A wife of good character, where can you find
such a virtuous woman – noble and kind?
Just before dawn, while the family’s in bed,
she’s down in the kitchen: baking the bread.
She’s planted a vineyard – see all that is growing!
She busies herself with weaving and sewing,
making clothes for her family, quilts for her bed,
Ensuring the poor and the needy are fed.
Her manner is gentle; her words always wise;
she’s blesséd and praised in her family’s eyes.
A wonderful woman who has earned her reward,
but her strength only comes through her love of the Lord
