In context
5or he will drink and forget what has been decreed and twist the justice due to all the afflicted. 6Give strong drink to the one who is perishing, and wine to those who are bitter in soul. 7Let him drink and forget his poverty and remember his trouble no more. 8Open your mouth for the mute, for the cause of all who are passing away. 9Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the cause of the poor and the needy.”
