¹⁰ A worthy woman who can find? For her price is far above rubies.

¹⁴ House and riches are an inheritance from fathers; But a prudent wife is from Jehovah.

⁴ A worthy woman is the crown of her husband; But she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.

²² Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, And obtaineth favor of Jehovah.

¹¹ And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou sayest; for all the city of my people doth know that thou art a worthy woman.

¹⁵ She is more precious than rubies: And none of the things thou canst desire are to be compared unto her.

¹¹ For wisdom is better than rubies; And all the things that may be desired are not to be compared unto it.

²⁵ Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;

²⁶ that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word,

²⁷ that he might present the church to himself a glorious `church', not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

²⁸ Even so ought husbands also to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself:

²⁹ for no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as Christ also the church;

³⁰ because we are members of his body.

³¹ For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh.

³² This mystery is great: but I speak in regard of Christ and of the church.

³³ Nevertheless do ye also severally love each one his own wife even as himself; and `let' the wife `see' that she fear her husband.

¹⁸ No mention shall be made of coral or of crystal: Yea, the price of wisdom is above rubies.

²⁸ which my soul still seeketh, but I have not found: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.

⁸ There are threescore queens, and fourscore concubines, And virgins without number.

⁹ My dove, my undefiled, is `but' one; She is the only one of her mother; She is the choice one of her that bare her. The daughters saw her, and called her blessed; `Yea', the queens and the concubines, and they praised her.

¹⁵ There is gold, and abundance of rubies; But the lips of knowledge are a precious jewel.
