Who can find a virtuous woman?, for her price is far
above rubies.
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. ....
She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall
rejoice in time to come.
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue
is the law of kindness.
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband
also, and he praiseth her. ..
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised...
