Proverbs 31 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷
13 She hath sought wool and flax, and hath wrought by the counsel of her hands.
14 She is become as a merchant's ship, bringing her bread from far.
15 And she hath risen in the night, and given prey to her household, and meats to her handmaids.
16 She hath viewed a field, and bought it, of 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 extinguished in the night.
19 She hath put 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 palms to the poor.
21 She shall not fear for her house in the colds of snow: for all her household are clothed with double.
22 Tapestry clothing she hath made to herself: silk and purple is her garment.
23 Her husband is noble in the gates, when he shall sit with the senators of the land.
24 She made sindon, and sold it, and delivered a girdle to the Chanaaneite.
25 Strength and beauty is her garment, and she shall laugh in the later day.
26 She hath opened her mouth to wisdom, and the law of clemency is in her tongue.
27 She hath considered the paths of her house, and hath not eaten her bread idle.
