PROVERBS 31:10-31
A wife of noble character who can find? She is worth far more than
rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of
value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her
life. She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands. She is
like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar. She gets up while it
is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant
girls. She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a
vineyard. She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong
for her tasks. She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night. In her hand she holds the
distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers. She opens her arms to
the poor and extends her hands to the needy. When it snows, she
has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet. She
makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple. Her
husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders
of the land. She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the
merchants with sashes. She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can
laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful
instruction is on her tongue. She watches over the affairs of her
household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and
call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all." Charm is deceptive, and beauty is
fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her the reward
she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
"I will call her blessed... for the LORD has made all her ways prosper! She speaks truth and life! She can always be trusted! She is honoured in the sight of man & God! She has loved without condition... I will love her forever!"
love... your son
