25 She is clothed with strength and dignity,
and she laughs without fear of the future.

and she gives instructions with kindness.
27 She carefully watches everything in her household
and suffers nothing from laziness.
28 Her children stand and bless her.

29 “There are many virtuous and capable women in the world,
but you surpass them all!”

Let her deeds publicly declare her praise.
