  21 H3372 [H8799] She is not afraid H7950 of the snow H1004 for her household: H1004 for all her household H3847 [H8803] are clothed H8144 with scarlet.
  22 H6213 [H8804] She maketh H4765 herself coverings of tapestry; H3830 her clothing H8336 is silk H713 and purple.

  25 H5797 Strength H1926 and honour H3830 are her clothing; H7832 [H8799] and she laugheth H314 at the latter H3117 day.

  27 H6822 [H8802] She looketh well H1979 H1979 [H8675] to the ways H1004 of her household, H398 [H8799] and eateth H3899 not the bread H6104 of idleness.
  28 H1121 Her sons H6965 [H8804] rise up, H833 [H8762] and call her blessed; H1167 her husband H1984 [H8762] also, and he praiseth her.
  29 H7227 Many H1323 daughters H6213 [H8804] have done H2428 virtuously, H5927 [H8804] but thou excellest them all.

Clementine_Vulgate(i) 1 Verba Lamuelis regis. Visio qua erudivit eum mater sua. 2 [Quid, dilecte mi? quid, dilecte uteri mei? quid, dilecte votorum meorum? 3 Ne dederis mulieribus substantiam tuam, et divitias tuas ad delendos reges. 4 Noli regibus, o Lamuel, noli regibus dare vinum, quia nullum secretum est ubi regnat ebrietas; 5 et ne forte bibant, et obliviscantur judiciorum, et mutent causam filiorum pauperis. 6 Date siceram mœrentibus, et vinum his qui amaro sunt animo. 7 Bibant, et obliviscantur egestatis suæ, et doloris sui non recordentur amplius. 8 Aperi os tuum muto, et causis omnium filiorum qui pertranseunt. 9 Aperi os tuum, decerne quod justum est, et judica inopem et pauperem.] 10 [Mulierem fortem quis inveniet? procul et de ultimis finibus pretium ejus. 11 Confidit in ea cor viri sui, et spoliis non indigebit. 12 Reddet ei bonum, et non malum, omnibus diebus vitæ suæ. 13 Quæsivit lanam et linum, et operata est consilia manuum suarum. 14 Facta est quasi navis institoris, de longe portans panem suum. 15 Et de nocte surrexit, deditque prædam domesticis suis, et cibaria ancillis suis. 16 Consideravit agrum, et emit eum; de fructu manuum suarum plantavit vineam. 17 Accinxit fortitudine lumbos suos, et roboravit brachium suum. 18 Gustavit, et vidit quia bona est negotiatio ejus; non extinguetur in nocte lucerna ejus. 19 Manum suam misit ad fortia, et digiti ejus apprehenderunt fusum. 20 Manum suam aperuit inopi, et palmas suas extendit ad pauperem. 21 Non timebit domui suæ a frigoribus nivis; omnes enim domestici ejus vestiti sunt duplicibus. 22 Stragulatam vestem fecit sibi; byssus et purpura indumentum ejus. 23 Nobilis in portis vir ejus, quando sederit cum senatoribus terræ. 24 Sindonem fecit, et vendidit, et cingulum tradidit Chananæo. 25 Fortitudo et decor indumentum ejus, et ridebit in die novissimo. 26 Os suum aperuit sapientiæ, et lex clementiæ in lingua ejus. 27 Consideravit semitas domus suæ, et panem otiosa non comedit. 28 Surrexerunt filii ejus, et beatissimam prædicaverunt; vir ejus, et laudavit eam. 29 Multæ filiæ congregaverunt divitias; tu supergressa es universas. 30 Fallax gratia, et vana est pulchritudo: mulier timens Dominum, ipsa laudabitur. 31 Date ei de fructu manuum suarum, et laudent eam in portis opera ejus.]
Wycliffe(i) 1 The wordis of Lamuel, the king; the visioun bi which his modir tauyte hym. 2 What my derlyng? what the derlyng of my wombe? what the derlyng of my desiris? 3 Yyue thou not thi catel to wymmen, and thi richessis to do awei kyngis. 4 A! Lamuel, nyle thou yiue wyn to kingis; for no pryuete is, where drunkenesse regneth. 5 Lest perauenture thei drynke, and foryete domes, and chaunge the cause of the sones of a pore man. 6 Yyue ye sidur to hem that morenen, and wyn to hem that ben of bitter soule. 7 Drinke thei, and foryete thei her nedinesse; and thenke thei no more on her sorewe. 8 Opene thi mouth for a doumb man, 9 and opene thi mouth for the causes of alle sones that passen forth. Deme thou that that is iust, and deme thou a nedi man and a pore man. 10 Who schal fynde a stronge womman? the prijs of her is fer, and fro the laste endis. 11 The herte of hir hosebond tristith in hir; and sche schal not haue nede to spuylis. 12 Sche schal yelde to hym good, and not yuel, in alle the daies of hir lijf. 13 Sche souyte wolle and flex; and wrouyte bi the counsel of hir hondis. 14 Sche is maad as the schip of a marchaunt, that berith his breed fro fer. 15 And sche roos bi nyyt, and yaf prey to hir meyneals, and metis to hir handmaidis. 16 Sche bihelde a feeld, and bouyte it; of the fruyt of hir hondis sche plauntide a vyner. 17 Sche girde hir leendis with strengthe, and made strong hir arm. 18 Sche taastide, and siy, that hir marchaundie was good; hir lanterne schal not be quenchid in the niyt. 19 Sche putte hir hondis to stronge thingis, and hir fyngris token the spyndil. 20 Sche openyde hir hond to a nedi man, and stretchide forth hir hondis to a pore man. 21 Sche schal not drede for hir hous of the cooldis of snow; for alle hir meyneals ben clothid with double clothis. 22 Sche made to hir a ray cloth; bijs and purpur is the cloth of hir. 23 Hir hosebonde is noble in the yatis, whanne he sittith with the senatours of erthe. 24 Sche made lynnun cloth, and selde; and yaf a girdil to a Chananei. 25 Strengthe and fairnesse is the clothing of hir; and sche schal leiye in the laste dai. 26 Sche openyde hir mouth to wisdom; and the lawe of merci is in hir tunge. 27 Sche bihelde the pathis of hir hous; and sche eet not breed idili. 28 Hir sones risiden, and prechiden hir moost blessid; hir hosebonde roos, and preiside hir. 29 Many douytris gaderiden richessis; thou passidist alle. 30 Fairnesse is disseiuable grace, and veyn; thilke womman, that dredith the Lord, schal be preisid. 31 Yyue ye to hir of the fruyt of hir hondis; and hir werkis preise hir in the yatis.

MSTC(i) 1 These are the words of king Lemuel, and the Prophecy that his mother taught him. 2 My son, thou son of my body: O my dear beloved son, 3 give not over thy substance and mind unto women, which are the destruction even of kings. 4 O Lemuel, give kings no wine, give kings and princes no strong drink; 5 Lest they being drunken forget the law, and regard not the cause of the poor, and of all such as be in adversity. 6 Give strong drink unto such as are condemned to death, and wine unto those that mourn: 7 that they may drink it, and forget their misery and adversity. 8 Be thou an advocate and stand in judgment thyself, to speak for all such as be dumb and sucourless. 9 With thy mouth defend the thing that is lawful and right, and the cause of the poor and helpless. 10 Whoso findeth a honest faithful woman, she is much more worth than pearls. 11 The heart of her husband may safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoils. 12 She rendereth him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She occupieth wool and flax, and laboureth gladly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchants' ship, that bringeth her victuals from afar. 15 She riseth ere day and giveth meat to her household, and food to her maidens. 16 She considereth land, and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. 17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and courageth her arms. 18 And if she perceiveth that her housewifery doth good, her candle goeth not out by night. 19 She layeth her fingers to the spindle, and her hand taketh hold of the rock. 20 She openeth her hand to the poor, yea she stretcheth forth her hands to such as have need 21 She feareth not that the cold of winter shall hurt her house, for all her household folks are double clothed. 22 She maketh herself fair ornaments; her clothing is white silk and purple. 23 Her husband is much set by in the gates, when he sitteth among the rulers of the land. 24 She maketh cloth of silk and selleth it, and delivereth a girdle unto the merchant. 25 Strength and honour is her clothing, and in the latter day she shall rejoice. 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of grace. 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not her bread with idleness. 28 Her children arise, and call her blessed: and her husband maketh much of her. 29 Many daughters there be that gather riches together, but thou goest above them all. 30 Favour is a deceitful thing, and beauty is vanity; but a woman that feareth God, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.

DouayRheims(i) 1 The words of king Lamuel. The vision wherewith his mother instructed him. 2 What, O my beloved, what, O the beloved of my womb, what, O the beloved of my vows? 3 Give not thy substance to women, and thy riches to destroy kings. 4 Give not to kings, O Lamuel, give not wine to kings: because there is no secret where drunkenness reigneth: 5 And lest they drink and forget judgments, and pervert the cause of the children of the poor. 6 Give strong drink to them that are sad; and wine to them that are grieved in mind: 7 Let them drink, and forget their want, and remember their sorrow no more. 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, and for the causes of all the children that pass. 9 Open thy mouth, decree that which is just, and do justice to the needy and poor. 10 Who shall find a valiant woman? far, and from the uttermost coasts is the price of her. 11 The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no need of spoils. 12 She will render him good, and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She hath sought wool and flax, and hath wrought by the counsel of her hands. 14 She is like the merchant's ship, she bringeth her bread from afar. 15 And she hath risen in the night, and given a prey to her household, and victuals to her maidens. 16 She hath considered a field, and bought it: with the fruit of her hands she hath planted a vineyard. 17 She hath girded her loins with strength, and hath strengthened her arm. 18 She hath tasted, and seen that her traffic is good: her lamp shall not be put out in the night. 19 She hath put out her hand to strong things, and her fingers have taken hold of the spindle. 20 She hath opened her hand to the needy, and stretched out her hands to the poor. 21 She shall not fear for her house in the cold of snow: for all her domestics are clothed with double garments. 22 She hath made for herself clothing of tapestry: fine linen, and purple, is her covering. 23 Her husband is honourable in the gates, when he sitteth among the senators of the land. 24 She made fine linen, and sold it, and delivered a girdle to the Chanaanite. 25 Strength and beauty are her clothing, and she shall laugh in the latter day. 26 She hath opened her mouth to wisdom, and the law of clemency is on her tongue. 27 She hath looked well on the paths of her house, and hath not eaten her bread idle. 28 Her children rose up, and called her blessed: her husband, and he praised her. 29 Many daughters have gathered together riches: thou hast surpassed them all. 30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: the woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands: and let her works praise her in the gates.

Thomson(i) 1 These words of mine have been dictated by God, they are the prophecy of a king whom his mother instructed 2 What wilt thou keep my son? What! keep the dictates of God. One right of primogeniture I tell thee, my son. What is it thou son of my womb? What is it thou son of my vows? 3 Give not thy wealth to women; nor thine understanding and thy life for that which will bring sorrow. Do all things with counsel. Drink wine with counsel. 4 Princes are passionate, therefore let them not drink wine, 5 lest by drinking they forget wisdom, and become incapable of administering justice to the oppressed. 6 Give strong drink to those in trouble, and wine to be drunk by them who are in sorrow; 7 that they may forget their distress and no more remember their troubles. 8 Open thy mouth with the word of God, and administer justice to all with a sound understanding. 9 Open thy mouth and judge righteously, and plead the cause of the weak and needy. 10 Who can find a virtuous woman? Such a one is indeed more valuable than precious stones. 11 The heart of her husband trusteth in her: such a one hath no need of spoils: 12 for she laboureth for her husband's good all her life long. 13 Having spun wool and flax she made a useful work with her hands. 14 She was like a merchant vessel which bringeth riches from afar: 15 She arose by night and gave food to her household and work to her maids. 16 Having viewed a field she bought it, and with the fruits of her hands planted the purchase. 17 Having girded herself tight about the waist, she strengthened her arms for work. 18 And finding that it was good to work, her lamp is not extinguished the whole night. 19 Her elbows she extendeth over the spindle; and her hands she keepeth at the distaff. 20 But she opened her hand to the needy; and stretched out her handful to the distressed. 21 Her husband when long abroad is not concerned for those at home: for all with her are well clothed. 22 She made for her husband double garments; and for herself robes of cotton and purple. 23 And her husband is distinguished in the gates; when he sitteth in council with the elders of the land. 24 She made sindons and sold girdles to the Chananites. She opened her mouth sparingly and with propriety; and had her tongue in due subjection. 25 She clothed herself with majesty and excellence, and enjoyed delights in her latter days. 26 The gates of her house were kept close shut; and she eateth not the bread of idleness. 27 She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and maxims of prudence. 28 Her bounty caused her children to honour her; for they were rich, and her husband praised her. 29 Many daughters have possessed wealth, many have acted virtuously: but thou hast surpassed: thou hast excelled all. 30 False are allurements, and vain the beauty of a wife. For a woman of understanding is blessed. Let her therefore praise the fear of the Lord. 31 Give her of the fruits of her hands; and let her husband be praised in the gates.

