'Sober' in the Bible

In the morning, when Nabal was sober, his wife told him about these matters. He had a stroke and was paralyzed.

Sorrow is better than laughter, because sober reflection is good for the heart.

For by the grace given to me I say to every one of you not to think more highly of yourself than you ought to think, but to think with sober discernment, as God has distributed to each of you a measure of faith.

Sober up as you should, and stop sinning! For some have no knowledge of God -- I say this to your shame!

So then we must not sleep as the rest, but must stay alert and sober.

But since we are of the day, we must stay sober by putting on the breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet our hope for salvation.

Therefore, get your minds ready for action by being fully sober, and set your hope completely on the grace that will be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed.

Be sober and alert. Your enemy the devil, like a roaring lion, is on the prowl looking for someone to devour.
