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.
