The words of King Lemuel are the true words that his mother taught him.

My son, the child born in my womb, the child I have made a wish for, how should I teach you?

Do not give your energy to women, and do not engage in corrupt behavior towards kings.

O Lemuel, it is not appropriate for a king to drink wine. The prince said that strong wine is not suitable there either.

I’m afraid if I drink it, I will forget the laws and overturn the right and wrong of all the poor.

You can give the strong wine to the dying. Give sake to the hardworking.

Let him drink, forget his poverty, no longer remember his suffering.

You should speak up for the mute (or those who cannot discern), and seek justice for all those who are lonely.

Speak up and judge in righteousness, and plead the cause of the poor and the needy.

Who can obtain a virtuous woman? Her value far exceeds that of pearls.

Her husband relies on her in his heart and will not lack benefits.

She has been beneficial to her husband throughout her life.

She searched for cashmere and hemp, willing to work with her hands.

She seems like a merchant ship carrying grain from afar.

She got up before dawn and distributed the food among the family members. Assign maidservants to their assigned jobs.

She bought the land she wanted. Plant vineyards with the profits obtained by hand.

She tied her waist with her ability, making her arms strong.

She felt that what she was managing was advantageous, and her lamp stayed on all night.

She is holding a twisting rod in her hand. Handheld spinning wheel.

She extends her hand to help the poor and the needy.

She doesn’t worry about her family because it snows, because the whole family is wearing vermilion clothes.

She made embroidered blankets for herself, and her clothes were made of fine linen and purple cloth.

Her husband sat with the local elders at the city gate and was known by everyone.

She made fine linen clothes for sale. Sell the belt to the merchant again.

Ability and prestige are her clothes. She smiled happily at the thought of the future situation.

She speaks with wisdom. She has a benevolent law on her tongue.

She observes household chores and does not eat idle food.

Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praised her,

There are many talented women, but you surpass everything.

Brilliance is false. Beauty is superficial. Only women who fear the Lord will be praised.

May she enjoy the gains from the operation. May her work glorify her at the city gate.
