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.

21. She does not fear for her house when it snows, for her entire household is clothed in crimson.

22. She makes for herself coverings; her clothing is fine linen and purple.

24. Linen garments she makes and sells, and she supplies sashes for the merchants.

25. Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the future.

26. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and instruction of kindness is upon her tongue.
