Do you see a man skilled in his work?
He will stand before kings;
He will not stand before obscure men.

On top of the heights beside the way,
Where the paths meet, she takes her stand;

The wicked are overthrown and are no more,
But the house of the righteous will stand.

Many plans are in a man’s heart,
But the counsel of the Lord will stand.

Do not claim honor in the presence of the king,
And do not stand in the place of great men;

Wrath is fierce and anger is a flood,
But who can stand before jealousy?

Death and life stand in the power of the tongue; he that loveth it, shall enjoy the fruit thereof.

Be thou an advocate and stand in judgment thyself, to speak for all such as be dumb and sucourless.

Her children stand up and encourage her, as does her husband, who praises her:

The evil will bow down before the good,
And the wicked [will bow down] at the gates of the righteous.
