Proverbs 31:3-10

³Do not exhaust your energy having sex EUP with women to whom you are not married, with women who ruin kings by having sex with them.

⁴Lemuel, kings should not be constantly drinking wine or greatly desire to drink other strong/alcoholic drinks.

⁵If they do that, they forget the laws that they have made, and they do not do what is right for poor/afflicted people.

⁶Give strong/alcoholic drinks to those who are dying and to those who are ◄greatly distressed/suffering very much►.

⁷If they drink, they will forget that they are poor, and they will not think about their distress/troubles anymore.

⁸Speak MTY to defend people who are unable to defend themselves; speak to encourage others to do what is right for those who are helpless.

⁹Speak MTY ◄on their behalf/to help them► and try to cause judges to decide matters fairly/justly; try to cause others to do for poor and needy people what should be done for them.

¹⁰It is very difficult for a man to RHQ find a wife who is good and who is capable of doing many things. Any woman who is like that is worth more than jewels.
