14She is like the merchant-ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
15She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth food to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
16She considereth a field, and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
17She girdeth her loins with strength, and maketh strong her arms.
18She perceiveth that her merchandise is good; her lamp goeth not out by night.
19She layeth her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle.
20She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
21She is not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22She maketh for herself coverlets; her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24She maketh linen garments and selleth them; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
25Strength and dignity are her clothing; and she laugheth at the time to come.
26She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and the law of kindness is on her tongue.
27She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
