1 The words of king Lemuel; the oracle which his mother taught him. 2 What, my son? and what, O son of my womb? And what, O son of my vows? 3 Give not thy strength unto women, Nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; Nor for princes to say, Where is strong drink? 5 Lest they drink, and forget the law, And pervert the justice due to any that is afflicted. Proverbs 31:1-5, American Standard Version. Public domain.
