Proverbs

¹²She doeth him good and not evil All the days of her life. ¹³She seeketh wool and flax, And worketh willingly with her hands. ¹⁴She is like the merchant-ships; She bringeth her bread from afar. ¹⁵She riseth also while it is yet night, And giveth food to her household, And their task 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 profitable: Her lamp goeth not out by night.
