3Giue not thy strength vnto women, nor thy wayes, which is to destroy Kings.
4It is not for Kings, O Lemuel, it is not for Kings to drink wine nor for princes strog drinke,
5Lest he drinke and forget the decree, and change the iudgement of all the children of affliction.
6Giue ye strong drinke vnto him that is readie to perish, and wine vnto them that haue griefe of heart.
7Let him drinke, that he may forget his pouertie, and remember his miserie no more.
8Open thy mouth for the domme in the cause of all the children of destruction.
9Open thy mouth: iudge righteously, and iudge the afflicted, and the poore.
10Who shall finde a vertuous woman? for her price is farre aboue the pearles.
11The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall haue no neede of spoyle.
12She will doe him good, and not euill all the dayes of her life.
13She seeketh wooll and flaxe, and laboureth cheerefully with her handes.
