Proverbs 31:8-9

⁸Let your mouth be open for those who have no voice, in the cause of those who are ready for death.c

⁹Let your mouth be open, judging rightly, and give right decisions in the cause of the poor and those in need.d

Proverbs 31 closes the book with two distinct but connected portraits: the wise instruction of a mother to her royal son, and the famous poem about a capable wife. The chapter moves from the dangers of power (wine, women, injustice) to the beauty of faithful, productive wisdom em
