The heart of her husband trusts in her,
She does him good, and not harm,
She seeks wool and flax,
She is like the ships of the merchant,
She rises while it is still night
She considers a field and buys it;
She girds herself with strength,
She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.
She puts her hands to the distaff,
She opens her hand to the poor,
She is not afraid for her household when it snows,
She makes herself coverings;
Her husband is known in the city gates,
She makes linen garments and sells them;
Strength and dignity are her clothing,
She opens her mouth with wisdom,
She looks well to the ways of her household,
Her children rise up and call her happy;
Many women have done excellently,
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain,
Give her a share in the fruit of her hands,
