Proverbs 31:11-20 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

11. The heart of her husband trusts in her, and gain he will not lack.

12. She does him good, but not harm all the days of her life.

13. She seeks wool and flax, and she works with the diligence of her hands.

14. She is like the ships of a merchant; from far off she brings her food;

15. And she arises while it is still night, and gives food to her household, and tasks to her servant girls.

16. She considers a field and buys it, from the fruit of her hand she plants a vineyard.

17. She girds her waist in strength, and makes her arms strong.

18. She perceives that her merchandise is good; her lamp does not go out in the night.

19. Her hands she puts onto the distaff, and her palms hold a spindle.

20. Her palm she opens to the poor, and her hand she reaches out to the needy.