Brenton(i) 1 My words have been spoken by God — the oracular answer of a king, whom his mother instructed. 2 What wilt thou keep, my son, what? the words of God. My firstborn son, I speak to thee: what? son of my womb? what? son of my vows? 3 Give not thy wealth to women, nor thy mind and living to remorse. Do all things with counsel: drink wine with counsel. 4 Princes are prone to anger: let them then not drink wine: 5 lest they drink, and forget wisdom, and be not able to judge the poor rightly. 6 Give strong drink to those that are in sorrow, and the wine to drink to those in pain: 7 that they may forget their poverty, and may not remember their troubles any more. 8 Open thy mouth with the word of God, and judge all fairly. 9 Open thy mouth and judge justly, and plead the cause of the poor and weak. 10 Who shall find a virtuous woman? for such a one is more valuable than precious stones. 11 The heart of her husband trusts in her: such a one shall stand in no need of fine spoils. 12 For she employs all her living for her husband's good. 13 Gathering wool and flax, she makes it serviceable with her hands. 14 She is like a ship trading from a distance: so she procures her livelihood. 15 And she rises by night, and gives food to her household, and appointed tasks to her maidens. 16 She views a farm, and buys it: and with the fruit of her hands she plants and a possession. 17 She strongly girds her loins, and strengthens her arms for work. 18 And she finds by experience that working is good; and her candle goes not out all night. 19 She reaches forth her arms to needful works, and applies her hands to the spindle. 20 And she opens her hands to the needy, and reaches out fruit to the poor. 21 Her husband is not anxious about those at home when he tarries anywhere abroad: for all her household are clothed. 22 She makes for her husband clothes of double texture, and garments for herself of fine linen and scarlet. 23 And her husband becomes a distinguished person in the gates, when he sits in council with the old inhabitants of the land. 24 She makes fine linens, and sells girdles to the Chananites: she opens her mouth heedfully and with propriety, and controls her tongue. 25 She puts on strength and honour; and rejoices in the last days. 26 But she opens her mouth wisely, and according to law. 27 The ways of her household are careful, and she eats not the bread of idleness. 28 And her kindness to them sets up her children for them, and they grow rich, and her husband praises her. 29 Many daughters have obtained wealth, many have wrought valiantly; but thou hast exceeded, thou hast surpassed all. 30 Charms are false, and woman's beauty is vain: for it is a wise woman that is blessed, and let her praise the fear the Lord. 31 Give her of the fruit of her lips; and let her husband be praised in the gates.
Brenton_Greek(i) 1 Οἱ ἐμοὶ λόγοι εἴρηνται ὑπὸ Θεοῦ, βασιλέως χρηματισμός, ὃν ἐπαίδευσεν ἡ μήτηρ αὐτοῦ.
2 Τί τέκνον τηρήσεις; τί; ῥήσεις Θεοῦ· πρωτογενές σοὶ λέγω υἱέ· τί τέκνον ἐμῆς κοιλίας; τί τέκνον ἐμῶν εὐχῶν; 3 Μὴ δῷς γυναιξὶ σὸν πλοῦτον, καὶ τὸν σὸν νοῦν καὶ βίον εἰς ὑστεροβουλίαν· 4 μετὰ βουλῆς πάντα ποίει, μετὰ βουλῆς οἰνοπότει. Οἱ δυνάσται θυμώδεις εἰσὶν, οἶνον δὲ μὴ πινέτωσαν, 5 ἵνα μὴ πιόντες ἐπιλάθωνται τῆς σοφίας, καὶ ὀρθὰ κρῖναι οὐ μὴ δύνωνται τοὺς ἀσθενεῖς. 6 Δίδοτε μέθην τοῖς ἐν λύπαις, καὶ οἶνον πίνειν τοῖς ἐν ὀδύναις, 7 ἵνα ἐπιλάθωνται τῆς πενίας, καὶ τῶν πόνων μὴ μνησθῶσιν ἔτι. 8 Ἄνοιγε σὸν στόμα λόγῳ Θεοῦ, καὶ κρῖνε πάντας ὑγιῶς. 9 Ἄνοιγε σὸν στόμα καὶ κρῖνε δικαίως, διάκρινε δὲ πένητα καὶ ἀσθενῆ.
10 Γυναῖκα ἀνδρείαν τίς εὑρήσει; τιμιωτέρα δέ ἐστι λίθων πολυτελῶν ἡ τοιαύτη. 11 Θάρσει ἐπʼ αὐτῇ ἡ καρδία τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς· ἡ τοιαύτη καλῶν σκύλων οὐκ ἀπορήσει· 12 Ἐνεργεῖ γὰρ τῷ ἀνδρὶ εἰς ἀγαθὰ πάντα τὸν βίον. 13 Μηρυομένη ἔρια καὶ λινὸν, ἐποίησεν εὔχρηστον ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῆς. 14 Ἐγένετο ὡσεὶ ναῦς ἐμπορευομένη μακρόθεν, συνάγει δὲ αὐτῆς τὸν πλοῦτον. 15 Καὶ ἀνίσταται ἐκ νυκτῶν, καὶ ἔδωκε βρώματα τῷ οἴκῳ, καὶ ἔργα ταῖς θεραπαίναις. 16 Θεωρήσασα γεώργιον ἐπρίατο, ἀπὸ δὲ καρπῶν χειρῶν αὐτῆς κατεφύτευσε κτῆμα. 17 Ἀναζωσαμένη ἰσχυρῶς τὴν ὀσφὺν αὐτῆς ἤρεισε τοὺς βραχίονας αὐτῆς εἰς ἔργον. 18 Καὶ ἐγεύσατο ὅτι καλόν ἐστι τὸ ἐργάζεσθαι, καὶ οὐκ ἀποσβέννυται ὁ λύχνος αὐτῆς ὅλην τὴν νύκτα. 19 Τοὺς πήχεις αὐτῆς ἐκτείνει ἐπὶ τὰ συμφέροντα, τὰς δὲ χεῖρας αὐτῆς ἐρείδει εἰς ἄτρακτον. 20 Χεῖρας δὲ αὐτῆς διήνοιξε πένητι, καρπὸν δὲ ἐξέτεινε πτωχῷ.
21 Οὐ φροντίζει τῶν ἐν οἴκῳ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ὅταν που χρονίζῃ, πάντες γὰρ οἱ παρʼ αὐτῆς ἐνδεδυμένοι εἰσί. 22 Δισσὰς χλαίνας ἐποίησε τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς, ἐκ δὲ βύσσου καὶ πορφύρας ἑαυτῇ ἐνδύματα. 23 Περίβλεπτος δὲ γίνεται ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ἐν πύλαις, ἡνίκα ἂν καθίση ἐν συνεδρίῳ μετὰ τῶν γερόντων κατοίκων τῆς γῆς. 24 Σινδόνας ἐποίησε καὶ ἀπέδοτο περιζώματα τοῖς Χαναναίοις· στόμα αὐτῆς διήνοιξε προσεχόντως καὶ ἐννόμως, καὶ τάξιν ἐστείλατο τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτῆς. 25 Ἰσχὺν καὶ εὐπρέπειαν ἐνεδύσατο, καὶ εὐφράνθη ἐν ἡμέραις ἐσχάταις. 26 27 Στεγναὶ διατριβαὶ οἴκων αὐτῆς, σῖτα δὲ ὀκνηρὰ οὐκ ἔφαγε. 27 26 Τὸ στόμα δὲ ἀνοίγει σοφῶς καὶ νομοθέσμως. 28 Ἡ δὲ ἐλεημοσύνη αὐτῆς ἀνέστησε τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπλούτησαν, καὶ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ᾔνεσεν αὐτήν. 29 Πολλαὶ θυγατέρες ἐκτήσαντο πλοῦτον, πολλαὶ ἐποίησαν δύναμιν· σὺ δὲ ὑπέρκεισαι, καὶ ὑπερῇρας πάσας. 30 Ψευδεῖς ἀρέσκειαι, καὶ μάταιον κάλλος γυναικός· γυνὴ γὰρ συνετὴ εὐλογεῖται, φόβον δὲ Κυρίου αὕτη αἰνείτω. 31 Δότε αὐτῇ ἀπὸ καρπῶν χειλέων αὐτῆς, καὶ αἰνείσθω ἐν πύλαις ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς.
Leeser(i) 1 The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy with which his mother instructed him. 2 What hast thou done, O my son: and what, O son of my body? and what, O son of my vows? 3 Give not unto women thy vigor, nor thy ways to those that ruin kings. 4 Not for kings, O Lemoel, not for kings it is fitting to drink wine, nor for princes, strong drink: 5 Lest either might drink, and forget what is written in the law, and pervert the cause of all the afflicted. 6 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those who have an embittered soul. 7 Let such a one drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his trouble no more. 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, for the cause of all fatherless children. 9 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and decide the cause of the poor and needy. 10 Who can find a virtuous woman: for far above pearls is her value. 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, and he will not see his gain diminish. 12 She treateth him well and not ill, all the days of her life. 13 She seeketh for wool and flax, and worketh with her willing hands. 14 She is become like the merchant’s ships: from afar doth she bring her food. 15 And she riseth while it is yet night, and giveth provision to her household, and a task to her maidens. 16 She thinketh of a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. 17 She girdeth with strength her loins, and giveth vigor to her arms. 18 She perceiveth that her profit is good: therefore her lamp goeth not out by night. 19 She stretcheth out her hands to the spindle, and her palms hold fast the distaff. 20 She spreadeth out wide her open palm to the poor: yea, her hands she stretcheth forth to the needy. 21 She hath no fear for her household of the snow: for all her household are clothed in scarlet. 22 Tapestry-covering she maketh for herself: of linen and purple is her attire. 23 Well known is in the gates her husband, when he sitteth with the elders of the land. 24 Fine tunics she maketh, and selleth them, and girdles she furnisheth unto the merchant. 25 Strength and dignity are her clothing: and she smileth at the coming of the last day. 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and the law of kindness is on her tongue. 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and the bread of idleness she doth not eat. 28 Her children rise up, and call her blessed; her husband, also, and he praiseth her: 29 “Many daughters have done virtuously; but thou excellest them all.” 30 False is grace, and vain is beauty: a woman only that feareth the Lord shall indeed be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.
YLT(i) 1 Words of Lemuel a king, a declaration that his mother taught him: 2 `What, my son? and what, son of my womb? And what, son of my vows? 3 Give not to women thy strength, And thy ways to wiping away of kings. 4 Not for kings, O Lemuel, Not for kings, to drink wine, And for princes a desire of strong drink. 5 Lest he drink, and forget the decree, And change the judgment of any of the sons of affliction. 6 Give strong drink to the perishing, And wine to the bitter in soul, 7 He drinketh, and forgetteth his poverty, And his misery he remembereth not again. 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, For the right of all sons of change. 9 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, Both the cause of the poor and needy!'
10 A woman of worth who doth find? Yea, far above rubies is her price. 11 The heart of her husband hath trusted in her, And spoil he lacketh not. 12 She hath done him good, and not evil, All days of her life. 13 She hath sought wool and flax, And with delight she worketh with her hands. 14 She hath been as ships of the merchant, From afar she bringeth in her bread. 15 Yea, she riseth while yet night, And giveth food to her household, And a portion to her damsels. 16 She hath considered a field, and taketh it, From the fruit of her hands she hath planted a vineyard. 17 She hath girded with might her loins, And doth strengthen her arms. 18 She hath perceived when her merchandise is good, Her lamp is not extinguished in the night. 19 Her hands she hath sent forth on a spindle, And her hands have held a distaff. 20 Her hand she hath spread forth to the poor, Yea, her hands she sent forth to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of her household from snow, For all her household are clothed with scarlet. 22 Ornamental coverings she hath made for herself, Silk and purple are her clothing. 23 Known in the gates is her husband, In his sitting with elders of the land. 24 Linen garments she hath made, and selleth, And a girdle she hath given to the merchant. 25 Strength and honour are her clothing, And she rejoiceth at a latter day. 26 Her mouth she hath opened in wisdom, And the law of kindness is on her tongue. 27 She is watching the ways of her household, And bread of sloth she eateth not. 28 Her sons have risen up, and pronounce her happy, Her husband, and he praiseth her, 29 `Many are the daughters who have done worthily, Thou hast gone up above them all.' 30 The grace is false, and the beauty is vain, A woman fearing Jehovah, she may boast herself. 31 Give ye to her of the fruit of her hands, And her works do praise her in the gates!
JuliaSmith(i) 1 The words of Lemuel the king, the lifting up which his mother will instruct him. 2 What, my son? and what the son of my womb? and what the son of my vows? 3 Thou shalt not give thy strength to women, and thy ways to the destroying of kings. 4 Not for kings, O Lemuel, not for kings to drink and for princes the desire of strong drink: 5 Lest he shall drink and forget what is prescribed, and change the judgment of all the sons of affliction. 6 Ye shall give strong drink to him perishing, and wine to the bitter of soul 7 He shall drink and forget his poverty, and shall no more remember his toil. 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, for the judgment of all the sons of the surviving. 9 Open thy mouth; judge justly, and contend for the poor and needy. 10 Who shall find a woman of virtue? for her price is far above pearls. 11 The heart of her husband trusted in her, and he shall not want spoil. 12 She rewarded him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She sought wool and flax, and she will work in delight with her hands. 14 She was as the ships of the merchant; from far off she will bring her bread. 15 She will rise while yet night, and she will give food to her house, and a portion to her girls. 16 She purposed a field, and he will take it: from the fruit of her hands she planted a vineyard. 17 She girded her loins with strength, and she will strengthen her arms. 18 She tasted that her traffic is good: her light will not go out by night 19 She sent forth her hands upon the spindle, and her hands take hold of the whirl. 20 She spread forth her hands to the poor, and sent forth her hands to the needy. 21 She will not fear for her house from snow, for all her house put on double. 22 She made for herself coverings; byssus and purple her clothing. 23 Her husband was known in the gates, in his sitting with the old men of the land. 24 She made the under garment., and she will sell; and she gave a girdle to the Canaanite. 25 Strength and ornament her clothing; and she will laugh to the last day. 26 She opened her mouth in wisdom, and the law of mercy upon her tongue. 27 She viewed the goings of her house, and the bread of sloth she will not eat 28 Her sons rose up and they will call her happy; her husband, and he will praise her. 29 Many daughters did virtue, and thou wentest up over all of them. 30 Favor a falsehood, and beauty vanity: a woman fearing Jehovah, she shall be praised. 31 Ye shall give her from the fruit of her hands, and her works shall praise her in the gates.

JPS_ASV_Byz(i) 1 The words of king Lemuel; the burden wherewith his mother corrected him. 2 What, my son? and what, O son of my womb? and what, O son of my vows? 3 Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine: nor for princes to say: 'Where is strong drink?' 5 Lest they drink, and forget that which is decreed, and pervert the justice due to any that is afflicted. 6 Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto the bitter in soul; 7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more. 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction. 9 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy. 10 A woman of valour who can find? for her price is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, and he hath no lack of gain. 12 She doeth him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She seeketh wool and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchant-ships; she bringeth her food from afar. 15 She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household, and a portion to her maidens. 16 She considereth a field, and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. 17 She girdeth her loins with strength, and maketh strong her arms. 18 She perceiveth that her merchandise is good; her lamp goeth not out by night. 19 She layeth her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle. 20 She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household are clothed with scarlet. 22 She maketh for herself coverlets; her clothing is fine linen and purple. 23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land. 24 She maketh linen garments and selleth them; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant. 25 Strength and dignity are her clothing; and she laugheth at the time to come. 26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and the law of kindness is on her tongue. 27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness. 28 Her children rise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her: 29 'Many daughters have done valiantly, but thou excellest them all.' 30 Grace is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her works praise her in the gates.
Rotherham(i) 1 The words of Lemuel the king,––the strain which was taught him by his mother:–– 2 What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? aye what, the son of my vows? 3 Do not give, to women, thy strength, nor thy ways, to them who ruin kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor, for dignitaries, to desire strong drink, 5 Lest he drink, and forget that which is decreed, and alter the plea of any who are sorely oppressed. 6 Give strong drink, to him that is perishing, and wine, to such as are embittered in soul: 7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and, his wearying toil, let him remember no more. 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, for the cause of all the children of the departed. 9 Open thy mouth––judge righteously,––and administer justice for the poor and the needy.
10 A virtuous woman, who can find? for, far beyond corals, is her worth. 11 The heart of her husband, trusteth her, and, gain, he shall not lack: 12 She doeth him good and not evil, all the days of her life: 13 She seeketh wool and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands: 14 She is like the ships of the merchant, from afar, she bringeth in her food; 15 And she riseth, while yet it is night, and giveth food to her household, and a task to her maidens: 16 She considereth a field, and procureth it, Out of the fruit of her hands, she planteth a vineyard: 17 She girdeth, with strength her loins, and putteth vigour into her arms: 18 She tasteth, whether, good, be her merchandise, and her lamp, goeth not out by night: 19 Her hands, she putteth forth to the distaff, and, her palms, lay hold of the spindle: 20 Her palm, she spreadeth out to the oppressed, and, her hands, she extendeth to the needy: 21 She feareth not, for her household, because of the snow, for, all her household, are clothed with crimson: 22 Coverlets, she maketh for herself, Of white linen and of purple, is her clothing: 23 Known in the gates, is her husband, when he sitteth, with the elders of the land: 24 Fine linen wraps, she maketh and selleth, and, girdles, doth she deliver to the trader: 25 Strength and dignity, are her clothing, and she laugheth at the time to come: 26 Her mouth, she openeth with wisdom, and, the instruction of kindness, is on her tongue: 27 She looketh well to the goings of her household, and, the bread of idleness, will she not eat. 28 Her children rise up, and call her happy! her husband, and he praiseth her:–– 29 Many daughters, have done virtuously, but, thou, excellest them all! 30 Deceitful is loveliness and vain is beauty, The woman that revereth Yahweh, she, shall be praised: 31 Give her of the fruit of her own hands, and let her own works, praise her in the gates.
CLV(i) 1 The words of Lemuel, a king:The oracle with which his mother admonished him:" 2 What, my son, and what, son of my belly! What, son of my vows!" 3 Do not give your potency to women, And your ways to those who wipe out kings." 4 It must not be for kings, O Lemuel, It must not be for kings to drink wine, Or for chancellors to yearn for intoxicant, 5 Lest such a one should drink and forget the statute, And alter the adjudication of all the sons of humiliation." 6 Give intoxicant to him who is perishing, And wine to those bitter of soul." 7 Let him drink and forget his destitution, And let him remember his misery no further." 8 Open your mouth for the mute, For the adjudication of all the sons of insecurity;" 9 Open your mouth; judge righteously; And adjudicate the humble and needy one. 10 A wife of ability, who can find? Far more than rubies is her worth." 11 Her spouse's heart understanding puts trust in her, So that he lacks no proceeds." 12 She requites him with good and not evil All the days of her life. 13 She seeks after wool and flax And works them according to the delight of her palms. 14 She is like the ships of a merchant; She brings her bread from afar. 15 She rises while it is still night And provides viands for her household And dole for her maidens. 16 She plans for a field and procures it; From the fruit of her palms she plants a vineyard. 17 She girds her waist with strength, And she makes her arms resolute." 18 She inspects to see that her merchandise is good; Her lamp is not quenched at night. 19 She puts forth her hands on the distaff, And her palms hold firm to the spindle." 20 She spreads out her palm to the humble And puts forth her hands to the needy. 21 She does not fear the snow for her household, For all in her household are clothed with double garments." 22 She makes decorative covers for herself; Her clothing is cambric and purple. 23 Her spouse is acknowledged in the gateways, When he sits with the elders of the land." 24 She makes shirts and sells them, And she produces girdles for the trafficker." 25 Strength and honor are her clothing, And she can make sport of the days hereafter." 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, And the law of benignity is on her tongue." 27 She watches over the affairs of her household And does not eat the bread of slothfulness. 28 Her sons arise and call her happy; Her spouse also praises her, saying:" 29 Many daughters do ably, Yet you ascend over them all." 30 Grace may be false and loveliness vain, But the woman fearful of Yahweh, she shall be praised." 31 Give honor to her for the fruit of her hands, And let them praise her in the gateways for her deeds."
BBE(i) 1 The words of Lemuel, king of Massa: the teaching which he had from his mother. 2 What am I to say to you, O Lemuel, my oldest son? and what, O son of my body? and what, O son of my oaths? 3 Do not give your strength to women, or your ways to that which is the destruction of kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to take wine, or for rulers to say, Where is strong drink? 5 For fear that through drinking they may come to have no respect for the law, wrongly judging the cause of those who are in trouble. 6 Give strong drink to him who is near to destruction, and wine to him whose soul is bitter: 7 Let him have drink, and his need will go from his mind, and the memory of his trouble will be gone. 8 Let your mouth be open for those who have no voice, in the cause of those who are ready for death. 9 Let your mouth be open, judging rightly, and give right decisions in the cause of the poor and those in need. 10 Who may make discovery of a woman of virtue? For her price is much higher than jewels. 11 The heart of her husband has faith in her, and he will have profit in full measure. 12 She does him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She gets wool and linen, working at the business of her hands. 14 She is like the trading-ships, getting food from far away. 15 She gets up while it is still night, and gives meat to her family, and their food to her servant-girls. 16 After looking at a field with care, she gets it for a price, planting a vine-garden with the profit of her work. 17 She puts a band of strength round her, and makes her arms strong. 18 She sees that her marketing is of profit to her: her light does not go out by night. 19 She puts her hands to the cloth-working rod, and her fingers take the wheel. 20 Her hands are stretched out to the poor; yes, she is open-handed to those who are in need. 21 She has no fear of the snow for her family, for all those in her house are clothed in red. 22 She makes for herself cushions of needlework; her clothing is fair linen and purple. 23 Her husband is a man of note in the public place, when he takes his seat among the responsible men of the land. 24 She makes linen robes and gets a price for them, and traders take her cloth bands for a price. 25 Strength and self-respect are her clothing; she is facing the future with a smile. 26 Her mouth is open to give out wisdom, and the law of mercy is on her tongue. 27 She gives attention to the ways of her family, she does not take her food without working for it. 28 Her children get up and give her honour, and her husband gives her praise, saying, 29 Unnumbered women have done well, but you are better than all of them. 30 Fair looks are a deceit, and a beautiful form is of no value; but a woman who has the fear of the Lord is to be praised. 31 Give her credit for what her hands have made: let her be praised by her works in the public place.

