She is worth far more than rubies. <br />
<strong>11</strong> Her husband has full confidence in her <br />
and lacks nothing of value. <br />
<strong>12</strong> She brings him good, not harm, <br />
all the days of her life. <br />
<strong>13</strong> She selects wool and flax <br />
and works with eager hands. <br />
<strong>14</strong> She is like the merchant ships, <br />
bringing her food from afar. <br />
<strong>15</strong> She gets up while it is still night; <br />
she provides food for her family <br />
and portions for her female servants. <br />
<strong>16</strong> She considers a field and buys it; <br />
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. <br />
<strong>17</strong> She sets about her work vigorously; <br />
her arms are strong for her tasks. <br />
<strong>18</strong> She sees that her trading is profitable, <br />
and her lamp does not go out at night. <br />
<strong>19</strong> In her hand she holds the distaff <br />
and grasps the spindle with her fingers. <br />
<strong>20</strong> She opens her arms to the poor <br />
and extends her hands to the needy. <br />
<strong>21</strong> When it snows, she has no fear for her household; <br />
for all of them are clothed in scarlet. <br />
<strong>22</strong> She makes coverings for her bed; <br />
she is clothed in fine linen and purple. <br />
<strong>23</strong> Her husband is respected at the city gate, <br />
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land. <br />
<strong>24</strong> She makes linen garments and sells them, <br />
and supplies the merchants with sashes. <br />
<strong>25</strong> She is clothed with strength and dignity; <br />
she can laugh at the days to come. <br />
<strong>26</strong> She speaks with wisdom, <br />
and faithful instruction is on her tongue. <br />
<strong>27</strong> She watches over the affairs of her household <br />
and does not eat the bread of idleness. <br />
<strong>28</strong> Her children arise and call her blessed; <br />
her husband also, and he praises her: <br />
<strong>29</strong> “Many women do noble things, <br />
but you surpass them all.” <br />
<strong>30</strong> Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; <br />
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. <br />
<strong>31</strong> Honor her for all that her hands have done, <br />
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.The Daily Wifehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14496782783281871871noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-470031217269648273.post-57468121396979932362011-05-07T10:44:00.000-07:002011-05-07T10:44:17.826-07:00Proverbs 31:10-31 <sup class="versenum" id="en-NIV-17295"><strong><span style="font-size: x-small;">10</span></strong></sup> <sup class="footnote" value="[<a href="#fen-NIV-17295b" title="See footnote b">b</a>]"><span style="font-size: x-small;">[</span><a cmimpressionsent="1" href="http://www.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=470031217269648273#fen-NIV-17295b" title="See footnote b"><span style="font-size: x-small;">b</span></a><span style="font-size: x-small;">]</span></sup>A wife of noble character who can find? <br />
