God is good.
Good women
are from God.
A good woman is hard to find,
and worth far more than diamonds.
Her husband trusts her without reserve,
and never has reason to regret it.
Never spiteful, she treats him
generously all her life long.
13.
She shops around for the best yarns
and cottons, and enjoys knitting and sewing.
14.
She's like a trading ship
that sails to faraway places
and brings back exotic surprises.
15.
She's up before dawn,
preparing breakfast for her family
and organizing her day.
16.
She looks over a field and buys it,
, with money she's put aside,
she plants a garden.
17.
First thing in the morning,
she dresses for work,
rolls up her sleeves,
eager to get started.
18.
She senses the worth of her work,
is in no hurry to call it
quits for the day.
19.
She's skilled in the crafts
of home and hearth,
diligent in homemaking.
20.
She's quick to assist anyone in need,
reaches out to help the poor.
21.
She doesn't worry about her family
when it snows; their winter clothes
are all mended and ready to wear.
22.
She makes her own clothing,
and dresses in colorful linens and silks.
23.
Her husband is greatly respected
he deliberates with the city fathers.
24.
She designs gowns and sells them,
brings the sweaters she knits
to the dress shops.
25.
Her clothes are well-made and elegant,
and she always faces tomorrow with a smile.
26.
When she speaks
she has something worthwhile to say,
and she always says it kindly.
27.
She keeps an eye on everyone in her household,
and keeps them all busy and productive.
28.
Her children respect and bless her;
her husband joins in with words of praise:
29.
"Many women have done wonderful things,
but you've outclassed them all!"
30.
Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades.
The woman to be admired and praised
is the woman who lives
in the Love-of-God.
31.
Give her everything she deserves!
Festoon her life with praises!
