She extends her hand to the poor, Yes she reaches out her hands to the needy. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness. She watches over the ways of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed. Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord shall be praised. Proverbs 31.
