A Mulher Sábia

14 Houses and riches [are] the inheritance of fathers, and a prudent wife [is] from the LORD.

25 Strength and honor [are] her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

26 She opens her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue [is] the law of kindness.

1 Then shall the kingdom of Heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

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

3 The foolish ones took their lamps, but took no oil with them.

4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

5 While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.

6 And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom comes! Go out to meet him.

7 Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.

8 And the foolish said to the wise, Give us [some] of your oil, for our lamps have gone out.

9 But the wise answered, saying, [No], lest there be not enough for us and you. But rather go to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.

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

11 Afterwards the other virgins came also, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

12 But he answered and said, Truly I say to you, I do not know you.

13 Therefore watch, for you do not know either the day or the hour in which the Son of man comes.

16 A gracious woman keeps honor, and the strong keep riches.

30 Favor [is] deceitful, and beauty [is] vain, [but] a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.

11 Even so [their] wives are to [be] reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

10 Who can find a woman of virtue? For her value [is] far above rubies.

33 The fear of the LORD [is] the instruction of wisdom, and before honor [is] humility.

5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, [who] gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

10 The fear of the LORD [is] the beginning of wisdom; and the knowledge of the holy [is] understanding.

11 Seek the LORD and His strength; seek His face continually.

3 Let the aged women likewise [be] in reverent behavior, not slanderers, not enslaved by much wine, teachers of good;

4 that they may train the young women to love their husbands, to love their children,

5 [to be] discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, subject to [their] own husbands, that the Word of God may not be blasphemed.

4 A woman of virtue [is] a crown to her husband, but she who causes shame [is] like rottenness in his bones.

1 A wise woman builds her house, but the foolish plucks it down with her hands.

28 Her sons rise up and call her blessed; her husband [also], and he praises her.

29 Many daughters have done well, but you excel them all.
