A Mulher Sábia

14 House and wealth are inherited from fathers, but a prudent wife is from the LORD.


25 Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.

26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.


1 "Then the kingdom of heaven shall be compared to ten maidens who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom.

2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.

3 For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them;

4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps.

5 As the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept.

6 But at midnight there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.'

7 Then all those maidens rose and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.'

9 But the wise replied, Perhaps there will not be enough for us and for you; go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.'

10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast; and the door was shut.

11 Afterward the other maidens came also, saying, Lord, lord, open to us.'

12 But he replied, Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.'

13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.


16 A gracious woman gets honor, and violent men get riches.


30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.


11 The women likewise must be serious, no slanderers, but temperate, faithful in all things.


10 A good wife who can find? She is far more precious than jewels.


33 The fear of the LORD is instruction in wisdom, and humility goes before honor.


5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all men generously and without reproaching, and it will be given him.


10 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.


11 Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his presence continually!


3 Bid the older women likewise to be reverent in behavior, not to be slanderers or slaves to drink; they are to teach what is good,

4 and so train the young women to love their husbands and children,

5 to be sensible, chaste, domestic, kind, and submissive to their husbands, that the word of God may not be discredited.


4 A good wife is the crown of her husband, but she who brings shame is like rottenness in his bones.


1 Wisdom builds her house, but folly with her own hands tears it down.


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

29 "Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all."
