4 It is not for kings, 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 anyone who is afflicted.

6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul.

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

8 Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are left desolate.

9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and serve justice to the poor and needy.”
