Proverbs:31:1-11
Seeker Overlay ON
*
The words of king Lemuel ,
the prophecy that his mother taught him .
*
What ,
my son ?
and what ,
the son of my womb ?
and what ,
the son of my vows ?
*
Give not thy strength unto women ,
nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings .
*
It is not for kings ,
O Lemuel ,
it is not for kings to drink wine ;
nor for princes strong drink :
*
Lest they drink ,
and forget the law ,
and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted .
*
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish ,
and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts .
*
Let him drink ,
and forget his poverty ,
and remember his misery no more .
*
Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction .
*
Open thy mouth ,
judge righteously ,
and plead the cause of the poor and needy .
*
Who can find a virtuous woman ?
for her price is far above rubies .
*
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her ,
so that he shall have no need of spoil .
