Ordspråkene 31,1

Ord av kong Lemuel, en inspirert beskjed hans mor ga ham:

2 Hvordan skal jeg tale til deg, min sønn? Hvordan skal jeg tale til deg, barn av mitt liv? Hvordan skal jeg tale til deg, barn av mine løfter?

3 Gi ikke din styrke til kvinner, heller ikke dine veier til dem som ødelegger konger.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
