New International Version NIV
1 PALABRAS del rey Lemuel; la profecía con que le enseñó su madre.
1
The sayings of King Lemuel—an inspired utterance his mother taught him.
2 ¿Qué, hijo mío? ¿y qué, hijo de mi vientre? ¿Y qué, hijo de mis deseos?
2
Listen, my son! Listen, son of my womb! Listen, my son, the answer to my prayers!
3 No des á las mujeres tu fuerza, Ni tus caminos á lo que es para destruir los reyes.
3
Do not spend your strength on women, your vigor on those who ruin kings.
4 No es de los reyes, oh Lemuel, no es de los reyes beber vino, Ni de los príncipes la cerveza.
4
It is not for kings, Lemuel— it is not for kings to drink wine, not for rulers to crave beer,
5 No sea que bebiendo olviden la ley, Y perviertan el derecho de todos los hijos afligidos.
5
lest they drink and forget what has been decreed, and deprive all the oppressed of their rights.
6 Dad la cerveza al desfallecido, Y el vino á los de amargo ánimo:
6
Let beer be for those who are perishing, wine for those who are in anguish!
7 Beban, y olvídense de su necesidad, Y de su miseria no más se acuerden.
7
Let them drink and forget their poverty and remember their misery no more.
8 Abre tu boca por el mudo, En el juicio de todos los hijos de muerte.
8
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.
9 Abre tu boca, juzga justicia, Y el derecho del pobre y del menesteroso.
9
Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy.
