A good woman is hard to find,
and worth far more than diamonds.
Her husband trusts her without reserve,
and never reason to regret it.
Never spiteful, she treats him generously
all her life long.
She's up before the dawn, preparing breakfast
for her family and organizing her day.
First thing in the morning, she dresses for work,
rolls up her sleeves, eager to get started.
She senses the worth of her work,
is in no hurry to call it quits for the day.
She's skilled in the craft of home and hearth,
diligent in homemaking.
She always faces tomorrow with a smile.
When she speaks she has something worthwhile to say,
and she always says it kindly.
She keeps an eye on everyone in the household,
and keeps them busy and productive.
Her children respect her and bless her;
her husband joins in with words of praise:
"Many women have done wonderful things,
but you've outclassed them all!"
Charm can mislead and beauty soon fades.
The woman to be admired and praised
is the woman who lives in the Fear-of-God.
