The Woman Who Fears the Lord

10 ^{▼▼Verses 10–31 are an acrostic poem, each verse beginning with the successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet} ^cAn excellent wife who can find?
She is far more precious than ^djewels.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her,
and he will have no lack of gain.
12 She does him good, and not harm,
all the days of her life.
13 She ^eseeks wool and flax,
and works with willing hands.
14 She is like the ships of the merchant;
she brings her food from afar.
15 She ^frises while it is yet night
and ^gprovides food for her household
and portions for her maidens.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
with the fruit of her hands she plants a vineyard.
17 She ^hdresses herself ^{▼▼Hebrew She girds her loins} with strength
and makes her arms strong.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable.
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19 She puts her hands to the distaff,
and her hands hold the spindle.
20 She ^jopens her hand to ^kthe poor
and reaches out her hands to ^lthe needy.
21 She is not afraid of snow for her household,
for all her household are clothed in ^mscarlet. ^{▼▼Or in double thickness}
22 She makes ^obed coverings for herself;
her clothing is ^pfine linen and ^qpurple.
23 Her husband is known in ^rthe gates
when he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes ^slinen garments and sells them;
she delivers sashes to the merchant.
25 ^tStrength 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.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

Isaiah 3:16-24

16 The Lord said:
^uBecause ^vthe daughters of Zion are haughty
and walk with outstretched necks,
glancing wantonly with their eyes,
mincing along as they go,
^wtinkling with their feet,
17 therefore the Lord ^xwill strike with a scab
the heads of ^ythe daughters of Zion,
and the Lord will lay bare their secret parts.
18 In that day the Lord will take away ^zthe finery of the anklets, the ^aaheadbands, and the ^abcrescents; 19 the pendants, the bracelets, and the scarves; 20 the ^acheaddresses, the armlets, the sashes, the perfume boxes, and the amulets; 21 the signet rings and ^adnose rings; 22 the ^aefestal robes, the mantles, the cloaks, and the handbags; 23 the mirrors, the linen garments, the turbans, and the veils.

24 Instead of ^afperfume there will be rottenness;
and instead of a ^agbelt, a rope;
and instead of ^ahwell-set hair, ^aibaldness;
and instead of a rich robe, a ^ajskirt of sackcloth;
and ^akbranding instead of beauty.
