16She views a farm, and buys it: and with the fruit of her hands she plants a possession.
17She strongly girds her loins, and strengthens her arms for work.
18And she finds by experience that working is good; and her candle goes not out all night.
19She reaches forth her arms to needful works, and applies her hands to the spindle.
20And she opens her hands to the needy, and reaches out fruit to the poor.
21Her husband is not anxious about those at home when he tarries anywhere abroad: for all her household are clothed.
22She makes for her husband clothes of double texture, and garments for herself of fine linen and scarlet.
23And her husband becomes a distinguished person in the gates, when he sits in council with the old inhabitants of the land.
24She makes fine linens, and sells girdles to the Chananites: she opens her mouth heedfully and with propriety, and controls her tongue.
25She puts on strength and honour; and rejoices in the last days.
26The ways of her household are careful, and she eats not the bread of idleness.
27But she opens her mouth wisely, and according to law.
