and deprive all the oppressed of their rights.
6 Let beer be for those who are perishing,
wine(D) for those who are in anguish!
7 Let them drink(E) and forget their poverty
and remember their misery no more.

or for rulers to desire[a] strong drink,(A)

and pervert the rights of all the afflicted.
6 Give strong drink to one who is perishing
and wine to those in bitter distress;
7 let them drink and forget their poverty
and remember their misery no more.
