Proverbs 31:29-31
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
29 “Many are the women of proven worth,
but you have excelled them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive and beauty fleeting;
the woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.[a]
31 Acclaim her for the work of her hands,
and let her deeds praise her at the city gates.