For her value is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband trusts safely in her, so that he shall have no need of plunder. 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She seeks wool and flax, and works willingly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchants' ships; she brings her food from afar. 15 She also rises while it is still night, and gives food to her household, and a share to her young women. 16 She considers a field, and buys it; with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard. 17 She binds her loins with strength, and makes her arms strong. 18 She sees that her merchandise is good; her lamp does not go out by night. 19 She lays her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff. 20 She stretches out her hand to the poor; yea, she reaches forth her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household are clothed with scarlet. 22 She makes herself coverings; her clothing is silk and purple. 23 Her husband is known in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land. 24 She makes fine linen and sells it, and delivers girdles to the merchants. 25 Strength and honor are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 27 She looks well to the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. 28 Her sons rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. 29 Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all. 30 Favor is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears Jehovah, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

With the fruit of her hands, she plants a vineyard. 17 She girds her waist with strength, and makes her arms strong. 18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp doesn't go out by night. 19 She lays her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle. 20 She opens her arms to the poor; yes, she extends her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household are clothed with scarlet. 22 She makes for herself carpets of tapestry. Her clothing is fine linen and purple. 23 Her husband is respected in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land. 24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and delivers sashes to the merchant. 25 Strength and dignity are her clothing. She laughs at the time to come. 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom. Faithful instruction is on her tongue. 27 She looks well to the ways of her household, and doesn't eat the bread of idleness. 28 Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her: 29 "Many women do noble things, but you excel them all." 30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands. Let her works praise her in the gates.

CAB(i) 1 My words have been spoken by God — the oracular answer of a king, whom his mother instructed. 2 What will you keep, my son, what? The words of God? My firstborn son, I speak to you: what? Son of my womb? What? Son of my vows? 3 Give not your wealth to women, nor your mind and living to remorse. Do all things with counsel: drink wine with counsel. 4 Princes are prone to anger: let them then not drink wine: 5 lest they drink, and forget wisdom, and not be able to judge the poor rightly. 6 Give strong drink to those that are in sorrow, and the wine to drink to those in pain, 7 that they may forget their poverty, and may not remember their troubles anymore. 8 Open your mouth with the word of God, and judge all fairly. 9 Open your mouth and judge justly, and plead the cause of the poor and weak. 10 Who shall find a virtuous woman? For such a one is more valuable than precious stones. 11 The heart of her husband trusts in her; such a one shall stand in no need of fine spoils. 12 For she employs all her living for her husband's good. 13 Gathering wool and flax, she makes it serviceable with her hands. 14 She is like a ship trading from a distance — so she procures her livelihood. 15 And she rises by night, and gives food to her household, and appointed tasks to her maidens. 16 She views a farm, and buys it; and with the fruit of her hands she plants and a possession. 17 She strongly girds her loins, and strengthens her arms for work. 18 And she finds by experience that working is good, and her lamp does not go out all night. 19 She reaches forth her arms to needful works, and applies her hands to the spindle. 20 And she opens her hands to the needy, and reaches out fruit to the poor. 21 Her husband is not anxious about those at home when he tarries anywhere abroad: for all her household are clothed. 22 She makes for her husband clothes of double texture, and garments for herself of fine linen and scarlet. 23 And her husband becomes a distinguished person in the gates, when he sits in council with the old inhabitants of the land. 24 She makes fine linens, and sells sashes to the Canaanites; she opens her mouth heedfully and with propriety, and controls her tongue. 25 She puts on strength and honor, and rejoices in the last days. 26 But she opens her mouth wisely, and according to law. 27 The ways of her household are careful, and she eats not the bread of idleness. 28 And her kindness to them sets up her children for them, and they grow rich, and her husband praises her. 29 Many daughters have obtained wealth, many have wrought valiantly, but you have exceeded, you have surpassed all. 30 Charms are false, and woman's beauty is vain: for it is a wise woman that is blessed, and let her praise the fear the Lord. 31 Give her of the fruit of her lips; and let her husband be praised in the gates.

Do all things with counsel: drink wine with counsel. 4 Princes are prone to anger: let them then not drink wine: 5 lest they drink, and forget wisdom, and be not able to judge the poor rightly. 6 Give strong drink to those that are in sorrow, and the wine to drink to those in pain: 7 that they may forget their poverty, and may not remember their troubles any more. 8 Open your mouth with the word of God, and judge all fairly. 9 Open your mouth and judge justly, and plead the cause of the poor and weak. 10 Who shall find a virtuous woman? for such a one is more valuable than precious stones. 11 The heart of her husband trusts in her: such a one shall stand in no need of fine spoils. 12 For she employs all her living for her husband's good. 13 Gathering wool and flax, she makes it serviceable with her hands. 14 She is like a ship trading from a distance: so she procures her livelihood. 15 And she rises by night, and gives food to her household, and [appointed] tasks to her maidens. 16 She views a farm, and buys it: and with the fruit of her hands she plants and a possession. 17 She strongly girds her loins, and strengthens her arms for work. 18 And she finds by experience that working is good; and her candle goes not out all night. 19 She reaches forth her arms to needful [works], and applies her hands to the spindle. 20 And she opens her hands to the needy, and reaches out fruit to the poor. 21 Her husband is not anxious about those at home when he tarries anywhere abroad: for all her household are clothed. 22 She makes for her husband clothes of double texture, and garments for herself of fine linen and scarlet. 23 And her husband becomes a distinguished [person] in the gates, when he sits in council with the old inhabitants of the land. 24 She makes fine linens, and sells girdles to the Chananites: she opens her mouth heedfully and with propriety, and controls her tongue. 25 She puts on strength and honor; and rejoices in the last days. 26 But she opens her mouth wisely, and according to law. 27 The ways of her household are careful, and she eats not the bread of idleness. 28 And [her] kindness to them sets up her children for them, and they grow rich, and her husband praises her. 29 Many daughters have obtained wealth, many have wrought valiantly; but you have exceeded, you have surpassed all. 30 Charms are false, and woman's beauty is vain: for it is a wise woman that is blessed, and let her praise the fear the Lord. 31 Give her of the fruit of her lips; and let her husband be praised in the gates.
NSB(i) 1 The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him. 2 What, O my son? And what, O son of my womb? And what, O son of my vows? 3 Do not give your strength to women. Do not give your ways to that which destroys kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel; it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes to desire strong drink. 5 They will drink and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted. 6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to those who are bitter. 7 Let him drink and forget his poverty. Let him remember his misery no more. 8 Open your mouth for the dumb in the cause of all who are appointed to destruction. 9 Open your mouth and judge righteously. Plead the cause of the poor and needy. 10 Who can find a virtuous woman? For her value is far above corals. 11 The heart of her husband safely trusts her. He will have no lack of gain. 12 She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life. 13 She seeks wool, and flax, and works willingly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchants' ships for she brings her food from afar. 15 She rises while it is still night and provides food for her household, and a portion to her maidens. 16 She considers a field and buys it. With the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard. 17 She fortifies herself with strength and strengthens her arms. 18 She perceives that her merchandise is good. Her candle does not go out at night. 19 She stretches her hands to the spindle and her hands hold the distaff. 20 She stretches out her hand to the poor. Yes, she reaches forth her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household. All her household is clothed with scarlet. 22 She makes herself coverings of tapestry. Her clothing is silk and purple. 23 Her husband is known in the gates when he sits among the elders of the land. 24 She makes fine linen and sells it. She supplies sashes for the merchants. 25 Strength and honor are her clothing. She will rejoice in time to come. 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law of kindness (she speaks kind things). 27 She watches over her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. 28 Her children arise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her. 29 Many daughters have done well, but you are above them all. 30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain. But a woman who respects Jehovah will be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands. Let her own works praise her in the gates.
ISV(i) 1 Counsel from King Lemuel’s Mother The words of King Lemuel— a pronouncement with which his mother encouraged him. 2 No, my son! No, my son whom I conceived! No, my son to whom I gave birth! 3 Never devote all your energy to sex, or dedicate your life to destroying kings. 4 It is not for kings, Lemuel— Not for kings to drink wine or for rulers to desire liquor. 5 Otherwise, they may drink and forget what has been ordained, perverting justice for all the oppressed. 6 Give liquor to someone who is perishing, and wine to someone who is deeply depressed. 7 Let him drink, forget his poverty, and remember his troubles no more. 8 Speak for those who cannot speak; seek justice for all those on the verge of destruction. 9 Speak up, judge righteously, and defend the rights of the afflicted and oppressed.
10 The Honorable WomanWho can find a capable wife? Her value far exceeds the finest jewels. 11 Her husband has full confidence in her; as a result, he lacks nothing of value. 12 She will bring good to him—never evil— every day of her life. 13 She seeks out wool and flax, working with eager hands. 14 She is like a seagoing ship that brings her food from far away. 15 She rises while it is still night, preparing meals for her family and providing for her women servants. 16 She evaluates a field and purchases it; from the proceeds she plants a vineyard. 17 She clothes herself with fortitude, and fortifies her arms with strength. 18 She is confident that her profits are sufficient. Her lamp does not go out at night. 19 She works with her own hands on her clothes— her hands work the sewing spindle. 20 She reaches out to the poor, opening her hands to those in need. 21 She is unafraid of winter’s effect on her household, because all of them are warmly clothed. 22 She creates her own bedding, using fine linen and violet cloth. 23 Her husband is well known; he sits among the leaders of the land. 24 She designs and sells linen garments, supplying accessories to clothiers. 25 Strength and dignity are her garments; she smiles about the future. 26 She speaks wisely, teaching with gracious love. 27 She looks discretely to the affairs of her household, and she is never lazy. 28 Her children stand up and encourage her, as does her husband, who praises her: 29 “Many women have done wonderful things,” he says, “but you surpass all of them!” 30 Charm is deceitful and beauty fades; but a woman who fears the LORD will be praised. 31 Reward her for her work— let her actions result in public praise.
LEB(i) 1 The words of Lemuel, the king—an oracle that his mother taught him: 2 What, my son? And what, my son in my womb? And what, son of my vows? 3 Do not give your strength to the women, and your ways to destroy kings. 4 It is not for the kings, O Lemuel; drinking wine is not for the kings, nor is strong drink for rulers. 5 Or else he will drink and forget what has been decreed, and he will pervert the rights* of all the ⌊afflicted⌋.* 6 Give strong drink to him who is perishing, and wine to those ⌊in bitter distress⌋.* 7 He will drink and forget his poverty, and his misery he will not remember any more. 8 Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights* of all the ⌊needy⌋.* 9 Open your mouth, judge righteousness, and defend the poor and needy. 10 A woman* of excellence,* who will find? For her worth is far more than precious jewels. 11 The heart of her husband* trusts in her, and gain he will not lack. 12 She does him good, but not harm all the days of her life. 13 She seeks wool and flax, and she works with the diligence of ⌊her hands⌋.* 14 She is like the ships of a merchant; from far off she brings her food;* 15 And she arises while it is still night, and gives food to her household, and tasks to her servant girls. 16 She considers a field and buys it, from the fruit of ⌊her hand⌋* she plants a vineyard. 17 She girds her waist in strength, and makes her arms strong. 18 She perceives that her merchandise is good; her lamp does not go out in the night. 19 Her hands she puts onto the distaff,* and her palms hold a spindle. 20 Her palm she opens to the poor, and her hand she reaches out to the needy. 21 She does not fear for her house when it snows, for ⌊her entire household⌋* is clothed in crimson. 22 She makes for herself coverings; her clothing is fine linen and purple. 23 Her husband* is known at the gates, in his seat among the elders of the land. 24 Linen garments she makes and sells, and she supplies sashes for the merchants. 25 Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs ⌊at the future⌋.* 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, and instruction of kindness is upon her tongue. 27 She looks after the ways of her household, and the bread of idleness she will not eat. 28 Her children rise and consider her happy, her husband* also, and he praises her; 29 "Many daughters have done excellence,* but ⌊you surpass⌋* all of them." 30 Charm* is deceit and beauty* is vain;* but a woman who fears Yahweh shall be praised. 31 Give to her from the fruit of her hand, and may they praise her works in the city gates.
BSB(i) 1 These are the words of King Lemuel—the burden that his mother taught him: 2 What shall I say, O my son? What, O son of my womb? What, O son of my vows? 3 Do not spend your strength on women or your vigor on those who ruin kings. 4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, or for rulers to crave strong drink, 5 lest they drink and forget what is decreed, depriving all the oppressed of justice. 6 Give strong drink to one who is perishing, and wine to the bitter in soul. 7 Let him drink and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more. 8 Open your mouth for those with no voice, for the cause of all the dispossessed. 9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and defend the cause of the poor and needy. 10 A wife of noble character, who can find? She is far more precious than rubies. 11 The heart of her husband trusts in her, and he lacks nothing of value. 12 She brings him good and not harm all the days of her life. 13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands. 14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. 15 She rises while it is still night to provide food for her household and portions for her maidservants. 16 She appraises a field and buys it; from her earnings she plants a vineyard. 17 She girds herself with strength and shows that her arms are strong. 18 She sees that her gain is good, and her lamp is not extinguished at night. 19 She stretches out her hands to the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers. 20 She opens her arms to the poor and reaches out her hands to the needy. 21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household, for they are all clothed in scarlet. 22 She makes coverings for her bed; her clothing is fine linen and purple. 23 Her husband is known at the city gate, where he sits among the elders of the land. 24 She makes linen garments and sells them; she delivers sashes to the merchants. 25 Strength and honor are her clothing, and she can laugh at the days to come. 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue. 27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. 28 Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband praises her as well: 29 “Many daughters have done noble things, but you surpass them all!” 30 Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. 31 Give her the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her at the gates.

