1 Words of Lemuel, a king, a declaration that his mother taught him:
1 The words of King Lemuel—the revelation which his mother taught him:
2 “What, my son? And what, son of my womb? And what, son of my vows?
2 “Oh, my son! Oh, son of my womb! Oh, son of my vows!
3 Do not give your strength to women, || And your ways to wiping away of kings.
3 Don’t give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings.
4 [It is] not for kings, O Lemuel, || Not for kings, to drink wine, || And for princes—a desire of strong drink.
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 Lest he drink, and forget the decree, || And change the judgment of any of the sons of affliction.
5 lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted.
6 Give strong drink to the perishing, || And wine to the bitter in soul,
6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul.
7 He drinks, and forgets his poverty, || And he does not remember his misery again.
7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
8 Open your mouth for the mute, || For the right of all sons of change.
8 Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are left desolate.
9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, || Both the cause of the poor and needy!”
9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and serve justice to the poor and needy.”

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
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.
