Proverbs 31:13-27
13She seeketh woolH6785 and flaxH6593, and worketh willingly with her handsH3709.
14She is like the merchant-ships; she bringeth herH935 foodH3899 from afarH4801.
15SheH6965 riseth also whileH5750 it is yet nightH3915, and giveth meat to herH5414 householdH1004, and their task to herH5414 maidensH5291.
16She considereth a fieldH7704, and buyeth it: with the fruitH6529 of herH3947 handsH3709 she planteth a vineyardH3754.
17She girdeth herH553 loinsH4975 with strengthH5797, and maketh strongH5797 herH553 armsH2220.
18SheH3588 perceiveth that herH3588 merchandiseH5504 is profitable: herH3588 lampH5216 goeth notH3808 out by nightH3915.
19She layeth herH7971 handsH3027 to the distaffH6418, and herH7971 handsH3027 holdH8551 the spindleH6418.
20She spreadeth outH7971 herH7971 handH3027 to the poorH6041; yea, she reacheth forthH7971 herH7971 handsH3027 to the needyH34.
21SheH3588 is notH3808 afraidH3372 of the snowH7950 for herH3605 householdH1004; for allH3605 herH3605 householdH1004 are clothedH3847 with scarletH8144.
22She maketh for herself carpets of tapestry; her clothingH3830 is fineH8336 linenH8336 and purpleH713.
23HerH3045 husbandH1167 is knownH3045 in the gatesH8179, when he sitteth among the eldersH2205 of the landH776.
24She maketh linenH5466 garmentsH5466 and selleth them; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
25StrengthH5797 and dignityH1926 are herH3117 clothingH3830; and she laugheth at the time to comeH314.
26She openeth herH5921 mouthH6310 with wisdomH2451; and the lawH8451 of kindnessH2617 is on herH5921 tongueH3956.
27SheH3808 looketh wellH6822 to the waysH1979 of herH398 householdH1004, and eateth notH3808 the breadH3899 of idlenessH6104.