Luther1912(i) 1 Dies sind die Worte des Königs Lamuel, die Lehre, die ihn seine Mutter lehrte. 2 Ach mein Auserwählter, ach du Sohn meines Leibes, ach mein gewünschter Sohn, 3 laß nicht den Weibern deine Kraft und gehe die Wege nicht, darin sich die Könige verderben! 4 O, nicht den Königen, Lamuel, nicht den Königen ziemt es, Wein zu trinken, noch den Fürsten starkes Getränk! 5 Sie möchten trinken und der Rechte vergessen und verändern die Sache aller elenden Leute. 6 Gebt starkes Getränk denen, die am Umkommen sind, und den Wein den betrübten Seelen, 7 daß sie trinken und ihres Elends vergessen und ihres Unglücks nicht mehr gedenken. 8 Tue deinen Mund auf für die Stummen und für die Sache aller, die verlassen sind. 9 Tue deinen Mund auf und richte recht und räche den Elenden und Armen. 10 Wem ein tugendsam Weib beschert ist, die ist viel edler denn die köstlichsten Perlen. 11 Ihres Mannes Herz darf sich auf sie verlassen, und Nahrung wird ihm nicht mangeln. 12 Sie tut ihm Liebes und kein Leides ihr Leben lang. 13 Sie geht mit Wolle und Flachs um und arbeitet gern mit ihren Händen. 14 Sie ist wie ein Kaufmannsschiff, das seine Nahrung von ferne bringt. 15 Sie steht vor Tages auf und gibt Speise ihrem Hause und Essen ihren Dirnen. 16 Sie denkt nach einem Acker und kauft ihn und pflanzt einen Weinberg von den Früchten ihrer Hände. 17 Sie gürtet ihre Lenden mit Kraft und stärkt ihre Arme. 18 Sie merkt, wie ihr Handel Frommen bringt; ihre Leuchte verlischt des Nachts nicht. 19 Sie streckt ihre Hand nach dem Rocken, und ihre Finger fassen die Spindel. 20 Sie breitet ihre Hände aus zu dem Armen und reicht ihre Hand dem Dürftigen. 21 Sie fürchtet für ihr Haus nicht den Schnee; denn ihr ganzes Haus hat zwiefache Kleider. 22 Sie macht sich selbst Decken; feine Leinwand und Purpur ist ihr Kleid. 23 Ihr Mann ist bekannt in den Toren, wenn er sitzt bei den Ältesten des Landes. 24 Sie macht einen Rock und verkauft ihn; einen Gürtel gibt sie dem Krämer. 25 Kraft und Schöne sind ihr Gewand, und sie lacht des kommenden Tages. 26 Sie tut ihren Mund auf mit Weisheit, und auf ihrer Zunge ist holdselige Lehre. 27 Sie schaut, wie es in ihrem Hause zugeht, und ißt ihr Brot nicht mit Faulheit. 28 Ihre Söhne stehen auf und preisen sie selig; ihr Mann lobt sie: 29 "Viele Töchter halten sich tugendsam; du aber übertriffst sie alle." 30 Lieblich und schön sein ist nichts; ein Weib, das den HERRN fürchtet, soll man loben. 31 Sie wird gerühmt werden von den Früchten ihrer Hände, und ihre Werke werden sie loben in den Toren.

Wie zal een deugdelijke huisvrouw vinden? Want haar waardij is verre boven de robijnen. 11 Beth. Het hart haars heren vertrouwt op haar, zodat hem geen goed zal ontbreken. 12 Gimel. Zij doet hem goed en geen kwaad, al de dagen haars levens. 13 Daleth. Zij zoekt wol en vlas, en werkt met lust harer handen. 14 He. Zij is als de schepen eens koopmans; zij doet haar brood van verre komen. 15 Vau. En zij staat op, als het nog nacht is, en geeft haar huis spijze, en haar dienstmaagden het bescheiden deel. 16 Zain. Zij denkt om een akker, en krijgt hem; van de vrucht harer handen plant zij een wijngaard. 17 Cheth. Zij gordt haar lenden met kracht, en zij versterkt haar armen. 18 Teth. Zij smaakt, dat haar koophandel goed is; haar lamp gaat des nachts niet uit. 19 Jod. Zij steekt haar handen uit naar de spil, en haar handpalmen vatten den spinrok. 20 Caph. Zij breidt haar handpalm uit tot den ellendige; en zij steekt haar handen uit tot den nooddruftige. 21 Lamed. Zij vreest voor haar huis niet vanwege de sneeuw; want haar ganse huis is met dubbele klederen gekleed. 22 Mem. Zij maakt voor zich tapijtsieraad; haar kleding is fijn linnen en purper. 23 Nun. Haar man is bekend in de poorten, als hij zit met de oudsten des lands. 24 Samech. Zij maakt fijn lijnwaad en verkoopt het; en zij levert den koopman gordelen. 25 Ain. Sterkte en heerlijkheid zijn haar kleding; en zij lacht over den nakomenden dag. 26 Pe. Zij doet haar mond open met wijsheid; en op haar tong is leer der goeddadigheid. 27 Tsade. Zij beschouwt de gangen van haar huis; en het brood der luiheid eet zij niet. 28 Koph. Haar kinderen staan op, en roemen haar welgelukzalig; ook haar man, en hij prijst haar, zeggende: 29 Resch. Vele dochteren hebben deugdelijke gehandeld; maar gij gaat die allen te boven. 30 Schin. De bevalligheid is bedrog, en de schoonheid ijdelheid; maar een vrouw, die den HEERE vreest, die zal geprezen worden. 31 Thau.

Giguet(i) 1 ¶ Ces paroles de moi ont été dites par Dieu; elles sont l’oracle du roi que sa mère a instruit. 2 Enfant, que garderas-tu? Quoi? La parole de Dieu. Mon fils premier-né, que me reste-t-il à te dire, enfant de mes entrailles, enfant de mes yeux? 3 Ne donne point aux femmes ta richesse, ta pensée et ta vie, de peur d’un remords tardif; 4 fais tout avec prudence; bois du vin avec mesure. Les princes sont irascibles; qu’ils ne boivent point de vin, 5 de peur qu’en buvant ils n’oublient la sagesse, et ne puissent plus juger les pauvres avec droiture. 6 Enivrez les affligés; donnez du vin à boire à ceux qui souffrent; 7 afin qu’ils oublient leur pauvreté, et ne se souviennent plus de leurs peines. 8 Ouvre la bouche à la parole de Dieu, et rends justice à tous. 9 Ouvre la bouche et juge selon l’équité, et plaide la cause du pauvre et du faible. 10 ¶ Une femme forte, qui la trouvera? Une telle femme a plus de prix que les pierres précieuses. 11 Le cœur de son mari a confiance en elle; jamais une telle femme n’aura besoin de recourir aux riches dépouilles d’un ennemi. 12 Car elle emploie toute sa vie au bien de son époux. 13 Elle dévide le lin et la laine, et elle fait de ses mains d’utiles travaux. 14 Elle est comme un navire qui arrive de loin chargé de vivres; 15 elle se lève avant le jour pour donner sa provende à la maison, et leur tâche à ses servantes. 16 Elle a considéré le champ, et l’a acheté; et, dans cette propriété, elle sème des graines que ses mains ont recueillies. 17 Elle ceint fortement ses reins, et met à l’œuvre toute la force de ses bras. 18 Elle sait par expérience que le travail est bon, et sa lampe ne s’éteint pas de toute la nuit. 19 Elle étend les bras partout où il est utile, et ses mains ne quittent pas le fuseau. 20 Elle a la main ouverte pour le pauvre, et présente un fruit au mendiant. 21 Son mari n’a pas à s’inquiéter des gens de sa maison, quel que soit le lieu où il est retenu; car elle a vêtu tous ceux qui sont auprès d’elle. 22 Elle a fait pour son mari des manteaux doubles, et pour elle-même des manteaux de fin lin et de pourpre. 23 Son mari est considéré devant les portes de la ville, lorsqu’il siège au conseil avec les anciens de la terre. 24 Elle fait des toiles de fin lin; elle vend des ceintures aux Chananéens. 25 Elle ouvre la bouche avec prudence et mesure; elle a mis un frein à sa langue. 26 Elle s’est revêtue de force et de beauté, et goûte une douce joie dans ses derniers jours. 27 Les habitudes de sa maison sont réglées; elle ne mange point les fruits de la paresse. 28 Elle ouvre la bouche sagement et selon la loi. Elle a élevé ses enfants avec tendresse, et ils se sont enrichis; et son époux a fait son éloge 29 beaucoup de filles ont acquis des richesses, beaucoup ont été vertueuses; mais toi, tu es au-dessus d’elles, tu les as toutes surpassées. 30 Les grâces sont trompeuses, et la beauté de la femme est vanité; mais la femme intelligente sera bénie, et celle qui craint le Seigneur sera louée. 31 Donnez-lui les fruits de ses lèvres, et que son époux soit loué aux portes de la ville.

Paroles du roi Lemuel, l'oracle que sa mère lui enseigna: 2 Quoi, mon fils? et quoi, fils de mon ventre? et quoi, fils de mes voeux? 3 Ne donne point ta force aux femmes, ni tes voies à celles qui perdent les rois. 4 Ce n'est point aux rois, Lemuel, ce n'est point aux rois de boire du vin, ni aux grands de dire: Où sont les boissons fortes? 5 de peur qu'ils ne boivent, et n'oublient le statut, et ne fassent fléchir le jugement de tous les fils de l'affliction. 6 Donnez de la boisson forte à celui qui va périr, et du vin à ceux qui ont l'amertume dans le coeur: 7 qu'il boive et qu'il oublie sa pauvreté, et ne se souvienne plus de ses peines. 8 Ouvre ta bouche pour le muet, pour la cause de tous les délaissés. 9 Ouvre ta bouche, juge avec justice, et fais droit à l'affligé et au pauvre. 10
Une femme vertueuse! Qui la trouvera? Car son prix est bien au delà des rubis. 11 Le coeur de son mari se confie en elle, et il ne manquera point de butin. 12 Elle lui fait du bien et non du mal, tous les jours de sa vie. 13 Elle cherche de la laine et du lin, et travaille de ses mains avec joie. 14 Elle est comme les navires d'un marchand, elle amène son pain de loin. 15 Elle se lève quand il est encore nuit, et elle donne la nourriture à sa maison, et la tâche à ses servantes. 16 Elle pense à un champ, et elle l'acquiert; du fruit de ses mains elle plante une vigne. 17 Elle ceint ses reins de force, et fortifie ses bras. 18 Elle éprouve que son trafic est bon; de nuit sa lampe ne s'éteint pas. 19 Elle met la main à la quenouille, et ses doigts tiennent le fuseau. 20 Elle étend sa main vers l'affligé, et tend ses mains au nécessiteux. 21 Elle ne craint pas la neige pour sa maison, car toute sa maison est vêtue d'écarlate. 22 Elle se fait des tapis; le fin coton et la pourpre sont ses vêtements. 23 Son mari est connu dans les portes quand il s'assied avec les anciens du pays. 24 Elle fait des chemises, et les vend; et elle livre des ceintures au marchand. 25 Elle est vêtue de force et de dignité, et elle se rit du jour à venir. 26 Elle ouvre sa bouche avec sagesse, et la loi de la bonté est sur sa langue. 27 Elle surveille les voies de sa maison, et ne mange pas le pain de paresse. 28 Ses fils se lèvent et la disent bienheureuse, son mari aussi, et il la loue: 29 Plusieurs filles ont agi vertueusement; mais toi, tu les surpasses toutes! 30 La grâce est trompeuse, et la beauté est vanité; la femme qui craint l'Éternel, c'est elle qui sera louée. 31 Donnez-lui du fruit de ses mains, et qu'aux portes ses oeuvres la louent.
Martin(i) 1 Les paroles du Roi Lémuel et l'instruction que sa mère lui donna. 2 Quoi ? mon fils ? quoi, fils de mon ventre ? eh quoi ? mon fils, pour lequel j'ai tant fait de voeux ? 3 Ne donne point ta force aux femmes, et ne mets point ton étude à détruire les Rois. 4 Lémuel, ce n'est point aux Rois, ce n'est point aux Rois de boire le vin, ni aux Princes de boire la cervoise. 5 De peur qu'ayant bu, ils n'oublient l'ordonnance, et qu'ils n'altèrent le droit de tous les pauvres affligés. 6 Donnez de la cervoise à celui qui s'en va périr, et du vin à celui qui est dans l'amertume de coeur; 7 Afin qu'il en boive, et qu'il oublie sa pauvreté, et ne se souvienne plus de sa peine. 8 Ouvre ta bouche en faveur du muet, pour le droit de tous ceux qui s'en vont périr. 9 Ouvre ta bouche, fais justice, et fais droit à l'affligé et au nécessiteux. 10 Aleph. Qui est-ce qui trouvera une vaillante femme ? car son prix surpasse de beaucoup les perles. 11 Beth. Le coeur de son mari s'assure en elle, et il ne manquera point de dépouilles. 12 Guimel. Elle lui fait du bien tous les jours de sa vie, et jamais du mal. 13 Daleth. Elle cherche de la laine et du lin, et elle fait ce qu'elle veut de ses mains. 14 He. Elle est comme les navires d'un marchand, elle amène son pain de loin. 15 Vau. Elle se lève lorsqu'il est encore nuit, elle distribue la nourriture nécessaire à sa maison, et elle donne à ses servantes leur tâche. 16 Zajin. Elle considère un champ, et l'acquiert; et elle plante la vigne du fruit de ses mains. 17 Heth. Elle ceint ses reins de force, et fortifie ses bras. 18 Teth. Elle éprouve que son trafic est bon; sa lampe ne s'éteint point la nuit. 19 Jod. Elle met ses mains au fuseau, et ses mains tiennent la quenouille. 20 Caph. Elle tend sa main à l'affligé, et avance ses mains au nécessiteux. 21 Lamed. Elle ne craint point la neige pour sa famille, car toute sa famille est vêtue de vêtements doubles. 22 Mem. Elle se fait des tours de lit; le fin lin et l'écarlate est ce dont elle s'habille. 23 Nun. Son mari est reconnu aux portes, quand il est assis avec les Anciens du pays. 24 Samech. Elle fait du linge, et le vend; et elle fait des ceintures, qu'elle donne au marchand. 25 Hajin. La force et la magnificence est son vêtement, et elle se rit du jour à venir. 26 Pe. Elle ouvre sa bouche avec sagesse, et la Loi de la charité est sur sa langue. 27 Tsade. Elle contemple le train de sa maison, et ne mange point le pain de paresse. 28 Koph. Ses enfants se lèvent, et la disent bienheureuse; son mari aussi, et il la loue, en disant : 29 Resch. Plusieurs filles ont été vaillantes; mais tu les surpasses toutes. 30 Scin. La grâce trompe, et la beauté s'évanouit; mais la femme qui craint l'Eternel, sera celle qui sera louée. 31 Thau. Donnez-lui des fruits de ses mains, et que ses oeuvres la louent aux portes.
Segond(i) 1 Paroles du roi Lemuel. Sentences par lesquelles sa mère l'instruisit. 2 Que te dirai-je, mon fils? que te dirai-je, fils de mes entrailles? Que te dirai-je, mon fils, objet de mes voeux? 3 Ne livre pas ta vigueur aux femmes, Et tes voies à celles qui perdent les rois. 4 Ce n'est point aux rois, Lemuel, Ce n'est point aux rois de boire du vin, Ni aux princes de rechercher des liqueurs fortes, 5 De peur qu'en buvant ils n'oublient la loi, Et ne méconnaissent les droits de tous les malheureux. 6 Donnez des liqueurs fortes à celui qui périt, Et du vin à celui qui a l'amertume dans l'âme; 7 Qu'il boive et oublie sa pauvreté, Et qu'il ne se souvienne plus de ses peines. 8 Ouvre ta bouche pour le muet, Pour la cause de tous les délaissés. 9 Ouvre ta bouche, juge avec justice, Et défends le malheureux et l'indigent. 10 Qui peut trouver une femme vertueuse? Elle a bien plus de valeur que les perles. 11 Le coeur de son mari a confiance en elle, Et les produits ne lui feront pas défaut. 12 Elle lui fait du bien, et non du mal, Tous les jours de sa vie. 13 Elle se procure de la laine et du lin, Et travaille d'une main joyeuse. 14 Elle est comme un navire marchand, Elle amène son pain de loin. 15 Elle se lève lorsqu'il est encore nuit, Et elle donne la nourriture à sa maison Et la tâche à ses servantes. 16 Elle pense à un champ, et elle l'acquiert; Du fruit de son travail elle plante une vigne. 17 Elle ceint de force ses reins, Et elle affermit ses bras. 18 Elle sent que ce qu'elle gagne est bon; Sa lampe ne s'éteint point pendant la nuit. 19 Elle met la main à la quenouille, Et ses doigts tiennent le fuseau. 20 Elle tend la main au malheureux, Elle tend la main à l'indigent. 21 Elle ne craint pas la neige pour sa maison, Car toute sa maison est vêtue de cramoisi. 22 Elle se fait des couvertures, Elle a des vêtements de fin lin et de pourpre. 23 Son mari est considéré aux portes, Lorsqu'il siège avec les anciens du pays. 24 Elle fait des chemises, et les vend, Et elle livre des ceintures au marchand. 25 Elle est revêtue de force et de gloire, Et elle se rit de l'avenir. 26 Elle ouvre la bouche avec sagesse, Et des instructions aimables sont sur sa langue. 27 Elle veille sur ce qui se passe dans sa maison, Et elle ne mange pas le pain de paresse. 28 Ses fils se lèvent, et la disent heureuse; Son mari se lève, et lui donne des louanges: 29 Plusieurs filles ont une conduite vertueuse; Mais toi, tu les surpasses toutes. 30 La grâce est trompeuse, et la beauté est vaine; La femme qui craint l'Eternel est celle qui sera louée. 31 Récompensez-la du fruit de son travail, Et qu'aux portes ses oeuvres la louent.

