Proverbs 31:1-9

The words
<01697>
of king
<04428>
Lemuel
<03927>_,
the prophecy
<04853>
that his mother
<0517>
taught
<03256> (8765)
him.
What, my son
<01248>_?
and what, the son
<01248>
of my womb
<0990>_?
and what, the son
<01248>
of my vows
<05088>_?
Give
<05414> (8799)
not thy strength
<02428>
unto women
<0802>_,
nor thy ways
<01870>
to that which destroyeth
<04229> (8687)
kings
<04428>_.
[It is] not for kings
<04428>_,
O Lemuel
<03927>_,
[it is] not for kings
<04428>
to drink
<08354> (8800)
wine
<03196>_;
nor for
<0335> (8675) <0176>
princes
<07336> (8802)
strong drink
<07941>_:
Lest they drink
<08354> (8799)_,
and forget
<07911> (8799)
the law
<02710> (8794)_,
and pervert
<08138> (8762)
the judgment
<01779>
of any of the afflicted
<01121> <06040>_.
{prevert: Heb. alter} {of any...: Heb. of all the sons of affliction}
Give
<05414> (8798)
strong drink
<07941>
unto him that is ready to perish
<06> (8802)_,
and wine
<03196>
unto those that be of heavy
<04751>
hearts
<05315>_.
{of...: Heb. bitter of soul}
Let him drink
<08354> (8799)_,
and forget
<07911> (8799)
his poverty
<07389>_,
and remember
<02142> (8799)
his misery
<05999>
no more.
Open
<06605> (8798)
thy mouth
<06310>
for the dumb
<0483>
in the cause
<01779>
of all such as are appointed
<01121>
to destruction
<02475>_.
{such...: Heb. the sons of destruction}
Open
<06605> (8798)
thy mouth
<06310>_,
judge
<08199> (8798)
righteously
<06664>_,
and plead
<01777> (8798)
the cause of the poor
<06041>
and needy
<034>_.
