Proverbs 31:10-25

Great(i) 10 Who so fyndeth an honest faythfull woman, she is moch more worth then perles. 11 The hert of her husband maye safely trust in her, so that he shall fall in no pouertye. 12 She will do hym good and not euell, all the dayes of her lyfe. 13 She occupyeth woll and flaxe, & laboureth gladly with her handes. 14 She is lyke a marchauntes shyppe, that bryngeth her vytayles from a farre. 15 She is vp in the nyght season, to prouyde meate for her housholde, and fode for her maydens. 16 She consydreth lande, & byeth it, and with the frute of her handes she planteth a vyneyarde. 17 She gyrdeth her loynes with strength, & courageth her armes. 18 And yf the perceaue that her houswyferye doth good, her candle goeth not out by nyght. 19 She layeth her fyngers to the spyndell: and her hande taketh holde of the distaffe. 20 She openeth her hande to the poore, yee she stretcheth forth her handes to soche as haue nede. 21 She feareth not that the colde of wynter shall hurte her house, for all her housholde folkes are clothed with skarlett. 22 She maketh her selfe fayre ornamentes, her clothynge is whyte sylke & purple. 23 Her husband is moch set by in the gates, when he sytteth amonge the rulers of the land. 24 She maketh cloth of sylke and selleth it, & delyuereth gyrdles vnto the marchaunt. 25 Strength and honoure is her clothynge, & in the latter daye she shall reioyse.