Albanian(i) 1 Fjalë të mbretit Lemuel, mesazhi profetik me të cilin e mësoi e ëma. 2 Çfarë të të them, biri im? Çfarë të të them, biri i barkut tim? Çfarë të të them, bir i zotimeve të mia? 3 Mos ua jep forcën tënde grave as jetën tënde asaj që shkatërron mbretërit. 4 Nuk u shkon mbretërve, o Lemuel, nuk u shkon mbretërve të pinë verë as princave të dëshirojnë pije dehëse, 5 sepse duke pirë të mos harrojnë ligjin dhe të mos shtrembërojnë të drejtën e të pikëlluarve. 6 Jepini pije dehëse atij që është duke vdekur dhe verë atij që e ka zemrën të hidhëruar. 7 Le të pijë për të harruar varfërinë e tij dhe për të mos kujtuar më hallet e tij. 8 Hape gojën tënde në favor të memecit, në mbrojtje të të gjithë atyre që janë lënë pas dore. 9 Hape gojën tënde, gjyko me drejtësi dhe mbro çështjen e të mjerit dhe të nevojtarit. 10 Kush do të gjejë një grua të fortë dhe të virtytshme? Vlera e saj është shumë më e madhe nga ajo e margaritarëve. 11 Zemra e burrit të saj ka besim tek ajo, dhe do të ketë gjithnjë fitime. 12 Ajo i bën të mira dhe jo të keqe tërë ditët e jetës së saj. 13 Gjen lesh dhe li dhe punon me gëzim me duart e veta. 14 Ajo u përngjan anijeve të tregëtarëve: e sjell ushqimin e saj nga larg. 15 Çohet që me natë për t'i ndarë ushqimin familjes së saj dhe për t'u dhënë urdhërat e nevojshme shërbëtoreve të saj. 16 Ajo shikon një arë dhe e ble; me duart e saj mbjell një vresht. 17 Ngjesh me forcë ijët dhe i bën më të fortë krahët e saj. 18 E kupton që tregëtia e saj po shkon mbarë dhe llamba e saj e natës nuk i shuhet. 19 Shtrin dorën mbi furkën, pëllëmbat e saj zënë boshtin. 20 I shtrin dorën të varfërit dhe i jep dorën nevojtarit. 21 Nuk i trembet borës për familjen e saj, sepse tërë ata të shtëpisë së vet kanë një veshje të dyfishtë. 22 Bën për vete mbulesa si sixhade dhe rrobat e saj janë prej liri shumë të hollë dhe të purpurta. 23 Burri i saj nderohet te porta, kur ulet bashkë me pleqtë e vendit. 24 Përgatit rroba prej liri dhe i shet, i furnizon me breza tregtarët. 25 Forca dhe nderi janë rrobat e saj dhe qesh për ditët që do të vijnë. 26 Hap gojën e saj me dituri dhe mbi gjuhën e saj është ligji i mirësisë. 27 Ajo mbikqyr si shkon shtëpia e vet dhe nuk ha bukën e përtacisë. 28 Bijtë e saj ngrihen dhe e shpallin fatlume; edhe burri i saj e lëvdon duke thënë: 29 "Shumë bija kanë bërë gjëra të mëdha, por ti i kalon të gjitha ato". 30 Hiri është i rremë dhe bukuria është e kotë, por gruaja që ka frikë nga Zoti është ajo që do të lëvdohet. 31 I jepni frytin e duarve të saj, dhe vet veprat e saj le ta lëvdojnë te portat.
RST(i) 1 Слова Лемуила царя. Наставление, которое преподала ему мать его: 2 что, сын мой? что, сын чрева моего? что, сын обетов моих? 3 Не отдавай женщинам сил твоих, ни путей твоих губительницам царей. 4 Не царям, Лемуил, не царям пить вино, и не князьям – сикеру, 5 чтобы, напившись, они не забыли закона и не превратили суда всех угнетаемых. 6 Дайте сикеру погибающему и вино огорченному душею; 7 пусть он выпьет и забудет бедность свою и не вспомнит больше о своем страдании. 8 Открывай уста твои за безгласного и для защиты всех сирот. 9 Открывай уста твои для правосудия и для дела бедного и нищего. 10 Кто найдет добродетельную жену? цена ее выше жемчугов; 11 уверено в ней сердце мужа ее, и он не останется без прибытка; 12 она воздает ему добром, а не злом, во все дни жизни своей. 13 Добывает шерсть и лен, и с охотою работает своими руками. 14 Она, как купеческие корабли, издалека добывает хлеб свой. 15 Она встает еще ночью и раздает пищу в доме своем и урочное служанкам своим. 16 Задумает она о поле, и приобретает его; от плодов рук своих насаждает виноградник. 17 Препоясывает силою чресла свои и укрепляет мышцы свои. 18 Она чувствует, что занятие ее хорошо, и – светильник ее не гаснет и ночью. 19 Протягивает руки свои к прялке, и персты ее берутся за веретено. 20 Длань свою она открывает бедному, и руку свою подает нуждающемуся. 21 Не боится стужи для семьи своей, потому что вся семья ее одета в двойные одежды. 22 Она делает себе ковры; виссон и пурпур – одежда ее. 23 Муж ее известен у ворот, когда сидит со старейшинами земли. 24 Она делает покрывала и продает, и поясы доставляет купцам Финикийским. 25 Крепость и красота – одежда ее, и весело смотритона на будущее. 26 Уста свои открывает с мудростью, и кроткое наставление на языке ее. 27 Она наблюдает за хозяйством в доме своем и не ест хлеба праздности. 28 Встают дети и ублажают ее, – муж, и хвалит ее: 29 „много было жен добродетельных, но ты превзошла всех их". 30 Миловидность обманчива и красота суетна; но жена, боящаяся Господа, достойна хвалы. 31 Дайте ей от плода рук ее, и да прославят ее у ворот дела ее!
Arabic(i) 1 كلام لموئيل ملك مسّا. علّمته اياه امه. 2 ماذا يا ابني ثم ماذا يا ابن رحمي ثم ماذا يا ابن نذوري ـــ 3 لا تعطي حيلك للنساء ولا طرقك لمهلكات الملوك. 4 ليس للملوك يا لموئيل ليس للملوك ان يشربوا خمرا ولا للعظماء المسكر. 5 لئلا يشربوا وينسوا المفروض ويغيّروا حجة كل بني المذلة. 6 اعطوا مسكرا لهالك وخمرا لمرّي النفس. 7 يشرب وينسى فقره ولا يذكر تعبه بعد 8 افتح فمك لاجل الاخرس في دعوى كل يتيم. 9 افتح فمك. اقض بالعدل وحام عن الفقير والمسكين 10 امرأة فاضلة من يجدها لان ثمنها يفوق اللآلئ. 11 بها يثق قلب زوجها فلا يحتاج الى غنيمة. 12 تصنع له خيرا لا شرا كل ايام حياتها. 13 تطلب صوفا وكتانا وتشتغل بيدين راضيتين. 14 هي كسفن التاجر. تجلب طعامها من بعيد. 15 وتقوم اذ الليل بعد وتعطي اكلا لاهل بيتها وفريضة لفتياتها. 16 تتأمل حقلا فتأخذه وبثمر يديها تغرس كرما. 17 تنطّق حقويها بالقوة وتشدد ذراعيها. 18 تشعر ان تجارتها جيدة. سراجها لا ينطفئ في الليل. 19 تمد يديها الى المغزل وتمسك كفّاها بالفلكة. 20 تبسط كفيها للفقير وتمد يديها الى المسكين. 21 لا تخشى على بيتها من الثلج لان كل اهل بيتها لابسون حللا. 22 تعمل لنفسها موشيات. لبسها بوص وارجوان. 23 زوجها معروف في الابواب حين يجلس بين مشايخ الارض. 24 تصنع قمصانا وتبيعها وتعرض مناطق على الكنعاني. 25 العزّ والبهاء لباسها وتضحك على الزمن الآتي. 26 تفتح فمها بالحكمة وفي لسانها سنّة المعروف. 27 تراقب طرق اهل بيتها ولا تأكل خبز الكسل. 28 يقوم اولادها ويطوّبونها. زوجها ايضا فيمدحها. 29 بنات كثيرات عملن فضلا اما انت ففقت عليهنّ جميعا. 30 الحسن غش والجمال باطل. اما المرأة المتقية الرب فهي تمدح. 31 اعطوها من ثمر يديها ولتمدحها اعمالها في الابواب
Bulgarian(i) 1 Думите на цар Лемуил, наставлението, с което го наставляваше майка му: 2 Какво, сине мой? И какво, сине на утробата ми? И какво, сине на обещанията ми? 3 Не давай силата си на жени, нито пътищата си — на погубителките на царете. 4 Не е за царете, Лемуиле, не е за царете да пият вино, нито за князете — спиртно питие! 5 Да не би да пият и да забравят наредбата, и да изкривят съда на всички угнетени. 6 Давайте спиртно питие на отчаяния и вино — на огорчените по душа. 7 Нека пийне и забрави бедността си, и не помни вече злостраданието си. 8 Отваряй устата си за безгласния, за съда на всички сираци. 9 Отваряй устата си, съди справедливо и защитавай делото на сиромаха и немотния. 10 Кой може да намери добродетелна жена? Защото е много по-скъпа от скъпоценни камъни. 11 Сърцето на мъжа й се уповава на нея и той няма да бъде лишен от изобилие. 12 Тя му прави добро, а не зло през всичките дни на живота си. 13 Търси вълна и лен и работи с ръцете си с желание. 14 Тя е като търговските кораби — донася храната си отдалеч. 15 И става, докато е още нощ, и дава храна на дома си и определената работа на слугините си. 16 Оглежда нива и я купува, и от плода на ръцете си сади лозе. 17 Опасва кръста си със сила и укрепва ръцете си, 18 вижда, че добивът й е добър. Светилникът й не угасва и през нощта, 19 протяга ръцете си към вретеното и пръстите й държат хурката. 20 Разтваря ръката си за сиромасите и протяга ръцете си към немотните. 21 Не се бои от снега за дома си, защото всичките й домашни са облечени с топли дрехи. 22 Прави си завивки и облеклото й е висон и пурпур. 23 Мъжът й е познат в портите, когато седи между местните старейшини. 24 Прави тъкани и ги продава и доставя пояси на търговеца. 25 Сила и достолепие са облеклото й и тя се усмихва на идния ден. 26 Отваря устата си с мъдрост и кротка поука е на езика й. 27 Наглежда домакинството в дома си и хляб на леност не яде. 28 Синовете й стават и я благославят, мъжът й я хвали и казва: 29 Много дъщери са се държали достойно, но ти надмина всички! 30 Красотата е измамна и хубостта е суета, но жена, която се бои от ГОСПОДА, тя ще бъде похвалена. 31 Дайте й от плода на ръцете й и делата й нека я хвалят в портите!
Croatian(i) 1 Riječ Lemuela, kralja Mase, kojima ga je učila majka njegova. 2 Ne, sine moj! Ne, sine srca mog! Ne, sine zavjeta mojih! 3 Ne daj snage svoje ženama ni putova svojih zatiračima kraljeva. 4 Nije za kraljeve, Lemuele, ne pristaje kraljevima vino piti, ni glavarima piće opojno, 5 da u piću ne zaborave zakona i prevrnu pravo nevoljnicima. 6 Dajte žestoko piće onomu koji će propasti i vino čovjeku komu je gorčina u duši: 7 on će piti i zaboraviti svoju bijedu i neće se više sjećati svoje nevolje. 8 Otvaraj usta svoja za nijemoga i za pravo sviju nesretnika što propadaju. 9 Otvaraj usta svoja, sudi pravedno i pribavi pravo siromahu i nevoljniku. 10 Tko će naći ženu vrsnu? Više vrijedi ona nego biserje. 11 Muževljevo se srce uzda u nju i blagom neće oskudijevati. 12 Ona mu čini dobro, a ne zlo, u sve dane vijeka svojeg. 13 Pribavlja vunu i lan i vješto radi rukama marnim. 14 Ona je kao lađa trgovačka: izdaleka donosi kruh svoj. 15 Još za noći ona ustaje, hrani svoje ukućane i određuje posao sluškinjama svojim. 16 Opazi li polje, kupi ga; plodom svojih ruku sadi vinograd. 17 Opasuje snagom bedra svoja i živo miče rukama. 18 Vidi kako joj posao napreduje: noću joj se ne gasi svjetiljka. 19 Rukama se maša preslice i prstima drži vreteno. 20 Siromahu dlan svoj otvara, ruke pruža nevoljnicima. 21 Ne boji se snijega za svoje ukućane, jer sva čeljad ima po dvoje haljine. 22 Sama sebi šije pokrivače, odijeva se lanom i purpurom. 23 Muž joj je slavan na Vratima, gdje sjedi sa starješinama zemaljskim. 24 Platno tka i prodaje ga i pojase daje trgovcu. 25 Odjevena je snagom i dostojanstvom, pa se smije danu budućem. 26 Svoja usta mudro otvara i pobožan joj je nauk na jeziku. 27 Na vladanje pazi ukućana i ne jede kruha besposlice. 28 Sinovi njezini podižu se i sretnom je nazivaju, i muž njezin hvali je: 29 "Mnoge su žene bile vrsne, ali ti ih sve nadmašuješ." 30 Lažna je ljupkost, tašta je ljepota: žena sa strahom Gospodnjim zaslužuje hvalu. 31 Plod joj dajte ruku njezinih i neka je na Vratima hvale djela njezina!
BKR(i) 1 Slova proroctví Lemuele krále, kterýmž vyučovala jej matka jeho. 2 Co dím, synu můj, co, synu života mého? Co, řku, dím, synu slibů mých? 3 Nedávej ženám síly své, ani cest svých těm, kteréž k zahynutí přivodí krále. 4 Ne králům, ó Lemueli, ne králům náleží píti víno, a ne pánům žádost nápoje opojného, 5 Aby pije, nezapomněl na ustanovení, a nezměnil pře všech lidí ssoužených. 6 Dejte nápoj opojný hynoucímu, a víno těm, kteříž jsou truchlivého ducha, 7 Ať se napije, a zapomene na chudobu svou, a na trápení své nezpomíná více. 8 Otevři ústa svá za němého, v při všech oddaných k smrti, 9 Otevři, řku, ústa svá, suď spravedlivě, a veď při chudého a nuzného. 10 Ženu statečnou kdo nalezne? Nebo daleko nad perly cena její. 11 Dověřuje se jí srdce muže jejího; nebo tu kořistí nebude nedostatku. 12 Dobře činí jemu a ne zle, po všecky dny života svého. 13 Hledá pilně vlny a lnu, a dělá šťastně rukama svýma. 14 Jest podobná lodi kupecké, zdaleka přiváží pokrm svůj. 15 Kterážto velmi ráno vstávajíc, dává pokrm čeledi své, a podíl náležitý děvkám svým. 16 Rozsuzuje pole, a ujímá je; z výdělku rukou svých štěpuje i vinici. 17 Přepasuje silou bedra svá, a zsiluje ramena svá. 18 Zakouší, jak jest užitečné zaměstknání její; ani v noci nehasne svíce její. 19 Rukama svýma sahá k kuželi, a prsty svými drží vřeteno. 20 Ruku svou otvírá chudému, a ruce své vztahuje k nuznému. 21 Nebojí se za čeled svou v čas sněhu; nebo všecka čeled její obláčí se v roucho dvojnásobní. 22 Koberce dělá sobě z kmentu, a z zlatohlavu jest oděv její. 23 Patrný jest v branách manžel její, když sedá s staršími země. 24 Plátno drahé dělá, a prodává; též i pasy prodává kupci. 25 Síla a krása oděv její, nestará se o časy potomní. 26 Ústa svá otvírá k moudrosti, a naučení dobrotivosti v jazyku jejím. 27 Spatřuje obcování čeledi své, a chleba zahálky nejí. 28 Povstanouce synové její, blahoslaví ji; manžel její také chválí ji, 29 Říkaje: Mnohé ženy statečně sobě počínaly, ty pak převyšuješ je všecky. 30 Oklamavatelná jest příjemnost a marná krása; žena, kteráž se bojí Hospodina, tať chválena bude. 31 Dejtež takové z ovoce rukou jejích, a nechať ji chválí v branách skutkové její.
Danish(i) 1 Lemuels, en Konges, Ord; et varslende Ord, hvormed hans Moder underviste ham. 2 Hvad? min Søn! og hvad? mit Livs Søn! og hvad? mine Løfters Søn! 3 Giv ikke Kvinderne din Kraft, og giv dig ikke ind paa en Vej, der Ødelægger Konger. 4 Det bør ikke Konger, Lemuel! det bør ikke Konger at drikke Vin, ej heller Fyrster at drikke stærk Drik, 5 at han ikke skal drikke og glemme det, som er Lov, og forvende alle elendige Folks Ret. 6 Giver stærk Drik til den, som er ved at omkomme, og Vin til den, som er beskelig bedrøvet i Sjælen, 7 at han maa drikke og glemme sin Armod og ikke mere komme sin Møje i Hu. 8 Oplad din Mund for den stumme til alle forladte Børns Ret. 9 Oplad din Mund, døm Retfærdighed, og skaf den elendige og fattige Ret! 10 Hvo finder en duelig Hustru? hun er langt mere værd end Perler. 11 Hendes Mands Hjerte forlader sig paa hende, og Indtægt mangler ikke. 12 Hun gør ham godt og intet ondt i alle sit Livs Dage. 13 Hun søger efter Uld og Hør og arbejder gerne med sine Hænder. 14 Hun er ligesom en Købmands Skibe, hun lader sit Brød komme langvejs fra. 15 Og hun staar op, medens det endnu er Nat, og giver sit Hus Mad og sine Piger deres bestemte Arbejde. 16 Hun tænker paa Agerland og faar det; af sine Hænders Frugt planter hun en Vingaard. 17 Hun omgjorder sine Lænder med Kraft og gør sine Arme stærke. 18 Hun skønner, at hendes Handel er god; hendes Lampe slukkes ikke om Natten. 19 Hun udstrækker sine Hænder til Rokken, og hendes Hænder tage fat paa Tenen. 20 Hun udbreder sin Haand til den elendige og udstrækker sine Hænder til den fattige. 21 Hun frygter ikke for sit Hus, naar der er Sne; thi hele hendes Hus er klædt i karmesinrødt Tøj. 22 Hun gør sig Tæpper; fint Linned og Purpur er hendes Klædning. 23 Hendes Mand er navnkundig i Portene, naar han sidder sammen med de ældste i Landet. 24 Hun gør kosteligt Linklæde og sælger det og bringer Købmanden Bælter til Salgs. 25 Kraft og Herlighed er hendes Klædebon, og hun ler ad den kommende Tid. 26 Hun oplader sin Mund med Visdom, og Kærligheds Lov er paa hendes Tunge. 27 Hun ser efter, hvorledes det gaar til i hendes Hns, og æder ikke Ladheds Brød. 28 Hendes Sønner staa op og prise hende; hendes Husbond roser hende ogsaa: 29 Mange Døtre forhverve Formue; men du staar over dem alle sammen. 30 Yndighed er Bedrag, og Skønhed er Forfængelighed; men en Kvinde; som frygter HERREN, hun skal roses. 31 Giver hende af hendes Hænders Frugt, og hendes Gerninger skulle prise hende i Portene.

