Proverbs 31:19-24

19She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her 1hands grasp the spindle.20She 23extends her hand to the poor, And she stretches out her hands to the needy.21She is not afraid of the snow for her household, For all her household are 4clothed with scarlet.22She makes 5coverings for herself; Her clothing is 6fine linen and 7purple.23Her husband is known 8in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land.24She makes 9linen garments and sells them, And 10supplies belts to the 11tradesmen.
