Proverbs 31
World English Bible (WEB)
25 Ref Strength and dignity are her clothing. She laughs at the time to come.
26 Ref She opens her mouth with wisdom. Faithful instruction is on her tongue.
27 Ref She looks well to the ways of her household, And doesn't eat the bread of idleness.
28 Ref Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her:
29 Ref "Many women do noble things, But you excel them all."
30 Ref Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; But a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised.
31 Ref Give her of the fruit of her hands! Let her works praise her in the gates!

29 Ref `Many `are' the daughters who have done worthily, Thou hast gone up above them all.'
