Prov 31: ?
10An (
M)excellent wife, who can find?
For her worth is far (
N)above jewels.
11The heart of her husband trusts in her,
And he will have no lack of gain.
12She does him good and not evil
All the days of her life.
13She looks for wool and flax
And works with her hands in delight.
14She is like (
O)merchant ships;
She brings her food from afar.
15She (
P)rises also while it is still night
And (
Q)gives food to her household
And portions to her maidens.
16She considers a field and buys it;
From her earnings she plants a vineyard.
17She (
R)girds herself with strength
And makes her arms strong.
18She senses that her gain is good;
Her lamp does not go out at night.
19She stretches out her hands to the distaff,
And her hands grasp the spindle.
20She (
S)extends her hand to the poor,
And she stretches out her hands to the needy.
21She is not afraid of the snow for her household,
For all her household are (
T)clothed with scarlet.
22She makes ((“

Her clothing is (
V)fine linen and (
W)purple.
23Her husband is known (
X)in the gates,
When he sits among the elders of the land.
24She makes (
Y)linen garments and sells them,
And supplies belts to the tradesmen.
25Strength and (
Z)dignity are her clothing,
And she smiles at the future.
26She (
AA)opens her mouth in wisdom,
And the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
27She looks well to the ways of her household,
And does not eat the (
AB)bread of idleness.
28Her children rise up and bless her;
Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:
29"Many daughters have done nobly,
But you excel them all."
30Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,
But a woman who (
AC)fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
I am sorry about your mother in law. I will remember her in my prayers today.
