Proverbs 31:4-7
Christian Standard Bible
4 It is not for kings, Lemuel,
it is not for kings(A) to drink wine(B)
or for rulers to desire beer.
5 Otherwise, he will drink,
forget what is decreed,(C)
and pervert justice for all the oppressed.[a](D)
6 Give beer to one who is dying
and wine to one whose life is bitter.(E)
7 Let him drink so that he can forget his poverty
and remember his trouble no more.(F)
