Proverbs 31:11-17 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

11. The heart of her husband confides in her, and he will not be deprived of spoils.

12. She will repay him with good, and not evil, all the days of her life.

13. She has sought wool and flax, and she has worked these by the counsel of her hands.

14. She has become like a merchant's ship, bringing her bread from far away.

15. And she has risen in the night, and given a prey to her household, and provisions to her maids.

16. She has considered a field and bought it. From the fruit of her own hands, she has planted a vineyard.

17. She has wrapped her waist with fortitude, and she has strengthened her arm.
