1Manghai Lemuel kah olka olrhuh. He nen ni amah khaw a manu loh a toel.
1The words of King Lemuel—the revelation which his mother taught him:
2Ka ca me tlam lae? Ka bungko lamkah ka capa me tlam lae? Ka olcaeng dong lamkah ka capa me tlam lae?
2“Oh, my son! Oh, son of my womb! Oh, son of my vows!
3Na thadueng te huta pum dongah pae tarha boeh, na longpuei te manghai rhoek aka khoe ham ni te.
3Don’t give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings.
4Manghai Lemuel ham bueng moenih. Manghai rhoek loh misurtui a ok ham moenih. Boeica rhoek long khaw yu a tuep ham moenih.
4It is not for kings, Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor for princes to say, ‘Where is strong drink?’
5A ok tih a taem te a hnilh atah, phacip phabaem ca boeih kah dumlai te talh ve.
5lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted.
6Yu te aka milh taengah, misur te a hinglu aka khahing taengah pae uh.
6Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul.
7O saeh lamtah a khodaeng te hnilh saeh. A thakthaenah khaw koep poek boel saeh.
7Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
8Olmueh ham khaw, cadah cadum ca boeih kah dumlai ham khaw na ka te ong pah.
8Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are left desolate.
9Na ka te ong lamtah duengnah neh laitloek pah. Mangdaeng neh khodaeng te khaw tang sak lah.
9Open your mouth, judge righteously, and serve justice to the poor and needy.”
10Tatthai nu he unim aka hmu? Lungvang lakah a phu khaw kuel.

31Give her of the fruit of her hands! Let her works praise her in the gates!
