14 House and wealth are an inheritance from fathers; but a prudent wife is from Jehovah.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laugheth {at} the coming day.
26 She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and upon her tongue is the law of kindness.
1 Then shall the kingdom of the heavens be made like to ten virgins that having taken their torches, went forth to meet the bridegroom.
2 And five of them were prudent and five foolish.
3 They that were foolish took their torches and did not take oil with them;
4 but the prudent took oil in their vessels with their torches.
5 Now the bridegroom tarrying, they all grew heavy and slept.
6 But in {the} middle of {the} night there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom; go forth to meet him.
7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their torches.
8 And the foolish said to the prudent, Give us of your oil, for our torches are going out.
9 But the prudent answered saying, {We cannot,} lest it might not suffice for us and for you. Go rather to those that sell, and buy for yourselves.
10 But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the {ones that were} ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.
11 Afterwards come also the rest of the virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us;
12 but he answering said, Verily I say unto you, I do not know you.
13 Watch therefore, for ye know not the day nor the hour.
16 A gracious woman retaineth honour; and the violent retain riches.
30 Gracefulness is deceitful and beauty is vain; a woman {that} feareth Jehovah, she shall be praised.
11 {The} women in like manner grave, not slanderers, sober, faithful in all things.
10 Who can find a woman of worth? for her price is far above rubies.
33 The fear of Jehovah is the discipline of wisdom, and before honour {goeth} humility.
5 But if any one of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all freely and reproaches not, and it shall be given to him:
10 The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; and the knowledge of the Holy is intelligence.
11 Seek Jehovah and his strength, Seek his face continually;
4 A woman of worth is a crown to her husband; but she that maketh ashamed is as rottenness in his bones.
3 that the elder women in like manner be in deportment as becoming those who have to say to sacred things, not slanderers, not enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is right;
4 that they may admonish the young women to be attached to {their} husbands, to be attached to {their} children,
5 discreet, chaste, diligent in home work, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of.
1 The wisdom of women buildeth their house; but folly plucketh it down with her hands.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband {also}, and he praiseth her:
29 Many daughters have done worthily, but thou excellest them all.
