才德的妇人 箴31:10-31
Who can find a virtuous wife? Proverbs 31:10-31
才德的妇人谁能得着呢．他的价值远胜过珍珠．
他丈夫心里倚靠他、必不缺少利益．
他一生使丈夫有益无损．
他寻找羊绒和麻、甘心用手作工．
他好像商船从远方运粮来．
未到黎明他就起来、把食物分给家中的人．将当作的工分派婢女。
他想得田地、就买来．用手所得之利、栽种葡萄园．
他以能力束腰、使膀臂有力．
他觉得所经营的有利他的灯终夜不灭。
他手拿捻线竿．手把纺线车．
他张手赒济困苦人．伸手帮补穷乏人。
他不因下雪为家里的人担心、因为全家都穿着朱红衣服．
他为自己制作绣花毯子．他的衣服、是细麻和紫色布作的。
他丈夫在城门口与本地的长老同坐、为众人所认识。
他作细麻布衣裳出卖．又将腰带卖与商家。
能力和威仪、是他的衣服．他想到日后的景况就喜笑。
他开口就发智慧．他舌上有仁慈的法则．
他观察家务、并不吃闲饭。
他的儿女起来称他有福．他的丈夫也称赞他、
说、才德的女子很多、惟独你超过一切。
艳丽是虚假的．美容是虚浮的．惟敬畏耶和华的妇女、必得称赞。
愿他享受操作所得的．愿他的工作、在城门口荣耀他。~圣经

Who can find a virtuous wife? Proverbs 31:10-31
10 Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.
11 The heart of her husband safely trusts her; So he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good and not evil All the days of her life.
13 She seeks wool and flax, And willingly works with her hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships, She brings her food from afar.
15 She also rises while it is yet night, And provides food for her household, And a portion for her maidservants.
16 She considers a field and buys it; From her profits she plants a vineyard.
17 She girds herself with strength, And strengthens her arms.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is good, And her lamp does not go out by night.
19 She stretches out her hands to the distaff, And her hand holds the spindle.
20 She extends her hand to the poor, Yes, she reaches out her hands to the needy.
21 She is not afraid of snow for her household, For all her household is clothed with scarlet.
22 She makes tapestry 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 sashes for the merchants.
25 Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come.
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness.
27 She watches over the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her:
29 "Many daughters have done well, But you excel them all."
30 Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates. ~Bible( New King James Version)
