1 The words of king Lemuel; the oracle which his mother taught him. 2 |Oh, my son. Oh, son of my womb. Oh, son of my vows. 3 Do not give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, or for princes to take strong drink, 5 lest they drink, and forget the decree, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted. Proverbs 31:1-5, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
