Proverbs 31:4-7

1. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:

2. 5 Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.

3. 6 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.

4. 7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
