10 Who shall find a virtuous woman? for such a one is more valuable than precious stones.
1 PALABRAS del rey Lemuel; la profecía con que le enseñó su madre. 2 ¿Qué, hijo mío? ¿y qué, hijo de mi vientre? ¿y qué, hijo de mis deseos? 3 No des á las mujeres tu fuerza, ni tus caminos á lo que es para destruir los reyes. 4 No es de los reyes, oh Lemuel, no es de los reyes beber vino, ni de los príncipes la cerveza. 5 No sea que bebiendo olviden la ley, y perviertan el derecho de todos los hijos afligidos. 6 Dad la cerveza al desfallecido, y el vino á los de amargo ánimo: 7 Beban, y olvídense de su necesidad, y de su miseria no más se acuerden. 8 Abre tu boca por el mudo, en el juicio de todos los hijos de muerte. 9 Abre tu boca, juzga justicia, y el derecho del pobre y del menesteroso. 10 Mujer fuerte, ¿quién la hallará? porque su estima sobrepuja largamente á [la de] piedras preciosas.
1 The words of King Lemuel—the revelation which his mother taught him: 2 “Oh, my son! Oh, son of my womb! Oh, son of my vows! 3 Don’t give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings. 4 It is not for kings, Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor for princes to say, ‘Where is strong drink?’ 5 lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted. 6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul. 7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more. 8 Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are left desolate. 9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and serve justice to the poor and needy.” 10 Who can find a worthy woman? For her value is far above rubies.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her: such a one shall stand in no need of fine spoils.
11 El corazón de su marido está en ella confiado, y no tendrá necesidad de despojo.
11 The heart of her husband trusts in her. He shall have no lack of gain.
12 For she employs all her living for her husband's good.
12 Darále ella bien y no mal, todos los días de su vida.
12 She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life.
13 Gathering wool and flax, she makes it serviceable with her hands.
13 Buscó lana y lino, y con voluntad labró de sus manos.
13 She seeks wool and flax, and works eagerly with her hands.
14 She is like a ship trading from a distance: so she procures her livelihood.
14 Fué como navío de mercader: trae su pan de lejos.
14 She is like the merchant ships. She brings her bread from afar.
15 And she rises by night, and gives food to her household, and [appointed] tasks to her maidens.
15 Levantóse aun de noche, y dió comida á su familia, y ración á sus criadas.
15 She rises also while it is yet night, gives food to her household, and portions for her servant girls.
16 She views a farm, and buys it: and with the fruit of her hands she plants a possession.
16 Consideró la heredad, y compróla; y plantó viña del fruto de sus manos.
16 She considers a field, and buys it. With the fruit of her hands, she plants a vineyard.
17 She strongly girds her loins, and strengthens her arms for work.
17 Ciñó sus lomos de fortaleza, y esforzó sus brazos.
17 She arms her waist with strength, and makes her arms strong.
18 And she finds by experience that working is good; and her candle goes not out all night.
18 Gustó que era buena su granjería: su candela no se apagó de noche.
18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp doesn’t go out by night.
19 She reaches forth her arms to needful [works], and applies her hands to the spindle.
19 Aplicó sus manos al huso, y sus manos tomaron la rueca.
19 She lays her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle.
20 And she opens her hands to the needy, and reaches out fruit to the poor.
20 Alargó su mano al pobre, y extendió sus manos al menesteroso.
20 She opens her arms to the poor; yes, she extends her hands to the needy.
21 Her husband is not anxious about those at home when he tarries anywhere abroad: for all her household are clothed.
21 No tendrá temor de la nieve por su familia, porque toda su familia está vestida de ropas dobles.
21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household, for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 She makes for her husband clothes of double texture, and garments for herself of fine linen and scarlet.
22 Ella se hizo tapices; de lino fino y púrpura es su vestido.
22 She makes for herself carpets of tapestry. Her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23 And her husband becomes a distinguished [person] in the gates, when he sits in council with the old inhabitants of the land.
23 Conocido es su marido en las puertas, cuando se sienta con los ancianos de la tierra.
23 Her husband is respected in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land.
24 She makes fine linens, and sells girdles to the Chananites: she opens her mouth heedfully and with propriety, and controls her tongue.
24 Hizo telas, y vendió; y dió cintas al mercader.
24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and delivers sashes to the merchant.
25 She puts on strength and honour; and rejoices in the last days.
25 Fortaleza y honor son su vestidura; y en el día postrero reirá.
25 Strength and dignity are her clothing. She laughs at the time to come.
26 The ways of her household are careful, and she eats not the bread of idleness.
26 Abrió su boca con sabiduría: y la ley de clemencia está en su lengua.
26 She opens her mouth with wisdom. Kind instruction is on her tongue.
27 But she opens her mouth wisely, and according to law.
27 Considera los caminos de su casa, y no come el pan de balde.
27 She looks well to the ways of her household, and doesn’t eat the bread of idleness.
28 And [her] kindness to them sets up her children for them, and they grow rich, and her husband praises her.
28 Levantáronse sus hijos, y llamáronla bienaventurada; y su marido también la alabó.
28 Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her:
29 Many daughters have obtained wealth, many have wrought valiantly; but thou hast exceeded, thou hast surpassed all.
29 Muchas mujeres hicieron el bien; mas tú las sobrepujaste á todas.
29 “Many women do noble things, but you excel them all.”
30 Charms are false, and woman's beauty is vain: for it is a wise woman that is blessed, and let her praise the fear of the Lord.
30 Engañosa es la gracia, y vana la hermosura: la mujer que teme á Jehová, ésa será alabada.
30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised.
31 Give her of the fruit of her lips; and let her husband be praised in the gates.
31 Dadle el fruto de sus manos, y alábenla en las puertas sus hechos.
31 Give her of the fruit of her hands! Let her works praise her in the gates!

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
And mercy is in His tongue, therefore mercifully teacheth He the law, as it is said regarding wisdom, "The law and mercy doth she carry in her tongue." Do not fear that thou art not able to fulfill the law, flee to mercy.
