Proverbs 31:3
Berean Standard Bible
Do not spend your strength on women or your vigor on those who ruin kings.
Context
1These are the words of King Lemuel—the burden that his mother taught him: 2What shall I say,* O my son?
What, O son of my womb?
What, O son of my vows? 3Do not spend your strength on women
or your vigor on those who ruin kings. 4It is not for kings, O Lemuel,
it is not for kings to drink wine,
or for rulers to crave strong drink, 5lest they drink and forget what is decreed,
depriving all the oppressed of justice.
