- An excellent wife, who can find? For her worth is far above jewels.
- The heart of her husband trusts in her, And he will have no lack of gain.
- She does him good and not evil All the days of her life.
- She looks for wool and flax And works with her hands in delight.
- She is like merchant ships; She brings her food from afar.
|
- She rises also while it is still night And gives food to her household And portions to her maidens.
- She considers a field and buys it; From her earnings she plants a vineyard.
- She girds herself with strength And makes her arms strong.
- She senses that her gain is good; Her lamp does not go out at night.
- She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her hands grasp the spindle.
|
- She extends her hand to the poor, And she stretches out her hands to the needy.
- She is not afraid of the snow for her household, For all her household are clothed with scarlet.
- She makes coverings for herself; Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
- Her husband is known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land.
- She makes linen garments and sells them, And supplies belts to the tradesmen.
|
- Strength and dignity are her clothing, And she smiles at the future.
- She opens her mouth in wisdom, And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
- She looks well to the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.
- Her children rise up and bless her; Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
- "Many daughters have done nobly, But you excel them all."
|
- Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
- Give her the product of her hands, And let her works praise her in the gates.
