An excellent wife, who can find?
For her worth is far above pearls.
•••
Her children rise up and bless her;
As for her husband, he also praises her, saying:
•••
“Many daughters have done excellently,
But you have gone above them all.”
•••
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised.
•••
Give to her from the fruit of her hands,
And let her works praise her in the gates.
