A woman of valor, who can find
Far beyond pearls is her value
Her husband's heart relies on her
And he won't lack any fortune
She repays his good, but never his harm
All the days of her life
She seeks out wool and linen, and her hands work willingly
(She's) Like a merchant's ships, from afar she brings her sustenance
She arises while it is yet nighttime and
Gives food to her household and ration to her maidens
She envisions a field and buys it
From the fruit of her handiwork she plants a vineyard
With strength she girds her loins, and invigorates her arms
It's the woman of valor

She can tell that her enterprise is good
So her lamp is not snuffed out by night
Her hands she stretches out to the distaff
And her palms support the spindle
She spreads out her palm to the poor
And extends her hands to the destitute
She fears not snow for her household
For her entire household is clothed with scarlet wool
Luxurious bedspreads she made herself
Linen and purple wool are her clothing
Distinctive in the councils is her husband
When he sits with the elders of the land
She makes a cloak to sell, and delivers a belt to the peddler
Strength and majesty are her raiment
She joyfully awaits the last day
It's the woman of valor

She opens her mouth with wisdom
A lesson of kindness is on her tongue
She anticipates the ways of her household
And won't eat the bread of laziness
Her children arise and praise her
Her husband loves and lauds her
Many daughters have amassed achievement
But you surpassed them all
False is grace and vain is beauty
A G-d fearing woman - she should be praised
Give her the fruits of her hand
Let her be praised in the gates by her very own deeds
This praise is for the woman of valor in your life
It can be your mother or your wife
The woman of valor
