Mishle 31:22-29 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

22. She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her levush (clothing) is fine linen and purple.

23. Her ba'al (husband) is known in the she'arim, when he sitteth among the ziknei eretz.

24. She maketh fine garments, and selleth them; and delivereth sashes unto the kena'ani (merchant).

25. Oz (strength) and hadar (dignity) are her clothing; and her smile is toward the yom acharon (coming day, future).

26. She openeth her peh (mouth) with chochmah; and on her lashon is the torat chesed (teaching of kindness).

27. She watcheth well over the halichot (goings, ways) of her bais (household), and eateth not the lechem atzlut (bread of idleness).

28. Her banim rise up, and call her blessed; her ba'al (husband) also, and he praiseth her.

29. Rabbot banot have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
