Proverbs 31:31

An Excellent Woman

³⁰
Charm and grace are deceptive, and [superficial] beauty is vain,
But a woman who fears the Lord [reverently worshiping, obeying, serving, and trusting Him with awe-filled respect], she shall be praised.
³¹ 
Give her of the product of her hands,
And let her own works praise her in the gates [of the city].
