Proverbs 31:4-7
4
It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; Nor for princes to say, Where is strong drink?
5
Lest they drink, and forget the law, And pervert the justice due to any that is afflicted.
6
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, And wine unto the bitter in soul:
7
Let him drink, and forget his poverty, And remember his misery no more.
