Proverbs 31:10-12; Proverbs 31:25-30 (New Revised Standard w/ Apocrypha)
10
A capable wife who can find? She is far more precious than 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 harm, all the days of her life.
25
Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.
26
She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27
She looks well to the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness.
28
Her children rise up and call her happy; her husband too, and he praises her:
29
"Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all."
30
Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
