12. She brings him good and not troubleall the days of her life.

13. She seeks out wool and flax;she works joyfully with her hands.

14. She is like a fleet of merchant ships,bringing food from a distance.

15. She gets up while it is still night,providing food for her household,even some for her female servants.

16. She surveys a field and acquires it;from her own resources, she plants a vineyard.

17. She works energetically;her arms are powerful.

18. She realizes that her trading is successful;she doesn’t put out her lamp at night.

19. She puts her hands to the spindle;her palms grasp the whorl.

20. She reaches out to the needy;she stretches out her hands to the poor.
