Proverbs 31:1-8

The words
<01697>

of king
<04428>

Lemuel
<03927>_,

the prophecy
<04853>

that his mother
<0517>

taught
<03256> (8765)

him.

What, my son
<01248>_?

and what, the son
<01248>

of my womb
<0990>_?

and what, the son
<01248>

of my vows
<05088>_?

Give
<05414> (8799)

not thy strength
<02428>

unto women
<0802>_,

nor thy ways
<01870>

to that which destroyeth
<04229> (8687)

kings
<04428>_.

[It is] not for kings
<04428>_,

O Lemuel
<03927>_,

[it is] not for kings
<04428>

to drink
<08354> (8800)

wine
<03196>_;

nor for
<0335> (8675) <0176>

princes
<07336> (8802)

<07941>_:

Lest they drink
<08354> (8799)_,

and forget
<07911> (8799)

the law
<02710> (8794)_,

and pervert
<08138> (8762)

the judgment
<01779>

of any of the afflicted
<01121> <06040>_.

{prevert: Heb. alter} {of any...: Heb. of all the sons of affliction}

Give
<05414> (8798)

strong drink
<07941>

unto him that is ready to perish
<06> (8802)_,

and wine
<03196>

unto those that be of heavy
<04751>

hearts
<05315>_.

{of...: Heb. bitter of soul}

Let him drink
<08354> (8799)_,

and forget
<07911> (8799)

his poverty
<07389>_,

and remember
<02142> (8799)

his misery
<05999>

no more.

Open
<06605> (8798)

thy mouth
<06310>

for the dumb
<0483>

in the cause
<01779>

of all such as are appointed
<01121>

to destruction
<02475>_.

{such...: Heb. the sons of destruction}
