WHO CAN FIND A VIRTUOUS WOMAN FOR HER PRICE IS FAR ABOVE RUBIES. THE HEART OF HER HUSBAND DOETH SAFELY TRUST IN HER, SO THAT HE SHALL HAVE NO NEED OF SPOIL. SHE WILL DO HIM GOOD AND NOT EVIL ALL THE DAYS OF HER LIFE. SHE SEEKETH WOOL, AND FLAX, AND WORKETH WILLINGLY WITH HER HANDS. SHE IS LIKE THE MERCHANTS' SHIPS, SHE BRINGETH HER FOOD FROM AFAR. SHE RISETH ALSO WHILE YET IT IS NIGHT AND GIVETH MEAT TO HER HOUSEHOLD AND A PORTION TO HER MAIDENS. SHE CONSIDERETH A FIELD AND BUYETH IT WITH THE FRUIT OF HER HANDS SHE PLANTED A VINEYARD. SHE GIRETH HER LOINS WITH STRENGTH AND STRENGTHENETH HER ARMS. SHE PERCIEVETH THAT HER MERCHANDISE IS GOOD, HER CANDLE GOETH NOT OUT BY NIGHT. SHE LAYETH HER HANDS TO THE SPINDLE AND HER HANDS HOLD THE DISTAFF. SHE STRETCHETH OUT HER HANDS TO THE POOR, YEA, SHE REACHETH FORTH HER HANDS TO THE NEEDY. SHE IS NOT AFRAID OF THE SNOW FOR HER HOUSEHOLD, FOR HER HOUSEHOLD ARE CLOTHED WITH SCARLET
