Happy is the husband of a good wife;

2 A brave woman rejoiceth her husband;

3 A good wife is a good portion:

4 Whether a man be rich or poor,

5 Of three things my heart was afraid;

6 A grief of heart and sorrow is a woman that is jealous of another woman,

7 A wicked woman is as a yoke of oxen shaken to and fro:

8 A drunken woman causeth great wrath;

9 The whoredom of a woman is in the lifting up of her eyes;

10 Keep strict watch on a headstrong daughter,

11 Look well after an impudent eye;

12 She will open her mouth, as a thirsty traveler,

13 The grace of a wife will delight her husband;

14 A silent woman is a gift of the Lord;

15 A shamefaced woman is grace upon grace;

16 As the sun when it ariseth in the highest places of the Lord,

17 As the lamp that shineth upon the holy candlestick,

18 As the golden pillars are upon a base of silver,

28 For two things my heart is grieved;

29 A merchant shall hardly keep himself from wrong doing;
