Proverbs 31:6-8

The Voice

⁶     Rather, give liquor to one who is dying,
        and offer wine to those struggling with life’s harsh realities.
⁷     Let such a one drink and forget what he is missing;
        then perhaps he won’t remember his sorrows anymore.
⁸     Speak out on behalf of those who have no voice,
        and defend all those who have been passed over.
