I'm faithfully working on memorizing, and living, Proverbs 31:10 - 31 (King James Version):
10 - Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
11 - The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
12 - She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
13 - She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
14 - She is like the merchants' ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
15 - She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
16 - She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
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 strecheth 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.
31 - Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own work priase her in the gates.
