Proverbs 31:23-31 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

23. Known in the gates is her husband, In his sitting with elders of the land.

24. Linen garments she hath made, and selleth, And a girdle she hath given to the merchant.

25. Strength and honour [are] her clothing, And she rejoiceth at a latter day.

26. Her mouth she hath opened in wisdom, And the law of kindness [is] on her tongue.

27. She [is] watching the ways of her household, And bread of sloth she eateth not.

28. Her sons have risen up, and pronounce her happy, Her husband, and he praiseth her,

29. `Many [are] the daughters who have done worthily, Thou hast gone up above them all.'

30. The grace [is] false, and the beauty [is] vain, A woman fearing Jehovah, she may boast herself.

31. Give ye to her of the fruit of her hands, And her works do praise her in the gates!
