Proverbios 31

1The words^H1697 of king^H4428 Lemuel^H3927; the oracle^H4853 which his mother^H517 taught^H3256 him. 2What, my son^H1248? and what, O son^H1248 of my womb^H990? And what, O son^H1248 of my vows^H5088? 3Give^H5414 not thy strength^H2428 unto women^H802, Nor thy ways^H1870 to that which destroyeth^H4229 kings^H4428. 4It is not for kings^H4428, O Lemuel^H3927, it is not for kings^H4428 to drink^H8354 wine^H3196; Nor for^H335 princes^H7336 to say, Where is strong drink^H7941? 5Lest they drink^H8354, and forget^H7911 the law^H2710, And pervert^H8138 the justice^H1779 due to any that is afflicted^H1121. 6Give^H5414 strong drink^H7941 unto him that is ready to perish^H6, And wine^H3196 unto the bitter^H4751 in soul^H5315: 7Let him drink^H8354, and forget^H7911 his poverty^H7389, And remember^H2142 his misery^H5999 no more. 8Open^H6605 thy mouth^H6310 for the dumb^H483, In the cause^H1779 of all such as are left^H1121 desolate^H2475. 9Open^H6605 thy mouth^H6310, judge^H8199 righteously^H6664, And minister^H1777 justice to the poor^H6041 and needy^H6041. 10A worthy^H2428 woman^H802 who can find^H4672? For her price^H4377 is far^H7350 above rubies^H6443. 11The heart^H3820 of her husband^H1167 trusteth^H982 in her, And he shall have no lack^H2637 of gain^H7998. 12She doeth^H1580 him good^H2896 and not evil^H7451 All the days^H3117 of her life^H2416. 13She seeketh^H1875 wool^H6785 and flax^H6593, And worketh^H6213 willingly^H2656 with her hands^H3709. 14She is like the merchant-ships; She bringeth^H935 her bread^H3899 from afar^H4801. 15She riseth^H6965 also while it is yet night^H3915, And giveth^H5414 food^H2964 to her household^H1004, And their task^H2706 to her maidens^H5291. 16She considereth^H2161 a field^H7704, and buyeth^H3947 it; With the fruit^H6529 of her hands^H3709 she planteth^H5193 a vineyard^H3754. 17She girdeth^H2296 her loins^H4975 with strength^H5797, And maketh strong^H5797 her arms^H2220. 18She perceiveth^H2938 that her merchandise^H5504 is profitable^H2896: Her lamp^H5216 goeth not out^H3518 by night^H3915. 19She layeth^H7971 her hands^H3027 to the distaff^H6418, And her hands^H3709 hold^H8551 the spindle^H3601. 20She stretcheth out^H6566 her hand^H3709 to the poor^H6041; Yea, she reacheth forth^H7971 her hands^H3027 to the needy^H34. 21She is not afraid^H3372 of the snow^H7950 for her household^H1004; For all her household^H1004 are clothed^H3847 with scarlet^H8144. 22She maketh^H6213 for herself carpets of tapestry^H4765; Her clothing^H3830 is fine linen^H8336 and purple^H713. 23Her husband^H1167 is known^H3045 in the gates^H8179, When he sitteth^H3427 among the elders^H2205 of the land^H776. 24She maketh^H6213 linen^H5466 garments and selleth^H4376 them, And delivereth^H5414 girdles^H2289 unto the merchant^H3669. 25Strength^H5797 and dignity^H1926 are her clothing^H3830; And she laugheth^H7832 at the time^H3117 to come^H314. 26She openeth^H6605 her mouth^H6310 with wisdom^H2451; And the law^H8451 of kindness^H2617 is on her tongue^H3956. 27She looketh well^H6822 to the ways^H1979 of her household^H1004, And eateth^H398 not the bread^H3899 of idleness^H6104. 28Her children^H1121 rise up^H6965, and call her blessed^H833; Her husband^H1167 also, and he praiseth^H1984 her, saying: 29Many^H7227 daughters^H1323 have done^H6213 worthily^H2428, But thou excellest^H5927 them all. 30Grace^H2580 is deceitful^H8267, and beauty^H3308 is vain^H1892; But a woman^H802 that feareth^H3373 Jehovah^H3068, she shall be praised^H1984. 31Give^H5414 her of the fruit^H6529 of her hands^H3027; And let her works^H4639 praise^H1984 her in the gates^H8179.
