Women

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come.

Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.

Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

And now, my daughter, fear not; I will do to thee all that thou requirest: for all the city of my people doth know that thou art a virtuous woman.

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father’s house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?

And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.

And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.
