¹⁶ She considers a field and buys it;
    out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
¹⁷ She sets about her work vigorously;
    her arms are strong for her tasks.
¹⁸ She sees that her trading is profitable,
    and her lamp does not go out at night.
¹⁹ In her hand she holds the distaff
    and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

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

²⁶ She speaks with wisdom,
    and faithful instruction is on her tongue.^(A)
