Characteristics of a Virtuous Woman
Posted on
12 May 2019
, Pastor: Greg Royston
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price
is
far above rubies.
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
She is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
She perceiveth that her merchandise
is
good: her candle goeth not out by night.
She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household
are
clothed with scarlet.
She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing
is
silk and purple.
Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
She maketh fine linen, and selleth
it
; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
Strength and honour
are
her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue
is
the law of kindness.
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband
also
, and he praiseth her
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
Favour
is
deceitful, and beauty
is
vain:
but
a woman
that
feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
