Proverbs, Chapter 31

1 The words of King Lemuel, thea Or burdenoracle which his mother taught him:
2 What, O my son?
And what, O son of my womb?
And what, O son of my vows?
3 Do not give your strength to women,
Or your ways to that which destroys kings.
4 It is not for kings, O Lemuel,
It is not for kings to drink wine,
Or for rulers to desire strong drink,
5 For they will drink and forget what is decreed,
And pervert theb Lit judgmentrights of all thec Lit sons of afflictionafflicted.
6 Give strong drink to him who is perishing,
And wine to himd Lit bitter of soulwhose life is bitter.
7 Let him drink and forget his poverty
And remember his trouble no more.
8 Open your mouth for the mute,
For thee Lit judgmentrights of all thef Lit sons of passing awayunfortunate.
9 Open your mouth, judge righteously,
Andg Lit judge the afflicteddefend the rights of the afflicted and needy.
10 An excellent wife, who can find?
For her worth is far above jewels.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her,
And he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good and not evil
All the days of her life.
13 She looks for wool and flax
And works with herh Lit palmshandsi Or willinglyin delight.
14 She is like merchant ships;
She brings her food from afar.
15 She rises also while it is still night
And gives food to her household
Andj Or prescribed tasksportions to her maidens.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
Fromk Lit the fruit of her palmsher earnings she plants a vineyard.
17 She girdsl Lit her loinsherself with strength
And makes her arms strong.
18 She senses that her gain is good;
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19 She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
And herm Lit palmshands grasp the spindle.
20 Shen Lit spreads out her palmextends her hand to the poor,
And she stretches out 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 makes coverings for herself;
Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23 Her husband is known in the gates,
When he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them,
Ando Lit givessupplies belts to thep Lit Canaanitetradesmen.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing,
And she smiles at theq Lit latter daysfuture.
26 She opens her mouth in wisdom,
And ther Or lawteaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household,
And does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children rise up and bless her;
Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
29 “Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all.”
30 Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman whos Or reverencesfears the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give her thet Lit fruitproduct of her hands,
And let her works praise her in the gates.