Ho filo de miaj promesoj! 3 Ne donu al la virinoj vian forton, Nek viajn agojn al la pereigantoj de regxoj. 4 Ne al la regxoj, ho Lemuel, ne al la regxoj konvenas trinki vinon, Nek al la princoj deziri ebriigajxojn. 5 CXar drinkinte, ili povas forgesi la legxojn, Kaj ili malgxustigos la jugxon de cxiuj prematoj. 6 Donu ebriigajxon al la pereanto, Kaj vinon al tiu, kiu havas suferantan animon. 7 Li trinku, kaj forgesu sian malricxecon, Kaj li ne plu rememoru sian malfelicxon. 8 Malfermu vian busxon por senvocxulo, Por la defendo de cxiuj forlasitaj. 9 Malfermu vian busxon, por jugxi juste, Por defendi malricxulon kaj senhavulon. 10 Se iu trovis kapablan edzinon, SXia valoro estas pli granda ol perloj. 11 Fidas sxin la koro de sxia edzo, Kaj havo ne mankos. 12 SXi redonas al li bonon, sed ne malbonon, En la dauxro de sxia tuta vivo. 13 SXi sercxas lanon kaj linon, Kaj volonte laboras per siaj manoj. 14 SXi estas kiel sxipo de komercisto; De malproksime sxi alportas sian panon. 15 SXi levigxas, kiam estas ankoraux nokto, Kaj sxi disdonas mangxon al sia domanaro Kaj porciojn al siaj servantinoj; 16 SXi pensas pri kampo, kaj acxetas gxin; Per la enspezoj de sia mano sxi plantas vinbergxardenon. 17 SXi zonas siajn lumbojn per forto Kaj fortikigas siajn brakojn. 18 SXi komprenas, ke sxia komercado estas bona; SXia lumilo ne estingigxas en la nokto. 19 SXi etendas sian manon al la sxpinilo, Kaj sxiaj fingroj tenas la sxpinturnilon. 20 SXi malfermas sian manon al la malricxulo Kaj etendas siajn manojn al la senhavulo. 21 SXi ne timas la negxon por sia domo, CXar sxia tuta domanaro estas vestita per rugxa teksajxo. 22 SXi faras al si kovrojn; Delikata tolo kaj purpuro estas sxiaj vestoj. 23 SXia edzo estas konata cxe la pordego, Kie li sidas kune kun la maljunuloj de la lando. 24 SXi faras teksajxon kaj vendas, Kaj zonojn sxi donas al la komercisto. 25 Fortika kaj bela estas sxia vesto, Kaj sxi ridas pri la venonta tago. 26 Sian busxon sxi malfermas kun sagxo; Bonkora instruo estas sur sxia lango. 27 SXi kontrolas la iradon de aferoj en sia domo, Kaj sxi ne mangxas panon en senlaboreco. 28 Levigxas sxiaj filoj kaj sxin gratulas; SXia edzo sxin lauxdegas, dirante: 29 Multaj filinoj estas bravaj, Sed vi superas cxiujn. 30 CXarmeco estas trompa, kaj beleco estas vantajxo; Virino, kiu timas la Eternulon, estos glorata. 31 Donu al sxi laux la fruktoj de sxiaj manoj; Kaj sxiaj faroj sxin gloros cxe la pordegoj.
Finnish(i) 1 Kuningas Lemuelin sanat: oppi, jonka hänen äitinsä hänelle opetti: 2 Ah minun poikani, ah minun kohtuni poika, ah minun toivottu poikani! 3 Älä anna vaimon saada tavaraas, ja älä käy niillä retkillä, joissa kuninkaat turmeltuvat. 4 Ei kuningasten, o Lemuel, ei sovi kuningasten viinaa juoda, eli ruhtinasten väkeviä juotavia, 5 Ettei he joisi, ja oikeutta unohtaisi, ja vääntelisi köyhäin asiaa. 6 Antakaat väkeviä juotavia niille, jotka hukkumallnsa ovat, ja viinaa murheellisille sieluille, 7 Että he joisivat, ja unohtaisivat ahdistuksensa, ja ei enää johdattaisi mieleensä viheliäisyyttänsä. 8 Avaa suus mykän edessä, ja auta hyljättyin asiaa. 9 Avaa suus, ja tuomitse oikein, ja pelasta vaivainen ja köyhä. 10 Joka toimellisen vaimon löytää, se on kalliimpi kuin kaikkein kallimmat päärlyt: 11 Hänen miehensä sydän uskaltaa häneen: hänen elatuksensa ei puutu häneltä. 12 Hän tekee hänelle hyvää ja ei pahaa kaikkena elinaikanansa. 13 Hän harjoittaa itsensä villoissa ja pellavissa, ja tekee mielellänsä työtä käsillänsä. 14 Hän on niinkuin kauppamiehen haaksi, joka elatuksensa tuo kaukaa. 15 Hän nousee yöllä, ja antaa perheellensä ruokaa, ja piioillensa heidän osansa. 16 Hän pyytää peltoa ja saa sen, ja istutaa viinapuita kättensä hedelmästä. 17 Hän vyöttää kupeensa väkevydellä, ja vahvistaa käsivartensa. 18 Hän näkee askareensa hyödylliseksi: hänen kynttiläänsä ei sammuteta yöllä. 19 Hän ojentaa kätensä rukkiin, ja tarttuu sormillansa kehrävarteen. 20 Hän kohottaa kätensä köyhille, ja ojentaa kätensä tarvitseville. 21 Ei hän pelkää lunta huoneessansa; sillä kaikella hänen perheellänsä ovat kaksinkertaiset vaatteet. 22 Hän tekee itsellensä makausvaatteita: valkia kallis liina ja purppura ovat hänen pukunsa. 23 Hänen miehensä on tuttu porteissa, istuissansa maan vanhimpain tykönä. 24 Hän tekee kallista liinaa ja myy sitä, ja antaa vyön kauppaajalle. 25 Väkevyys ja kunnia on hänen pukunsa, ja hän nauraa seuraavaiselle ajalle. 26 Hän avaa suunsa viisaudessa, ja hänen kielensä on suloinen oppi. 27 Hän katselee kurkistellen, kuinka hänen huoneessansa kaikki asiat ovat, ja ei syö laiskuudessa leipäänsä. 28 Hänen poikansa tulevat ja ylistävät häntä autuaaksi: hänen miehensä kiittää häntä sanoen: 29 Moni tytär käyttää itsensä kauniisti; mutta sinä käyt ylitse heidän kaikkein. 30 Otollinen olla on petollisuus, ihana olla on turha; vaan vaimo, joka Herraa pelkää, ylistetään. 31 Antakaat hänelle kättensä hedelmästä, ja hänen kättensä työt kiittäkään häntä porteissa.
FinnishPR(i) 1 Lemuelin, Massan kuninkaan, sanat, joilla hänen äitinsä kasvatti häntä. 2 Mitä, poikani; mitä, kohtuni poika; mitä, lupausteni poika? 3 Älä anna voimaasi naisille, vaellustasi kuningasten turmelijatarten valtaan. 4 Ei sovi kuningasten, Lemuel, ei sovi kuningasten viiniä juoda eikä ruhtinasten kysellä: "Missä väkijuomaa?" 5 Muutoin hän juodessaan unhottaa, mitä saädetty on, ja vääntelee kaikkien kurjuuden lasten oikeuden. 6 Antakaa väkevää juomaa menehtyvälle ja viiniä murhemielisille. 7 Sellainen juokoon ja unhottakoon köyhyytensä älköönkä enää vaivaansa muistelko. 8 Avaa suusi mykän hyväksi, oikeuden hankkimiseksi kaikille sortuville. 9 Avaa suusi, tuomitse oikein, hanki kurjalle ja köyhälle oikeus. 10 Kelpo vaimon kuka löytää? Sellaisen arvo on helmiä paljon kalliimpi. 11 Hänen miehensä sydän häneen luottaa, eikä siltä mieheltä riistaa puutu. 12 Hän tekee miehellensä hyvää, ei pahaa, kaikkina elinpäivinänsä. 13 Hän puuhaa villat ja pellavat ja halullisin käsin askartelee. 14 Hän on kauppiaan laivojen kaltainen: leipänsä hän noutaa kaukaa. 15 Kun yö vielä on, hän nousee ja antaa ravinnon perheellensä, piioilleen heidän osansa. 16 Hän haluaa peltoa ja hankkii sen, istuttaa viinitarhan kättensä hedelmällä. 17 Hän voimalla vyöttää kupeensa ja käsivartensa vahvistaa. 18 Hankkeensa hän huomaa käyvän hyvin, ei sammu hänen lamppunsa yöllä. 19 Hän ojentaa kätensä kehrävarteen ja käyttelee värttinää kämmenissään. 20 Hän avaa kätensä kurjalle, ojentaa köyhälle molemmat kätensä. 21 Ei pelkää hän perheensä puolesta lunta, sillä koko hänen perheensä on puettu purppuravillaan. 22 Hän valmistaa itsellensä peitteitä; hienoa pellavaa ja punapurppuraa on hänen pukunsa. 23 Hänen miehensä on tunnettu porteissa, maanvanhinten seassa istuessansa. 24 Hän aivinapaitoja tekee ja myy, vöitä hän kauppiaalle toimittaa. 25 Vallalla ja kunnialla hän on vaatetettu, ja hän nauraa tulevalle päivälle. 26 Suunsa hän avaa viisauden sanoihin, hänen kielellään on lempeä opetus. 27 Hän tarkkaa talonsa menoa, eikä hän laiskan leipää syö. 28 Hänen poikansa nousevat ja kiittävät hänen onneansa; hänen miehensä nousee ja ylistää häntä: 29 "Paljon on naisia, toimellisia menoissaan, mutta yli niitten kaikkien kohoat sinä". 30 Pettävä on sulous, kauneus katoavainen; ylistetty se vaimo, joka Herraa pelkää! 31 Suokaa hänen nauttia kättensä hedelmiä, hänen tekonsa häntä porteissa ylistäkööt.
Haitian(i) 1 Men Pawòl wa Lemwèl, men konsèy manman l' te ba li: 2 Kisa pou m' di ou, pitit mwen, pitit ki soti nan zantray mwen? Se mwen ki te mande Bondye pou l' ban mwen ou. Kisa pou m' di ou? 3 Pa gaspiye kouray ou nan fanm. Veye zo ou ak fanm k'ap fè malè chèf yo. 4 Lemwèl monchè, yon wa pa fèt pou nan bwè bweson. Chèf pa fèt pou nan bwè gwòg. 5 Lè yo bwè konsa, yo bliye lòd yo te bay. Yo p'ap pran ka malere yo. 6 Se moun ki dekouraje ak lavi ki tonbe nan gwòg. Se moun ki gen gwo lapenn nan kè yo ki lage kò yo nan bweson. 7 Yo bwè pou yo bliye mizè yo, pou yo pa chonje lapenn yo. 8 Louvri bouch ou pale pou moun ki pa ka pale pou tèt yo. Defann kòz moun ki san sekou yo. 9 Pale pou yo. Pa fè patipri. Defann kòz malere yo ak endijan yo. 10 Sa pa fasil pou moun jwenn yon bon madanm. Lè li jwenn li, li gen plis valè pase yon boul lò. 11 Mari l' mete tout konfyans li nan li. Tout bagay ap mache byen lakay li. 12 Madanm lan p'ap janm aji mal ak mari l', l'ap pase tout lavi l' ap fè l' byen. 13 Li chache lenn mouton ak fil swa, li travay yo fè twal ak men l'. 14 Tankou bato k'ap pote machandiz, li al byen lwen chache manje mete nan kay la. 15 Solèy poko leve, li gen tan sou pye l', l'ap pare manje pou moun nan kay la. L'ap di sèvant yo sa pou yo fè. 16 Li fè lide sou yon tè, li achte l' ak lajan li fè ak men l'. Li fè jaden rezen sou li. 17 Li mare ren l', li twouse manch rad li pou l' travay. 18 Li santi zafè l' ap mache byen, li rete byen ta lannwit ap travay. 19 Li file koton, li koud rad li. 20 Li lonje men l' bay pòv. Li pran ka malere. 21 Li pa pè fredi pou moun lakay li, paske tout moun gen rad cho pou mete sou yo. 22 Li fè kouvèti lenn pou kabann yo. Tout rad li yo fèt ak twal wouj tise byen sere. 23 Mari l', se yonn nan chèf fanmi lavil la. Tout moun lavil la ap nonmen non l' an byen. 24 Madanm li fe rad pou l' vann, li fè bèl senti, li vann yo ak machann. 25 Li gen anpil kouraj, tout moun respekte l', li pa pè denmen. 26 Lè li louvri bouch li, se bon konsèy li bay. Li toujou gen bon pawòl nan bouch li. 27 Li konnen vire tounen tout moun nan kay la. Li toujou gen yon bagay l'ap fè. 28 Tout pitit li yo ap fè l' konpliman. Mari l' menm ap fè lwanj li. 29 L'ap di: Mwen konnen anpil madanm. Men ou menm, nanpwen tankou ou! 30 Bèl fanm pa di bon madanm pou sa. Bèl figi pa la pou lontan. Men, y'a fè lwanj yon fanm ki gen krentif pou Seyè a. 31 Ba li sa ki pou li a. Lè y'a wè sa l' fè, se pou tout moun fè lwanj li.
Hungarian(i) 1 Lemuel király beszédei, próféczia, melylyel tanította vala õt az anyja. 2 Mit [szóljak,] fiam? mit, én méhem gyermeke? mit, én fogadásimnak gyermeke? 3 Ne add asszonyoknak a te erõdet, és a te útaidat a királyok eltörlõinek. 4 Távol legyen a királyoktól, oh Lemuel, távol legyen a királyoktól a bornak itala; és az uralkodóktól a részegítõ ital keresése. 5 Hogy mikor iszik, el ne felejtkezzék a törvényrõl, és el ne fordítsa valamely nyomorultnak igazságát. 6 Adjátok a részegítõ italt az elveszendõnek, és a bort a keseredett szívûeknek. 7 Igyék, hogy felejtkezzék az õ szegénységérõl, és az õ nyavalyájáról ne emlékezzék meg többé. 8 Nyisd meg a te szádat a mellett, a ki néma, és azoknak dolgában, a kik adattak veszedelemre. 9 Nyisd meg a te szádat, ítélj igazságot; forgasd ügyét a szegénynek és a szûkölködõnek! 10 Derék asszonyt kicsoda találhat? Mert ennek ára sokkal felülhaladja az igazgyöngyöket. 11 Bízik ahhoz az õ férjének lelke, és annak marhája el nem fogy. 12 Jóval illeti õt és nem gonosszal, az õ életének minden napjaiban. 13 Keres gyapjat vagy lent, és megkészíti azokat kezeivel kedvvel. 14 Hasonló a kereskedõ hajókhoz, nagy messzirõl behozza az õ eledelét. 15 Felkel még éjjel, eledelt ád az õ házának, és rendel ételt az õ szolgálóleányinak. 16 Gondolkodik mezõ felõl, és megveszi azt; az õ kezeinek munkájából szõlõt plántál. 17 Az õ derekát felövezi erõvel, és megerõsíti karjait. 18 Látja, hogy hasznos az õ munkálkodása; éjjel sem alszik el az õ világa. 19 Kezeit veti a fonókerékre, és kezeivel fogja az orsót. 20 Markát megnyitja a szegénynek, és kezeit nyújtja a szûkölködõnek. 21 Nem félti az õ házanépét a hótól; mert egész házanépe karmazsinba öltözött. 22 Szõnyegeket csinál magának; patyolat és bíbor az õ öltözete. 23 Ismerik az õ férjét a kapukban, mikor ül a tartománynak véneivel. 24 Gyolcsot szõ, és eladja; és övet, melyet ád a kereskedõnek. 25 Erõ és ékesség az õ ruhája; és nevet a következõ napnak. 26 Az õ száját bölcsen nyitja meg, és kedves tanítás van nyelvén. 27 Vigyáz a házanépe dolgára, és restségnek étkét nem eszi. 28 Felkelnek az õ fiai, és boldognak mondják õt; az õ férje, és dicséri õt: 29 Sok leány munkálkodott serénységgel; de te meghaladod mindazokat! 30 Csalárd a kedvesség, és hiábavaló a szépség; a mely asszony féli az Urat, az szerez dicséretet magának! 31 Adjatok ennek az õ keze munkájának gyümölcsébõl, és dicsérjék õt a kapukban az õ cselekedetei!
