Proverbs 31:10-31 How hard it is to find a capable wife! She is worth far more than jewels!
- Her husband puts his confidence in her, and he will never be poor.
- As long as she lives, she does him good and never harm.
- She keeps herself busy making wool and linen cloth.
- She brings home food from out-of-the-way places, as merchant ships do.
- She gets up before daylight to prepare food for her family and to tell her servant women what to do.
- She looks at land and buys it, and with money she has earned she plants a vineyard.
- She is a hard worker, strong and industrious.
- She knows the value of everything she makes, and works late into the night.
- She spins her own thread and weaves her own cloth.
- She is generous to the poor and needy.
- She doesn't worry when it snows, because her family has warm clothing.
- She makes bedspreads and wears clothes of fine purple linen.
- Her husband is well known, one of the leading citizens.
- She makes clothes and belts, and sells them to merchants.
- She is strong and respected and not afraid of the future.
- She speaks with a gentle wisdom.
- She is always busy and looks after her family's needs.
- Her children show their appreciation, and her husband praises her.
- He says, "Many women are good wives, but you are the best of them all."
- Charm is deceptive and beauty disappears, but a woman who honors the LORD should be praised.
- Give her credit for all she does. She deserves the respect of everyone.
