Who can find a virtuous and capable wife?  She is worth more than precious rubies.

​

•     Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life.
  ​
•     She will not hinder him but help him all her life.
  ​
•     She is energetic and strong, a hard worker.  She watches for bargains, her lights burn late into the night.
  ​
•     She extends a helping hand to the poor and opens her arms to the needy.
  ​
•     She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs with no fear of the future.
  ​
•     When she speaks her words are wise, and kindness is the rule when she gives instructions.
  ​
•     She carefully watches all that goes on in her household and does not have to bear the consequences of laziness.
  ​
•     Charm is deceptive, and beauty does not last; but a woman who fears the Lord will be greatly praised.
