Would have to agree. The liberalism of the Bible. Make it easy for Mother Ketchup and crew to understand.

NASB:

"Blessed are you, O land, whose king is of nobility and whose princes eat at the appropriate time--for strength and not for drunkenness."

Next thing you know we'll hear from the Gender-neutral version. I've always wondered how that version would translate Proverbs 21:9

Oh Good GRIEF

here is the NIV version.

Ecclesiastes 10: 17 Blessed are you, O land whose king is of noble birth and whose princes eat at a proper time- for strength and not for drunkenness.

This is the modern Message Version

Ecclesiastes 10 17Lucky the land whose king is mature, Where the princes behave themselves And don't drink themselves silly. [JC]
