The words <H1697> of king <H4428> Lemuel, <H3927> the prophecy <H4853> that his mother <H0517> taught <H3256> him.
2
What, my son? <H1248> and what, the son <H1248> of my womb? <H0990> and what, the son <H1248> of my vows? <H5088>
3
Give <H5414> not thy strength <H2428> unto women, <H0802> nor thy ways <H1870> to that which destroyeth <H4229> kings. <H4428>
4
[It is] not for kings, <H4428> O Lemuel, <H3927> [it is] not for kings <H4428> to drink <H8354> wine; <H3196> nor for princes <H7336> <H0335><H0176> strong drink: <H7941>
5
Lest they drink, <H8354> and forget <H7911> the law, <H2710> and pervert <H8138> the judgment <H1779> of any of the afflicted. <H1121> <H6040>
6
Give <H5414> strong drink <H7941> unto him that is ready to perish, <H0006> and wine <H3196> unto those that be of heavy <H4751> hearts. <H5315>

Let him drink, <H8354> and forget <H7911> his poverty, <H7389> and remember <H2142> his misery <H5999> no more.
8
Open <H6605> thy mouth <H6310> for the dumb <H0483> in the cause <H1779> of all such as are appointed <H1121> to destruction. <H2475>
9
Open <H6605> thy mouth, <H6310> judge <H8199> righteously, <H6664> and plead <H1777> the cause of the poor <H6041> and needy. <H0034>
10
Who can find <H4672> a virtuous <H2428> woman? <H0802> for her price <H4377> [is] far <H7350> above rubies. <H6443>
11
The heart <H3820> of her husband <H1167> doth safely trust <H0982> in her, so that he shall have no need <H2637> of spoil. <H7998>
12
She will do <H1580> him good <H2896> and not evil <H7451> all the days <H3117> of her life. <H2416>
13
She seeketh <H1875> wool, <H6785> and flax, <H6593> and worketh <H6213> willingly <H2656> with her hands. <H3709>
14
She is like the merchants' <H5503> ships; <H0591> she bringeth <H0935> her food <H3899> from afar. <H4801>
15
She riseth <H6965> also while it is yet night, <H3915> and giveth <H5414> meat <H2964> to her household, <H1004> and a portion <H2706> to her maidens. <H5291>
16
She considereth <H2161> a field, <H7704> and buyeth <H3947> it: with the fruit <H6529> of her hands <H3709> she planteth <H5193> a vineyard. <H3754>
17
She girdeth <H2296> her loins <H4975> with strength, <H5797> and strengtheneth <H0553> her arms. <H2220>
18
She perceiveth <H2938> that her merchandise <H5504> [is] good: <H2896> her candle <H5216> goeth not out <H3518> by night. <H3915>
19
She layeth <H7971> her hands <H3027> to the spindle, <H3601> and her hands <H3709> hold <H8551> the distaff. <H6418>
20
She stretcheth <H6566> out her hand <H3709> to the poor; <H6041> yea, she reacheth forth <H7971> her hands <H3027> to the needy. <H0034>
21
She is not afraid <H3372> of the snow <H7950> for her household: <H1004> for all her household <H1004> [are] clothed <H3847> with scarlet. <H8144>
22
She maketh <H6213> herself coverings of tapestry; <H4765> her clothing <H3830> [is] silk <H8336> and purple. <H0713>
23
Her husband <H1167> is known <H3045> in the gates, <H8179> when he sitteth <H3427> among the elders <H2205> of the land. <H0776>
24
She maketh <H6213> fine linen, <H5466> and selleth <H4376> [it]; and delivereth <H5414> girdles <H2289> unto the merchant. <H3669>
25
Strength <H5797> and honour <H1926> [are] her clothing; <H3830> and she shall rejoice <H7832> in time <H3117> to come. <H0314>
26
She openeth <H6605> her mouth <H6310> with wisdom; <H2451> and in her tongue <H3956> [is] the law <H8451> of kindness. <H2617>
27
She looketh well <H6822> to the ways <H1979> <H1979> of her household, <H1004> and eateth <H0398> not the bread <H3899> of idleness. <H6104>
28
Her children <H1121> arise up, <H6965> and call her blessed; <H0833> her husband <H1167> [also], and he praiseth <H1984> her.
29
Many <H7227> daughters <H1323> have done <H6213> virtuously, <H2428> but thou excellest <H5927> them all.
30
Favour <H2580> [is] deceitful, <H8267> and beauty <H3308> [is] vain: <H1892> [but] a woman <H0802> [that] feareth <H3373> the LORD, <H3068> she shall be praised. <H1984>
31
Give <H5414> her of the fruit <H6529> of her hands; <H3027> and let her own works <H4639> praise <H1984> her in the gates. <H8179>
