Who can find a Virtuous Woman
Proverbs 31
10 Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
11 The
heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of
spoil.
12
She
will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
13
She
seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
14
She
is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
15 She
riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a
portion to her maidens.
16 She
considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a
vineyard.
17
She
girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
18 She
perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by
night.
19
She
layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
20 She
stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the
needy.
21 She
is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are
clothed with scarlet.
22
She
maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
23 Her
husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24
She
maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the
merchant.
25
Strength
and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She
openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She
looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of
idleness.
28 Her
children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he
praiseth her.
29
Many
daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30 Favour
is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that
feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give
her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
The big question is........... is any man willing to be virtuous like the woman described above?
