1 PALABRAS del rey Lemuel; la profecía con que le enseñó su madre.

2 ¿Qué, hijo mío? ¿y qué, hijo de mi vientre? ¿y qué, hijo de mis deseos?

3 No des á las mujeres tu fuerza, ni tus caminos á lo que es para destruir los reyes.

4 No es de los reyes, oh Lemuel, no es de los reyes beber vino, ni de los príncipes la cerveza.

5 No sea que bebiendo olviden la ley, y perviertan el derecho de todos los hijos afligidos.
