    10The Wife of Noble Character Who can find a wife of noble character? For her value is far more than rubies.

    11Her husband’s heart has trusted her, and he does not lack the dividends.

    12She has rewarded him with good and not harm all the days of her life.

    13She sought out wool and flax, then worked happily with her hands.

    14She was like the merchant ships; she would bring in her food from afar.

    15Then she rose while it was still night, and provided food for her household and a portion to her female servants.

    16She considered a field and bought it; from her own income she planted a vineyard.

    17She clothed herself in might, and she strengthened her arms.

    18She perceived that her merchandise was good. Her lamp would not go out in the night.

    19She extended her hands to the spool, and her hands grasped the spindle.

    20She opened her hand to the poor, and extended her hands to the needy.

    21She would not fear for her household in winter, because all of her household were clothed with scarlet,

    22because she had made coverings for herself; and because her clothing was fine linen and purple.

    24She made linen garments then sold them, and traded belts to the merchants;

    25her clothing was strong and splendid; and she laughed at the time to come.

    26She has opened her mouth with wisdom, with loving instruction on her tongue.

    27Watching over the ways of her household, she would not eat the bread of idleness.
