13 She seeks wool and flax,
And willingly works with her hands.
14 She is like the merchant ships,
She brings her food from afar.
15 (A)She also rises while it is yet night,
And (B)provides food for her household,
And a portion for her maidservants.
16 She considers a field and buys it;
From [a]her profits she plants a vineyard.
17 She girds herself with strength,
And strengthens her arms.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is good,
And her lamp does not go out by night.
