12She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.

13She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.

14She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.

15She gets up while it is still dark;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her servant girls.

16She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.

17She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.

18She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.

19In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

20She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.

21When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

22She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.

23Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.

24She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.

25She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.

26She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

27She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.

28Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:

29“Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”

30Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.

31Give her the reward she has earned,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

17“Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments.”

18“Which ones?” the man inquired.
Jesus replied, “‘Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony,19honor your father and mother,’Exodus 20:12-16; Deut. 5:16-20 and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’Lev. 19:18”

20“All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”

21Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.24Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”

25When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”

28Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.29And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or motherSome manuscripts mother or wife or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.30But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.
