10 Who finds a virtuous woman? yes, her price is far above pearls;
11 the heart of her master confides in her; he lacks no spoil;
12 she deals him good and not evil all the days of her life:
13 she seeks wool and flax and works her palms with delight;
14 she is as the ships of merchants; she brings her bread from afar;
15 she rises while it is yet night and gives the prey to her household and a statute to her lasses:
16 she is intrigued by a field and takes it; with the fruit of her palms she plants a vineyard;
17 she girds her loins with strength and strengthens her arms;
18 she tastes that her merchandise is good: her lamp goes not out by night;
19 she spreads her hands to the spindle and her palms uphold the spindle;
20 she spreads her palm to the humble; yes, she spreads her hands to the needy;
21 she awes not the snow for her household; for all her household are enrobed with scarlet:
22 she works herself spreads; her robe is fine linen and purple:
23 her master is known in the portals, when he settles among the elders of the land:
24 she works wraps and sells; and gives girdles to the Kenaaniy:
25 strength and majesty are her robe; and she laughs the day after:
26 she opens her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the torah of mercy:
27 she watches the ways of her household and eats not the bread of sloth:
28 her sons rise and call her blithesome; her master halals her:
29 many daughters work virtuously, you ascend them all.
30 Charism is false and beauty is vain; Halal the woman who awes Yah Veh!
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands. Her own works halal her in the portals!
