27. A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies.
Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm, all the
days of her life.
She selects wool and flax and works
with eager hands.
She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
She gets up while it is still dark; she
provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.
She considers a field and buys it; out
of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
She sets about her work vigorously; her
arms are strong for her tasks.
She sees that her trading is
profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.
In her hand she holds the distaff and
grasps the spindle with her fingers.
She opens her arms to the poor and
extends her hands to the needy.
When it snows, she has no fear for her
household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
She makes coverings for her bed; she is
clothed in fine linen and purple.
Her husband is respected at the city
gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
She makes linen garments and sells
them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.
She is clothed with strength and
dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
She speaks with wisdom, and faithful
instruction is on her tongue.
She watches over the affairs of her
household and does not eat the bread of idleness.
Her children arise and call her
blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:
"Many women do noble things, but
you surpass them all."
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is
fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.
Give her the reward she has earned, and
let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
Proverbs 31:10-31
