1
The words of king Lemuel, the prophecy that his mother taught him.
—
2
What, my son? and what, the son of my womb? and what, the son of my vows?
—
3
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
—
4
It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:
—
5
Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
—
6
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.
—
7
Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
—
8
Open thy mouth for the dumb in the cause of all such as are appointed to destruction.
—
9
Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.

10
Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
Γυναῖκα ἀνδρείαν τίς εὑρήσει; τιμιωτέρα δέ ἐστι λίθων πολυτελῶν ἡ τοιαύτη.
11
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
Θαρσεῖ ἐπʼ αὐτῇ ἡ καρδία τοῦ ἀνδρὸς αὐτῆς· ἡ τοιαύτη καλῶν σκύλων οὐκ ἀπορήσει.
12
She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life.
Ἐνεργεῖ γὰρ τῷ ἀνδρὶ εἰς ἀγαθὰ πάντα τὸν βίον.
13
She seeketh wool, and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
Μηρυομένη ἔρια καὶ λινὸν, ἐποίησεν εὔχρηστον ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῆς.
14
She is like the merchants’ ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
Ἐγένετο ὡσεὶ ναῦς ἐμπορευομένη μακρόθεν, συνάγει δὲ αὕτη τὸν βίον.
15
She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and a portion to her maidens.
Καὶ ἀνίσταται ἐκ νυκτῶν, καὶ ἔδωκε βρώματα τῷ οἴκῳ, καὶ ἔργα ταῖς θεραπαίναις.
16
She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
Θεωρήσασα γεώργιον ἐπρίατο, ἀπὸ δὲ καρπῶν χειρῶν αὐτῆς κατεφύτευσεν κτῆμα.
17
She girdeth her loins with strength, and strengtheneth her arms.
Ἀναζωσαμένη ἰσχυρῶς τὴν ὀσφῦν αὐτῆς ἤρεισε τοὺς βραχίονας αὐτῆς εἰς ἔργον.
18
She perceiveth that her merchandise is good: her candle goeth not out by night.
Καὶ ἐγεύσατο ὅτι καλόν ἐστι τὸ ἐργάζεσθαι, καὶ οὐκ ἀποσβέννυται ὁ λύχνος αὐτῆς ὅλην τὴν νύκτα.
19
She layeth her hands to the spindle, and her hands hold the distaff.
τοὺς πήχεις αὐτῆς ἐκτείνει ἐπὶ τὰ συμφέροντα, τὰς δὲ χεῖρας αὐτῆς ἐρείδει εἰς ἄτρακτον.
20
She stretcheth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
Χεῖρας δὲ αὐτῆς διήνοιξε πένητι, καρπὸν δὲ ἐξέτεινεν πτωχῷ.
21
She is not afraid of the snow for her household: for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
Οὐ φροντίζει τῶν ἐν οἴκῳ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ὅταν που χρονίζῃ, πάντες γὰρ οἱ παρʼ αὐτῆς ἐνδεδυμένοι εἰαί.
22
She maketh herself coverings of tapestry; her clothing is silk and purple.
Δισσὰς χλαίνας ἐποίησε τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς, ἐκ δὲ βύσσου καὶ πορφύρας ἑαυτῇ ἐνδύματα.
23
Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
Περίβλεπτος δὲ γίνεται ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ἐν πύλαις, ἡνίκα ἂν καθίσῃ ἐν συνεδρίῳ μετὰ τῶν γερόντων κατοίκων τῆς γῆς.
24
She maketh fine linen, and selleth it; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
Σινδόνας ἐποίησε καὶ ἀπέδοτο περιζώματα τοῖς Χαναναίοις. στόμα αὐτῆς διήνοιξε προσεχόντως καὶ ἐννόμως, καὶ τάξιν ἐστείλατο τῇ γλώσσῃ αὐτῆς.
25
Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.
Ἰσχὺν καὶ εὐπρέπειαν ἐνεδύσατο, καὶ εὐφράνθη ἐν ἡμέραις ἐσχάταις.
26
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.
Στεγναὶ διατριβαὶ οἴκων αὐτῆς, σῖτα δὲ ὀκνηρὰ οὐκ ἔφαγεν.
27
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
Τὸ στόμα δὲ ἀνοίγει σοφῶς καὶ νομοθέσμως. Ἡ δὲ ἐλεημοσύνη αὐτῆς
28
Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.
ἀνέστησε τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς καὶ ἐπλούτησαν, καὶ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ᾔνεσεν αὐτήν.
29
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
Πολλαὶ θυγατέρες ἐκτήσαντο πλοῦτον, πολλαὶ ἐποίησαν δύναμιν· σὺ δὲ ὑπέρκεισαι, ὑπερῇρας πάσας.
30
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
Ψευδεῖς ἀρέσκειαι, καὶ μάταιον κάλλος γυναικος· γυνὴ γὰρ συνετὴ εὐλογεῖται, φόβον δὲ Κυρίου αὕτη αἰνείτω.
31
Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.
Δότε αὐτῇ ἀπὸ καρπῶν χειλέων αὐτῆς, καὶ αἰνείσθω ἐν πύλαις ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς.
