽאלָהֵי דַּהֲבָא וְכַסְפָּא נְחָשָׁא פַרְזְלָא אָעָא וְאַבְנָֽא׃
They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.
תָּעָה לְבָבִי פַּלָּצוּת בִּֽעֲתָתְנִי אֵת נֶשֶׁף חִשְׁקִי שָׂם לִי לַחֲרָדָֽה׃
My heart panted, fearfulness affrighted me: the night of my pleasure hath he turned into fear unto me.
Προσέχετε δὲ ἑαυτοῖς μήποτε βαρυνθῶσιν ὑμῶν αἱ καρδίαι ἐν κραιπάλῃ καὶ μέθῃ καὶ μερίμναις βιωτικαῖς καὶ αἰφνίδιος ἐφ' ὑμᾶς ἐπιστῇ ἡ ἡμέρα ἐκείνη
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
διὸ λέγει Ἔγειραι ὁ καθεύδων καὶ ἀνάστα ἐκ τῶν νεκρῶν καὶ ἐπιφαύσει σοι ὁ Χριστός
Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ thee shall give light.
לְמִי אוֹי לְמִי אֲבוֹי לְמִי (מדונים) מִדְיָנִים׀ לְמִי שִׂיחַ לְמִי פְּצָעִים חִנָּם לְמִי חַכְלִלוּת עֵינָֽיִם׃
Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes?
וַתָּבֹא אֲבִיגַיִל׀ אֶל-נָבָל וְהִנֵּה-לוֹ מִשְׁתֶּה בְּבֵיתוֹ כְּמִשְׁתֵּה הַמֶּלֶךְ וְלֵב נָבָל טוֹב עָלָיו וְהוּא שִׁכֹּר עַד-מְאֹד וְלֹֽא-הִגִּידָה לּוֹ דָּבָר קָטֹן וְגָדוֹל עַד-אוֹר הַבֹּֽקֶר׃
And Abigail came to Nabal; and, behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunken: wherefore she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light.
בִּשְׂעִפִּים מֵֽחֶזְיֹנוֹת לָיְלָה בִּנְפֹל תַּרְדֵּמָה עַל-אֲנָשִֽׁים׃
In thoughts from the visions of the night, when deep sleep falleth on men,
בַּחֲלוֹם׀ חֶזְיוֹן לַיְלָה בִּנְפֹל תַּרְדֵּמָה עַל-אֲנָשִׁים בִּתְנוּמוֹת עֲלֵי מִשְׁכָּֽב׃
In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed;
