Proverbs 31
- 1 The words of king Lamuel. The vision wherewith his mother instructed him.
- 2 What, O my beloved, what, O the beloved of my womb, what, O the beloved of my vows?
- 3 Give not thy substance to women, and thy riches to destroy kings.
- 4 Give not to kings, O Lamuel, give not wine to kings: because there is no secret where drunkenness reigneth:
- 5 And lest they drink and forget judgments, and pervert the cause of the children of the poor.
- 6 Give strong drink to them that are sad; and wine to them that are grieved in mind:
- 7 Let them drink, and forget their want, and remember their sorrow no more.
- 8 Open thy mouth for the dumb, and for the causes of all the children that pass.
- 9 Open thy mouth, decree that which is just, and do justice to the needy and poor.
- 10 Who shall find a valiant woman? far, and from the uttermost coasts is the price of her.
- 11 The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no need of spoils.
- 12 She will render him good, and not evil all the days of her life.
- 13 She hath sought wool and flax, and hath wrought by the counsel of her hands.
- 14 She is like the merchant's ship, she bringeth her bread from afar.
- 15 And she hath risen in the night, and given a prey to her household, and victuals to her maidens.
- 16 She hath considered a field, and bought it: with the fruit of her hands she hath planted a vineyard.
- 17 She hath girded her loins with strength, and hath strengthened her arm.
- 18 She hath tasted, and seen that her traffic is good: her lamp shall not be put out in the night.
- 19 She hath put out her hand to strong things, and her fingers have taken hold of the spindle.
- 20 She hath opened her hand to the needy, and stretched out her hands to the poor.
- 21 She shall not fear for her house in the cold of snow: for all her domestics are clothed with double garments.
- 22 She hath made for herself clothing of tapestry: fine linen, and purple, is her covering.
- 23 Her husband is honourable in the gates, when he sitteth among the senators of the land.
- 24 She made fine linen, and sold it, and delivered a girdle to the Chanaanite.
- 25 Strength and beauty are her clothing, and she shall laugh in the latter day.
- 26 She hath opened her mouth to wisdom, and the law of clemency is on her tongue.
- 27 She hath looked well on the paths of her house, and hath not eaten her bread idle.
- 28 Her children rose up, and called her blessed: her husband, and he praised her.
- 29 Many daughters have gathered together riches: thou hast surpassed them all.
- 30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: the woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
- 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands: and let her works praise her in the gates.
