Proverbs 31:3-5
Christian Standard Bible
3 Don’t spend your energy(A) on women
or your efforts on those who destroy kings.(B)
4 It is not for kings, Lemuel,
it is not for kings(C) to drink wine(D)
or for rulers to desire beer.
5 Otherwise, he will drink,
forget what is decreed,(E)
and pervert justice for all the oppressed.[a](F)
