11. Look well after an impudent eye; And marvel not if it trespass against you.
12. She will open her mouth, as a thirsty traveller, And drink of every water that is near: At every post will she sit down, And open her quiver against any arrow.
13. The grace of a wife will delight her husband; And her knowledge will fatten his bones.
14. A silent woman is a gift of the Lord; And there is nothing so much worth as a well-instructed soul.
15. A shamefast woman is grace upon grace; And there is no price worthy of a continent soul.
16. As the sun when it arises in the highest places of the Lord, So is the beauty of a good wife in the ordering of a man’s house.
