Proverbs 31:2-7

2What, my son? and what, O son of my womb? and what, O son of my vows?

3Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to them that destroy kings.

4It is not for kings, Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor for rulers [to say], Where is the strong drink?

5— lest they drink and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the children of affliction.

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

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