PROVERBS 31:4-7

⁴It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes to say, Where is strong drink?

⁵Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any that is afflicted.

⁶Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto the bitter in soul:

⁷Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