Indonesian(i) 1 Inilah perkataan-perkataan yang diucapkan oleh ibunda Lemuel, raja Masa kepada anaknya, 2 "Anakku, buah hatiku, yang kulahirkan sebagai jawaban atas doaku. Apakah yang akan kukatakan kepadamu? 3 Janganlah memboroskan tenagamu atau menghamburkan kekuatanmu kepada wanita. Sudah banyak raja yang hancur karena wanita. 4 Ingatlah, Lemuel! Minum anggur dan ketagihan minuman keras, tidak pantas bagi penguasa. 5 Sebab, apabila raja minum minuman keras, ia lupa akan hukum dan tidak menghiraukan hak orang lemah. 6 Minuman keras adalah untuk mereka yang merana dan bersedih hati. 7 Mereka minum untuk melupakan kemiskinan dan kesusahan mereka. 8 Belalah mereka yang tak dapat membela dirinya sendiri. Lindungilah hak semua orang yang tak berdaya. 9 Berjuanglah untuk mereka, dan jadilah hakim yang adil. Lindungilah hak orang miskin dan orang tertindas." 10 Istri yang cakap sukar ditemukan; ia lebih berharga daripada intan berlian. 11 Suaminya tak akan kekurangan apa-apa, karena menaruh kepercayaan kepadanya. 12 Ia tak pernah berbuat jahat kepada suaminya; sepanjang umurnya ia berbuat baik kepadanya. 13 Ia rajin mengumpulkan rami dan bulu domba lalu sibuk bekerja menenunnya. 14 Dari jauh ia mendatangkan makanan, seperti yang dilakukan oleh kapal-kapal pedagang. 15 Pagi-pagi buta ia bangun untuk menyiapkan makanan bagi keluarganya, dan untuk membagi-bagikan tugas kepada pelayan-pelayannya. 16 Ia mencari sebidang tanah, lalu membelinya; ia mengusahakan sebuah kebun anggur dari pendapatannya. 17 Ia menyiapkan dirinya untuk bekerja sekuat tenaga. 18 Ia tahu bahwa segala sesuatu yang dibuatnya, menguntungkan; ia bekerja sampai jauh malam. 19 Benang dipintalnya dan kain ditenunnya. 20 Ia tidak kikir kepada yang berkekurangan; ia baik hati kepada yang memerlukan pertolongan. 21 Ia tidak khawatir apabila musim dingin tiba, karena baju panas tersedia bagi keluarganya. 22 Ia sendiri yang membuat permadaninya; pakaiannya dari kain lenan ungu yang mewah. 23 Suaminya adalah orang ternama--salah seorang dari antara para pemimpin kota. 24 Ia membuat pakaian dan ikat pinggang lalu menjualnya kepada pedagang. 25 Ia berwibawa dan dihormati; dan tidak khawatir tentang hari nanti. 26 Dengan lemah lembut ia berbicara; kata-katanya bijaksana. 27 Ia selalu rajin bekerja dan memperhatikan urusan rumah tangganya. 28 Ia dihargai oleh anak-anaknya, dan dipuji oleh suaminya. 29 "Ada banyak wanita yang baik," kata suaminya, "tetapi engkau yang paling baik dari mereka semua." 30 Paras yang manis tak dapat dipercaya, dan kecantikan akan hilang; tetapi wanita yang taat kepada TUHAN layak mendapat pujian. 31 Balaslah segala kebaikannya; ia wanita yang patut dihormati di mana-mana!
Italian(i) 1 Le parole del re Lemuel; il sermone profetico, col quale sua madre l’ammaestrò. 2 CHE, figliuol mio? Che, figliuolo del seno mio? E che, figliuolo de’ miei voti? 3 Non dar la tua forza alle donne, Nè i tuoi costumi a ciò che è per distruggere i re. 4 Ei non si conviene ai re, o Lemuel, Ei non si conviene ai re d’esser bevitori di vino, Nè a’ principi d’esser bevitori di cervogia; 5 Che talora eglino, avendo bevuto, non dimentichino gli statuti, E non pervertano il diritto di qualunque povero afflitto. 6 Date la cervogia al miserabile, E il vino a quelli che sono in amaritudine d’animo; 7 Acciocchè bevano, e dimentichino la lor miseria, E non si ricordino più de’ lor travagli. 8 Apri la tua bocca per lo mutolo, Per mantenere la ragion di tutti quelli che sono in pericolo di perire. 9 Apri la tua bocca; giudica giustamente; Fa’ diritto al povero ed al bisognoso. 10 Chi troverà una donna di valore? Il prezzo di essa avanza di gran lunga quello delle perle. 11 Il cuor del suo marito si fida in lei; Ed egli non avrà giammai mancamento di veste. 12 Ella gli fa del bene, e non del male, Tutto il tempo della sua vita. 13 Ella cerca della lana e del lino, E lavora delle sue mani con diletto. 14 Ella è come le navi de’ mercatanti: Ella fa venire il suo pane da lungi. 15 Ella si leva, mentre è ancora notte, E dà il cibo alla sua famiglia, Ed ordina alle sue serventi il lor lavoro. 16 Ella considera un campo, e l’acquista; Ella pianta una vigna del frutto delle sue mani. 17 Ella si cinge i lombi di forza, E fortifica le sue braccia. 18 Perciocchè il suo traffico è buono, ella lo gusta; La sua lampana non si spegne di notte. 19 Ella mette la mano al fuso, E le sue palme impugnano la conocchia. 20 Ella allarga la mano all’afflitto, E porge le mani al bisognoso. 21 Ella non teme della neve per la sua famiglia; Perciocchè tutta la sua famiglia è vestita a doppio. 22 Ella si fa de’ capoletti; Fin lino, e porpora sono il suo vestire. 23 Il suo marito è conosciuto nelle porte, Quando egli siede con gli anziani del paese. 24 Ella fa de’ veli, e li vende; E delle cinture, le quali ella dà a’ mercatanti. 25 Ella è vestita di gloria e d’onore; E ride del giorno a venire. 26 Ella apre la bocca con sapienza, E la legge della benignità è sopra la sua lingua. 27 Ella considera gli andamenti della sua casa, E non mangia il pan di pigrizia. 28 I suoi figliuoli si levano, e la predicano beata, Il suo marito anch’egli, e la loda; 29 Dicendo: Molte donne si son portate valorosamente; Ma tu le sopravanzi tutte. 30 La grazia è cosa fallace, e la bellezza è cosa vana; Ma la donna che ha il timor del Signore sarà quella che sarà lodata. 31 Datele del frutto delle sue mani; E lodinla le sue opere nelle porte.
ItalianRiveduta(i) 1 Parole del re Lemuel. Sentenze con le quali sua madre lo ammaestrò. 2 Che ti dirò, figlio mio? che ti dirò, figlio delle mie viscere? che ti dirò, o figlio dei miei voti? 3 Non dare il tuo vigore alle donne, né i tuoi costumi a quelle che perdono i re. 4 Non s’addice ai re, o Lemuel, non s’addice ai re bere del vino, né ai principi, bramar la cervogia: 5 che a volte, avendo bevuto, non dimentichino la legge, e non disconoscano i diritti d’ogni povero afflitto. 6 Date della cervogia a chi sta per perire, e del vino a chi ha l’anima amareggiata; 7 affinché bevano, dimentichino la loro miseria, e non si ricordin più dei loro travagli. 8 Apri la tua bocca in favore del mutolo, per sostener la causa di tutti i derelitti; 9 apri la tua bocca, giudica con giustizia, fa’ ragione al misero ed al bisognoso. 10 Elogio della donna forte e virtuosa. Una donna forte e virtuosa chi la troverà? il suo pregio sorpassa di molto quello delle perle. 11 Il cuore del suo marito confida in lei, ed egli non mancherà mai di provviste. 12 Ella gli fa del bene, e non del male, tutti i giorni della sua vita. 13 Ella si procura della lana e del lino, e lavora con diletto con le proprie mani. 14 Ella è simile alle navi dei mercanti: fa venire il suo cibo da lontano. 15 Ella si alza quando ancora è notte, distribuisce il cibo alla famiglia e il compito alle sue donne di servizio. 16 Ella posa gli occhi sopra un campo, e l’acquista; col guadagno delle sue mani pianta una vigna. 17 Ella si ricinge di forza i fianchi, e fa robuste le sue braccia. 18 Ella s’accorge che il suo lavoro rende bene; la sua lucerna non si spegne la notte. 19 Ella mette la mano alla ròcca, e le sue dita maneggiano il fuso. 20 Ella stende le palme al misero, e porge le mani al bisognoso. 21 Ella non teme la neve per la sua famiglia, perché tutta la sua famiglia è vestita di lana scarlatta. 22 Ella si fa dei tappeti, ha delle vesti di lino finissimo e di porpora. 23 Il suo marito è rispettato alle porte, quando si siede fra gli Anziani del paese. 24 Ella fa delle tuniche e le vende, e delle cinture che dà al mercante. 25 Forza e dignità sono il suo manto, ed ella si ride dell’avvenire. 26 Ella apre la bocca con sapienza, ed ha sulla lingua insegnamenti di bontà. 27 Ella sorveglia l’andamento della sua casa, e non mangia il pane di pigrizia. 28 I suoi figliuoli sorgono e la proclaman beata, e il suo marito la loda, dicendo: 29 "Molte donne si son portate valorosamente, ma tu le superi tutte"! 30 La grazia è fallace e la bellezza è cosa vana; ma la donna che teme l’Eterno è quella che sarà lodata. 31 Datele del frutto delle sue mani, e le opere sue la lodino alle porte!
Korean(i) 1 르무엘왕의 말씀한바 곧 그 어머니가 그를 훈계한 잠언이라 2 내 아들아 내가 무엇을 말할꼬 내 태에서 난 아들아 내가 무엇을 말할꼬 서원대로 얻은 아들아 내가 무엇을 말할꼬 3 네 힘을 여자들에게 쓰지 말며 왕들을 멸망시키는 일을 행치 말지어다 4 르무엘아 포도주를 마시는 것이 왕에게 마땅치 아니하고 왕에게 마땅치 아니하며 독주를 찾는 것이 주권자에게 마땅치 않도다 5 술을 마시다가 법을 잊어버리고 모든 간곤한 백성에게 공의를 굽게 할까 두려우니라 6 독주는 죽게된 자에게, 포도주는 마음에 근심하는 자에게 줄지어다 7 그는 마시고 빈궁한 것을 잊어버리겠고 다시 그 고통을 기억지 아니하리라 8 너는 벙어리와 고독한 자의 송사를 위하여 입을 열지니라 9 너는 입을 열어 공의로 재판하여 간곤한 자와 궁핍한 자를 신원할지니라 10 누가 현숙한 여인을 찾아 얻겠느냐 그 값은 진주보다 더 하니라 11 그런 자의 남편의 마음은 그를 믿나니 산업이 핍절치 아니하겠으며 12 그런 자는 살아 있는 동안에 그 남편에게 선을 행하고 악을 행치아니하느니라 13 그는 양털과 삼을 구하여 부지런히 손으로 일하며 14 상고의 배와 같아서 먼 데서 양식을 가져오며 15 밤이 새기 전에 일어나서 그 집 사람에게 식물을 나눠주며 여종에게 일을 정하여 맡기며 16 밭을 간품하여 사며 그 손으로 번 것을 가지고 포도원을 심으며 17 힘으로 허리를 묶으며 그 팔을 강하게 하며 18 자기의 무역하는 것이 이로운 줄을 깨닫고 밤에 등불을 끄지 아니하고 19 손으로 솜뭉치를 들고 손가락으로 가락을 잡으며 20 그는 간곤한 자에게 손을 펴며 궁핍한 자를 위하여 손을 내밀며 21 그 집 사람들은 다 홍색 옷을 입었으므로 눈이 와도 그는 집 사람을 위하여 두려워하지 아니하며 22 그는 자기를 위하여 아름다운 방석을 지으며 세마포와 자색 옷을 입으며 23 그 남편은 그 땅의 장로로 더불어 성문에 앉으며 사람의 아는 바가 되며 24 그는 베로 옷을 지어 팔며 띠를 만들어 상고에게 맡기며 25 능력과 존귀로 옷을 삼고 후일을 웃으며 26 입을 열어 지혜를 베풀며 그 혀로 인애의 법을 말하며 27 그 집안 일을 보살피고 게을리 얻은 양식을 먹지 아니하나니 28 그 자식들은 일어나 사례하며 그 남편은 칭찬하기를 29 덕행 있는 여자가 많으나 그대는 여러 여자보다 뛰어난다 하느니라 30 고운 것도 거짓되고 아름다운 것도 헛되나 오직 여호와를 경외하는 여자는 칭찬을 받을 것이라 31 그 손의 열매가 그에게로 돌아갈 것이요 그 행한 일을 인하여 성문에서 칭찬을 받으리라
