“Kings should not drink wine, Lemuel,
    and rulers should not desire beer.
If they drink, they might forget the law
    and keep the needy from getting their rights.
Give beer to people who are dying
    and wine to those who are sad.
Let them drink and forget their need
    and remember their misery no more.
