Proverbs:31:1-9
gltv@Proverbs:31:1 @ The words of king Lemuel, the burden that his mother taught him:
gltv@Proverbs:31:2 @ What, my son? And what, the son of my womb? And what, the son of my vows?
gltv@Proverbs:31:3 @ Do not give your strength to women, or your ways to that which wipes out kings.
gltv@Proverbs:31:4 @ It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor for princes to lust for fermented drink,
gltv@Proverbs:31:5 @ that they not drink and forget what is decreed, and pervert the right of the afflicted ones.
gltv@Proverbs:31:6 @ Give fermented drink to one perishing, and wine to the bitter of soul,
gltv@Proverbs:31:7 @ let him drink and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
gltv@Proverbs:31:8 @ Open your mouth for the dumb, in the cause of all the sons of those passing away.
gltv@Proverbs:31:9 @ Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the poor and needy.
