She considers a field and buys it; From her profits she plants a vineyard.
17
She girds herself with strength, And strengthens her arms.
18
She perceives that her merchandise is good, And her lamp does not go out by night.
19
She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her hand holds the spindle.
20
She extends her hand to the poor, Yes, she reaches out her hands to the needy.
21
She is not afraid of snow for her household, For all her household is clothed with scarlet.
22
She makes tapestry for herself; Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23
Her husband is known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land.
24
She makes linen garments and sells them, And supplies sashes for the merchants.
25
Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come.
26
She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness.
