She occupieth wool and flax, and laboureth gladly with her hands. She is like the merchants' ship, that bringeth her victuals from afar. She riseth ere day and giveth meat to her household, and food to her maidens. She considereth land, and buyeth it; with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard. She girdeth her loins with strength, and courageth her arms. And if she perceiveth that her housewifery doth good, her candle goeth not out by night. She layeth her fingers to the spindle, and her hand taketh hold of the rock. She openeth her hand to the poor, yea she stretcheth forth her hands to such as have need She feareth not that the cold of winter shall hurt her house, for all her household folks are double clothed. She maketh herself fair ornaments; her clothing is white silk and purple. Her husband is much set by in the gates, when he sitteth among the rulers of the land. She maketh cloth of silk and selleth it, and delivereth a girdle unto the merchant. Strength and honour is her clothing, and in the latter day she shall rejoice. She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and in her tongue is the law of grace. She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not her bread with idleness. Her children arise, and call her blessed: and her husband maketh much of her. Many daughters there be that gather riches together, but thou goest above them all. Favour is a deceitful thing, and beauty is vanity; but a woman that feareth God, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates.

He that regardeth the wind, shall not sow; and he that hath respect unto the clouds, shall not reap. Now, like as thou knowest not the way of the wind, nor how the bones are filled in a mother's womb: Even so thou knowest not the works of God, which is the workmaster of all. Cease not thou therefore with thy hands to sow thy seed, whether it be in the morning or in the evening: for then knowest not whether this or that shall prosper, and if they both take, it is the better.