Lithuanian(i) 1 Karaliaus Lemuelio žodžiai, kuriais jį auklėjo motina: 2 “Ką, mano sūnau? Ką, mano įsčių sūnau? Ką, mano įžadų sūnau? 3 Neatiduok savo jėgų moterims ir savo kelių toms, kurios pražudo karalius. 4 Lemueli, ne karaliams gerti vyną, ne kunigaikščiams stiprius gėrimus, 5 kad prisigėrę jie nepamirštų įstatymo ir neiškraipytų teisingumo prispaustiesiems. 6 Duok stiprius gėrimus nelaimingiems ir vyną liūdinčioms sieloms. 7 Tegul jie pasigeria ir užmiršta savo vargus ir skurdą. 8 Atverk už nebylį savo burną byloje tų, kurie pasmerkti pražūčiai. 9 Teisk teisingai ir apgink beturčių ir vargšų teises. 10 Kas gali surasti gerą moterį? Ji yra daug vertingesnė už perlus. 11 Vyro širdis visiškai pasitiki ja ir jo namuose netrūks pelno. 12 Visą gyvenimą ji daro vyrui tik gera, o ne pikta. 13 Ji ieško vilnos ir lino, noriai dirba savo rankomis. 14 Ji lyg prekybininkų laivas parūpina maistą iš toli. 15 Ji keliasi anksti rytą, paruošia maisto šeimai ir paskiria tarnaitėms darbą. 16 Ji apžiūri lauką, jį nuperka ir savo rankų pelnu užveisia vynuogyną. 17 Ji susijuosia jėga, sustiprina savo rankas. 18 Ji supranta, kad jos darbas vertingas; jos žiburys negęsta naktį. 19 Jos pirštai paima verpstę ir jos rankos dirba. 20 Ji ištiesia ranką išalkusiam ir beturčiui. 21 Ji nebijo šalčių, nes visi jos namiškiai yra aprengti vilnoniais rūbais. 22 Ji pasidaro antklodžių, plona drobė ir purpuras­jos drabužiai. 23 Jos vyras yra žinomas vartuose, kai sėdi su krašto vyresniaisiais. 24 Ji audžia plonų drobių ir parduoda, pristato juostų pirkliams. 25 Ji, apsirengusi stiprybe ir grožiu, linksmai žiūri į ateitį. 26 Ji kalba išmintingai ir ant jos liežuvio švelnus pamokymas. 27 Ji prižiūri savo namus ir nevalgo tinginio duonos. 28 Jos vaikai pakyla ir vadina ją palaiminta ir jos vyras giria ją: 29 ‘Yra daug gerų moterų, bet tu pranoksti jas visas!’ 30 Žavumas apgauna ir grožis praeina, bet moteris, bijanti Dievo, bus giriama. 31 Duok jai jos rankų vaisių, ir jos darbai tegul giria ją vartuose”.
PBG(i) 1 Te są słowa Lemuela króla, i zebranie mów, któremi go ćwiczyła matka jego. 2 Cóż rzekę, synu mój? cóż rzekę, synu żywota mego? i cóż rzekę, synu ślubów moich? 3 Nie dawaj niewiastom siły twojej, ani dróg twoich tym, którzy do zginienia królów przywodzą. 4 Nie królom, o Lemuelu! nie królom należy pić wino, a nie panom bawić się napojem mocnym; 5 By snać pijąc nie zapomniał na ustawy, a nie odmienił spraw wszystkich ludzi uciśnionych. 6 Dajcie napój mocny ginącemu, a wino tym, którzy są ducha sfrasowanego. 7 Niech się napije, a zapomni ubóstwa swego, a na utrapienie swoje niech więcej nie wspomni. 8 Otwórz usta swe za niemym w sprawie wszystkich osądzonych na śmierć. 9 Otwórz usta swe, sądź sprawiedliwie, a podejmij się sprawy ubogiego i nędznego. 10 Któż znajdzie niewiastę stateczną, gdyż nad perły daleko większa jest cena jej? 11 Serce męża jej ufa jej, a na korzyściach schodzić mu nie będzie. 12 Dobrze mu czyni,a nie źle, po wszystkie dni żywota swego. 13 Szuka wełny i lnu, a pracuje ochotnie rękami swemi. 14 Podobna jest okrętom kupieckim; z daleka przywodzi żywność swoję. 15 I wstaje bardzo rano, a daje pokarm czeladzi swej, a obrok słuszny dziewkom swym. 16 Obmyśla rolę, i ujmuje ją; z zarobku rąk swoich szczepi winnice. 17 Przepasuje mocą biodra swe, a posila ramiona swoje. 18 Doświadcza, że jest dobra skrzętność jej, a nie gaśnie w nocy pochodnia jej. 19 Ręce swoje obraca do kądzieli, a palcami swemi trzyma wrzeciono. 20 Rękę swą otwiera ubogiemu, a ręce swoje wyciąga ku nędznemu. 21 Nie boi się o czeladź swoję czasu śniegu; albowiem wszystka czeladź jej obłoczy się w szatę dwoistą. 22 Kobierce sobie robi; płótno subtelne i szarłat jest odzieniem jej. 23 Znaczny jest w bramach mąż jej, gdy siedzi między starszymi ziemi. 24 Płótno robi, i sprzedaje, także pasy sprzedaje kupcowi. 25 Moc i przystojność jest odzieniem jej; nie frasuje się o czasy przyszłe. 26 Mądrze otwiera usta swe, a nauka miłosierdzia jest na języku jej. 27 Dogląda rządu w domu swym, a chleba próżnując nie je. 28 Powstawszy synowie jej błogosławią jej; także i mąż jej chwali ją, 29 Mówiąc: Wiele niewiast grzecznie sobie poczynały; ale je ty przechodzisz wszystkie. 30 Omylna jest wdzięczność, i marna piękność; ale niewiasta, która się Pana boi, ta pochwały godna. 31 Dajcie jej z owocu ręku jej, a niechaj ją chwalą w bramach uczynki jej.
Portuguese(i) 1 As palavras do rei Lemuel, rei de Massá, que lhe ensinou sua mãe. 2 Que te direi, filho meu? e que te direi, ó filho do meu ventre? e que te direi, ó filho dos meus votos? 3 Não dês às mulheres a tua força, nem os teus caminhos às que destroem os reis. 4 Não é dos reis, ó Lemuel, não é dos reis beber vinho, nem dos príncipes desejar bebida forte; 5 para que não bebam, e se esqueçam da lei, e pervertam o direito de quem anda aflito. 6 Dai bebida forte ao que está para perecer, e o vinho ao que está em amargura de espírito. 7 Bebam e se esqueçam da sua pobreza, e da sua miséria não se lembrem mais. 8 Abre a tua boca a favor do mudo, a favor do direito de todos os desamparados. 9 Abre a tua boca; julga rectamente, e faz justiça aos pobres e aos necessitados. 10 Alef. Mulher virtuosa, quem a pode achar? Pois o seu valor muito excede ao de jóias preciosas. 11 Bet. O coração do seu marido confia nela, e não lhe haverá falta de lucro. 12 Guímel. Ela lhe faz bem, e não mal, todos os dias da sua vida. 13 Dalet. Ela busca lã e linho, e trabalha de boa vontade com as mãos. 14 Hé. É como os navios do negociante; de longe traz o seu pão. 15 Vau. E quando ainda está escuro, ela se levanta, e dá mantimento à sua casa, e a tarefa às suas servas. 16 Zain. Considera um campo, e compra-o; planta uma vinha com o fruto de suas mãos. 17 Hete. Cinge os seus lombos de força, e fortalece os seus braços. 18 Tete. Prova e vê que é boa a sua mercadoria; e a sua lâmpada não se apaga de noite. 19 Iode. Estende as mãos ao fuso, e as suas mãos pegam na roca. 20 Caf. Abre a mão para o pobre; sim, ao necessitado estende as suas mãos. 21 Lamed. Não tem medo da neve pela sua família; pois todos os da sua casa estão vestidos de escarlate. 22 Mem. Faz para si cobertas; de linho fino e de púrpura é o seu vestido. 23 Nun. Conhece-se o seu marido nas portas, quando se assenta entre os anciãos da terra. 24 Samec. Faz vestidos de linho, e vende-os, e entrega cintas aos mercadores. 25 Ain. A força e a dignidade são os seus vestidos; e ri-se do tempo vindouro. 26 Pê. Abre a sua boca com sabedoria, e o ensino da benevolência está na sua língua. 27 Tsadé. Olha pelo governo de sua casa, e não come o pão da preguiça. 28 Cof. Levantam-se seus filhos, e lhe chamam bem-aventurada, como também seu marido, que a louva, dizendo: 29 Resh. Muitas mulheres têm procedido virtuosamente, mas tu a todas sobrepujas. 30 Shin. Enganosa é a graça, e vã é a formosura; mas a mulher que teme ao Senhor, essa será louvada. 31 Tau. Dai-lhe do fruto das suas mãos, e louvem-na nas portas as suas obras.
Romanian(i) 1 Cuvintele împăratului Lemuel. Învăţătura pe care i -o dădea mamă-sa. 2 Ce să-ţi spun, fiule? Ce să-ţi spun fiul trupului meu? Ce să-ţi spun, fiule, rodul juruinţelor mele? 3 Nu-ţi da femeilor vlaga, şi desmierdările tale celor ce pierd pe împăraţi. 4 Nu se cade împăraţilor, Lemuele, nu se cade împăraţilor să bea vin, nici voivozilor să umble după băuturi tari; 5 ca nu cumva, bînd, să uite legea, şi să calce drepturile tuturor celor nenorociţi. 6 Daţi băuturi tari celui ce piere, şi vin, celui cu sufletul amărît; 7 ca să bea să-şi uite sărăcia, şi să nu-şi mai aducă aminte de necazurile lui. - 8 Deschide-ţi gura pentru cel mut, pentru pricina tuturor celor părăsiţi! 9 Deschide-ţi gura, judecă cu dreptate, şi apără pe cel nenorocit şi pe cel lipsit. 10 Cine poate găsi o femeie cinstită? Ea este mai de preţ decît mărgăritarele. 11 Inima bărbatului se încrede în ea, şi nu duce lipsă de venituri. 12 Ea îi face bine, şi nu rău, în toate zilele vieţii sale. 13 Ea face rost de lînă şi de in, şi lucrează cu mîni harnice. 14 Ea este ca o corabie de negoţ; de departe îşi aduce pînea. 15 Ea se scoală cînd este încă noapte, şi dă hrană casei sale, şi împarte lucrul de peste zi slujnicelor sale. 16 Se gîndeşte la un ogor, şi -l cumpără; din rodul muncii ei sădeşte o vie. - 17 Ea îşi încinge mijlocul cu putere, şi îşi oţeleşte braţele. 18 Vede că munca îi merge bine, lumina ei nu se stinge noaptea. 19 Ea pune mîna pe furcă, şi degetele ei ţin fusul. 20 Ea îşi întinde mîna către cel nenorocit, îşi întinde braţul către cel lipsit. 21 Nu se teme de zăpadă pentru casa ei, căci toată casa ei este îmbrăcată cu cărmiziu. 22 Ea îşi face învelitori, are haine de in supţire şi purpură. 23 Bărbatul ei este bine văzut la porţi, cînd şade cu bătrînii ţării. 24 Ea face cămăşi, şi le vinde, şi dă cingători negustorului. 25 Ea este îmbrăcată cu tărie şi slavă, şi rîde de ziua de mîne. 26 Ea deschide gura cu înţelepciune, şi învăţături plăcute îi sînt pe limbă. 27 Ea veghează asupra celor ce se petrec în casa ei, şi nu mănîncă pînea lenevirii. 28 Fiii ei se scoală, şi o numesc fericită; bărbatul ei se scoală, şi -i aduce laude zicînd: 29 ,,Multe fete au o purtare cinstită, dar tu le întreci pe toate.`` 30 Desmerdările sînt înşelătoare, şi frumuseţa este deşartă, dar femeia care se teme de Domnul va fi lăudată. 31 Răsplătiţi -o cu rodul muncii ei, şi faptele ei s'o laude la porţile cetăţii
Ukrainian(i) 1 Слова Лемуїла, царя Масси, що ними навчала його його мати: 2 Що, сину мій, і що, сину утроби моєї, і що, сину обітниць моїх? 3 Не давай жінкам сили своєї, ні доріг своїх для руйнувальниць царів! 4 Не царям, Лемуїле, вино, не царям, і напій той п'янкий не князям, 5 щоб не впився він та не забув про Закона, і щоб не змінив для всіх гноблених права! 6 Дайте напою п'янкого тому, хто гине, а вина гіркодухим: 7 він вип'є й забуде за бідність свою, і муки своєї вже не пам'ятатиме! 8 Відкривай свої уста немові, для суда всім нещасним. 9 Відкривай свої уста, й суди справедливо, і правосуддя зроби для убогого та для нужденного. 10 Хто жінку чеснотну знайде? а ціна її більша від перел: 11 довіряє їй серце її чоловіка, і йому не забракне прибутку! 12 Вона чинить для нього добро, а не зло, по всі дні свого життя. 13 Шукає вона вовни й льону, і робить охоче своїми руками. 14 Вона, немов кораблі ті купецькі, здалека спроваджує хліб свій. 15 І встане вона ще вночі, і видасть для дому свого поживу, а порядок служницям своїм. 16 Про поле вона намишляла, і його набула, із плоду долоней своїх засадила вона виноградника. 17 Вона підперізує силою стегна свої та зміцняє рамена свої. 18 Вона розуміє, що добра робота її, і світильник її не погасне вночі. 19 Вона руки свої простягає до прядки, а долоні її веретено тримають. 20 Долоню свою відкриває для вбогого, а руки свої простягає до бідного. 21 Холоду в домі своїм не боїться вона, бо подвійно одягнений ввесь її дім. 22 Килими поробила собі, віссон та кармазин убрання її. 23 Чоловік її знаний при брамах, як сидить він із старшими краю. 24 Тонку туніку робить вона й продає, і купцеві дає пояси. 25 Сила та пишність одежа її, і сміється вона до прийдещнього дня. 26 Свої уста вона відкриває на мудрість, і милостива наука їй на язиці. 27 Доглядає вона ходи дому свого, і хліба з лінивства не їсть. 28 Устають її діти, і хвалять її, чоловік її й він похваляє її: 29 Багато було тих чеснотних дочок, та ти їх усіх перевищила! 30 Краса то омана, а врода марнота, жінка ж богобоязна вона буде хвалена! 31 Дайте їй з плоду рук її, і нехай її вчинки її вихваляють при брамах!
