A mulher sábia
A mulher sábia constrói sua casa sobre o fundamento do temor do Senhor. Sua sabedoria abençoa a família, a comunidade e as gerações futuras.
A sabedoria que edifica
A mulher sábia edifica sua casa. O temor do Senhor é o princípio da sabedoria e a instrução que conduz à honra.
1 The wise among women buildeth her house; but the foolish pulleth it down with her own hands.
10 The commencement of wisdom is the fear of the Lord; and the knowledge of the Most Holy One is understanding.
33 The fear of the Lord is the correction for wisdom; and before honor there must come humility.
11 Inquire after the Lord and his strength: seek his presence evermore.
Virtude e excelência
A mulher virtuosa é coroada de força e dignidade. Ela abre a boca com sabedoria e a instrução da bondade está na sua língua.
10 Who can find a virtuous woman: for far above pearls is her value.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing: and she smileth at the coming of the last day.26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom, and the law of kindness is on her tongue.
28 Her children rise up, and call her blessed; her husband, also, and he praiseth her:29 "Many daughters have done virtuously; but thou excellest them all."
30 False is grace, and vain is beauty: a woman only that feareth the Lord shall indeed be praised.
4 A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband: but as rottenness in his bones is one that bringeth shame on him.
16 A woman endowed with grace will surely obtain honor; and the powerful will obtain riches.
14 House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers; but from the Lord cometh an intelligent wife.
