When you have found a wife, you have found a good treasure. She brings honor upon her husband and children.

Her husband has no fear concerning her faithfulness. Only love and joy she brings to him.

She is not lazy or slovenly but maintains a clean peaceful household.

From her, his daughters learn how to grow into virtuous women. The sons have a pattern of what they should seek in a wife.

A man with such a wife will never lack care or food.

She is a wise woman who is not afraid to share decisions and take responsibility.

Her neighbors are blessed by her and will never go hungry, they will praise her and her husband for her love and care.

Within this woman’s mouth is wisdom, within her heart is humility. She is clothed in beauty and fear and obedience to YHWH.

Do you seek a wife, search for this woman. Do you seek to be a wife, cultivate the virtues of the Proverbs 31 wife.

Prov 31:10-31

11 Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.

12 She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life.

13 She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.

14 She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.

15 She gets up while it is still dark; she provides food for her family and portions for her servant girls.

16 She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.

17 She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.

18 She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night.

19 In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

20 She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy.

21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

22 She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple.

23 Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.

24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.

25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.

26 She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness.

28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her:

29 "Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all."

30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears YHWH is to be praised.

31 Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
