The praise and properties of a good wife.10 ¶ Who² can findºª a virtuousº woman?º for her priceº [is] farº above rubies.º² 11 The heartº of her husbandº doth safely trustºª in her, so that he shall have no² needºª of spoil.º 12 She will doºª him goodº and not² evilº all² the daysº of her life.º 13 She seekethºª wool,º and flax,º and workethºª willinglyº with her hands.º 14 She is² like the merchants'ºª ships;º she bringethºª her foodº from afar.º² 15 She risethºª also while it is yet² night,º and givethºª meatº to her household,º and a portionº to her maidens.º 16 She considerethºª a field,º and buyethºª it: with the fruitº² of her handsº she plantethºª a vineyard.º 17 She girdethºª her loinsº with strength,º and strengthenethºª her arms.º 18 She perceivethºª that² her merchandiseº [is] good:º her candleº goeth not outºª² by night.º 19 She layethºª her handsº to the spindle,º and her handsº holdºª the distaff.º 20 She stretcheth outºª her handº to the poor;º yea, she reacheth forthºª her handsº to the needy.º 21 She is not² afraidºª of the snowº² for her household:º for² all² her householdº [are] clothedºª with scarlet.º 22 She makethºª herself coverings of tapestry;º her clothingº [is] silkº and purple.º 23 Her husbandº is knownºª in the gates,º when he sittethºª among² the eldersº of the land.º 24 She makethºª fine linen,º and sellethºª [it]; and deliverethºª girdlesº unto the merchant.º 25 Strengthº and honourº [are] her clothing;º and she shall rejoiceºª in timeº to come.º 26 She openethºª her mouthº with wisdom;º and in² her tongueº [is] the lawº of kindness.º 27 She looketh wellºª to the waysºª of her household,º and eatethºª not² the breadº of idleness.º 28 Her childrenº arise up,ºª and call her blessed;ºª her husbandº [also], and he praisethºª her. 29 Manyº daughtersº have doneºª virtuously,º but thou² excellestºª² them all.² 30 Favourº [is] deceitful,º and beautyº [is] vain:º [but] a womanº [that] fearethº the LORD,º she² shall be praised.ºª 31 Giveºª her of the fruitº² of her hands;º and let her own worksº praiseºª her in the gates.º [10] Ru 3:11; Pv 3:15; 8:11; 12:4; 18:22; 19:14; 20:15; Ec 7:28; So 6:8; Ep 5:25.
