    she is confident about the future.
²⁶ Her mouth is full of wisdom;
    kindly teaching is on her tongue.
²⁷ She is vigilant over the activities of her household;
    she doesn’t eat the food of laziness.

    her husband praises her:
²⁹     “Many women act competently,

    let her deeds praise her in the city gates.
