1 These are the words of King Lemuel, an oracle, taught to him by his mother.
1 PALABRAS del rey Lemuel; la profecía con que le enseñó su madre.
1 The words of King Lemuel—the revelation which his mother taught him:
2 What shall I tell you, my son?—the son I gave birth to, the son given in response to my vows.
2 ¿Qué, hijo mío? ¿y qué, hijo de mi vientre? ¿y qué, hijo de mis deseos?
2 “Oh, my son! Oh, son of my womb! Oh, son of my vows!
3 Don't waste your strength sleeping with women, those that bring down kings.
3 No des á las mujeres tu fuerza, ni tus caminos á lo que es para destruir los reyes.
3 Don’t give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings.
4 Lemuel, kings shouldn't be drinking wine, rulers shouldn't be drinking alcohol.
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, nor for princes to say, ‘Where is strong drink?’
5 For if they drink, they'll forget what the law says, and pervert the rights of those who are suffering.
5 No sea que bebiendo olviden la ley, y perviertan el derecho de todos los hijos afligidos.
5 lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted.
6 Give alcohol to those who are dying, and wine to those who are in terrible distress.
6 Dad la cerveza al desfallecido, y el vino á los de amargo ánimo:
6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul.
7 Let them drink so they can forget their poverty, and not remember their troubles any longer.
7 Beban, y olvídense de su necesidad, y de su miseria no más se acuerden.
7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
8 Speak up for those who have no voice, for the rights of those marginalized by society.
8 Abre tu boca por el mudo, en el juicio de todos los hijos de muerte.
8 Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are left desolate.
9 Speak up and judge fairly; defend the poor and destitute.
9 Abre tu boca, juzga justicia, y el derecho del pobre y del menesteroso.
9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and serve justice to the poor and needy.”
10 Who can find a strong, capable wife? She's worth more than jewels!
10 Mujer fuerte, ¿quién la hallará? porque su estima sobrepuja largamente á [la de] piedras preciosas.
10 Who can find a worthy woman? For her value is far above rubies.
11 Her husband has complete confidence in her, and with her he'll never be poor.
11 El corazón de su marido está en ella confiado, y no tendrá necesidad de despojo.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her. He shall have no lack of gain.
12 She brings him good, not evil, all her life.
12 Darále ella bien y no mal, todos los días de su vida.

13 She gets wool and flax, and with her eager hands turns them into clothes.
13 Buscó lana y lino, y con voluntad labró de sus manos.

15 She rises also while it is yet night, gives food to her household, and portions for her servant girls.
16 She looks at a field, and decides to buy it; from the money she's earned she buys a vineyard.

17 Ciñó sus lomos de fortaleza, y esforzó sus brazos.
17 She arms her waist with strength, and makes her arms strong.

18 Gustó que era buena su granjería: su candela no se apagó de noche.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp doesn’t go out by night.
19 She spins the thread and weaves the cloth.
19 Aplicó sus manos al huso, y sus manos tomaron la rueca.

20 Alargó su mano al pobre, y extendió sus manos al menesteroso.
20 She opens her arms to the poor; yes, she extends her hands to the needy.
21 She doesn't worry if it snows, because her whole family has warm clothing.
21 No tendrá temor de la nieve por su familia, porque toda su familia está vestida de ropas dobles.
21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household, for all her household are clothed with scarlet.

24 She makes linen clothes for sale, and supplies merchants with belts.
24 Hizo telas, y vendió; y dió cintas al mercader.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and delivers sashes to the merchant.
25 She's clothed with strength and dignity, and she is happy about the future.
25 Fortaleza y honor son su vestidura; y en el día postrero reirá.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing. She laughs at the time to come.
26 She speaks wise words, and she's kind when she gives instructions.
26 Abrió su boca con sabiduría: y la ley de clemencia está en su lengua.

27 Considera los caminos de su casa, y no come el pan de balde.

28 Levantáronse sus hijos, y llamáronla bienaventurada; y su marido también la alabó.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her:
29 “Many women do great things, but you are better than all of them!”
29 Muchas mujeres hicieron el bien; mas tú las sobrepujaste á todas.
29 “Many women do noble things, but you excel them all.”
30 Charm can deceive, and beauty fades, but a woman who honors the Lord should be praised.
30 Engañosa es la gracia, y vana la hermosura: la mujer que teme á Jehová, ésa será alabada.
30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised.
31 Give her the recognition she deserves; praise her publicly for what she's done.
31 Dadle el fruto de sus manos, y alábenla en las puertas sus hechos.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands! Let her works praise her in the gates!

Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
And mercy is in His tongue, therefore mercifully teacheth He the law, as it is said regarding wisdom, "The law and mercy doth she carry in her tongue." Do not fear that thou art not able to fulfill the law, flee to mercy.
