Proverbs 31:5


Proverbs 31:4 Proverbs 31:5 (KJV) Proverbs 31:6
[It is] not for kings, O Lemuel, [it is] not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:
Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
