Proverbs 31:17-30
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 31
17
She surrounds her waist with strength
And makes her arms strong.
18
She senses that her profit is good;
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19
She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
And her hands grasp the spindle.
20
She extends her hand to the poor,
And she stretches out her hands to the needy.
21
She is not afraid of the snow for her household,
For all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22
She makes coverings for herself;
Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23
Her husband is known in the gates,
When he sits among the elders of the land.
24
She makes linen garments and sells
them,
And supplies belts to the tradesmen.
25
Strength and dignity are her clothing,
And she smiles at the future.
26
She opens her mouth in wisdom,
And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27
She watches over the activities of her household,
And does not eat the bread of idleness.
28
Her children rise up and bless her;
Her husband
also,
and he praises her,
saying:
29
'Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all.'
30
Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But
a woman who fears the
Lord
, she shall be praised.
King James Version
Chapter 31
17
She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
18
She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
19
She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
20
She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
21
She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22
She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
23
Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24
She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
25
Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
26
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
27
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
29
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the
Lord
, she shall be praised.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 31
17
She draws on her strength
and reveals that her arms are strong.
18
She sees that her profits are good,
and her lamp never goes out at night.
19
She extends her hands to the spinning staff,
and her hands hold the spindle.
20
Her hands reach out to the poor,
and she extends her hands to the needy.
21
She is not afraid for her household when it snows,
for all in her household are doubly clothed.
22
She makes her own bed coverings;
her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23
Her husband is known at the city gates,
where he sits among the elders of the land.
24
She makes and sells linen garments;
she delivers belts to the merchants.
25
Strength and honor are her clothing,
and she can laugh at the time to come.
26
Her mouth speaks wisdom,
and loving instruction is on her tongue.
27
She watches over the activities of her household
and is never idle.
28
Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also praises her:
29
"Many women have done noble deeds,
but you surpass them all!"
30
Charm is deceptive and beauty is fleeting,
but a woman who fears the
Lord
will be praised.
New Living Translation
Chapter 31
17
She is energetic and strong,
a hard worker.
18
She makes sure her dealings are profitable;
her lamp burns late into the night.
19
Her hands are busy spinning thread,
her fingers twisting fiber.
20
She extends a helping hand to the poor
and opens her arms to the needy.
21
She has no fear of winter for her household,
for everyone has warm clothes.
22
She makes her own bedspreads.
She dresses in fine linen and purple gowns.
23
Her husband is well known at the city gates,
where he sits with the other civic leaders.
24
She makes belted linen garments
and sashes to sell to the merchants.
25
She is clothed with strength and dignity,
and she laughs without fear of the future.
26
When she speaks, her words are wise,
and she gives instructions with kindness.
27
She carefully watches everything in her household
and suffers nothing from laziness.
28
Her children stand and bless her.
Her husband praises her:
29
'There are many virtuous and capable women in the world,
but you surpass them all!'
30
Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last;
but a woman who fears the
Lord
will be greatly praised.
