Description of a Worthy Woman
10 An 7excellent wife, who can find ? For her worth is far 8above jewels. 11 The heart of her husband trusts in her, And he will have no lack of gain. 12 She does him good and not evil All the days of her life. 13 She looks for wool and flax And works with her ghands hin delight. 14 She is like 9merchant ships ; She brings her food from afar. 15 She 10rises also while it is still night And 11gives food to her household And iportions to her maidens.New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, California.
