The Bible love quotes below taken from the book of Proverbs chapter 31 are in a class by themselves. They describe in graphic imagery the role, character, behaviour and demeanour of a "capable wife".

According to this Bible love quotes, a capable wife is a true treasure whose values is far more than that of the most expensive jewellery - "far more than that of corals". Take a look.

"A capable wife who can find? Her value is far more than
that of corals. In her the heart of her owner has put trust,
and there is no gain lacking. She has rewarded him with good,
and not bad, all the days of her life. She has sought wool and linen,
and she works at whatever is the delight of her hands. She has
proved to be like the ships of a merchant. From far away she
brings in her food. She also gets up while it is still night,
and gives food to her household and the prescribed portion
to her young women. She has considered a field and proceeded
to obtain it; from the fruitage of her hands she has
planted a vineyard."

Just look at the description of a capable wife in the above Bible love quotes once again! Is that not simply amazing?

The holy book continues regarding the capable wife:

"She has girded her hips with strength, and she invigorates
her arms. She has sensed that her trading is good; her lamp
does not go out at night. Her hands she has thrust out to
the distaff, and her own hands take hold of the spindle.

"Her palm she has stretched out to the afflicted one, and
her hands she has thrust out to the poor one. She does
not fear for her household because of the snow, for all
her household are clothed with double garments. Coverlets
she has made for herself. Her clothing is of linen and
wool dyed reddish purple.

"Her owner is someone known in the gates, when he sits down
with the older men of the land. She has made even undergarments
and proceeded to sell [them], and belts she has given to the tradesmen.
Strength and splendor are her clothing, and she laughs at a future day.
Her mouth she has opened in wisdom, and the law of
loving-kindness is upon her tongue.

"She is watching over the goings-on of her household,
and the bread of laziness she does not eat. Her sons
have risen up and proceeded to pronounce her happy;
her owner [rises up], and he praises her. There are
many daughters that have shown capableness, but you
- you have ascended above them all.

"Charm may be false, and prettiness may be vain; [but] the woman that
fears Jehovah is the one that procures praise for herself.
GIVE her of the fruitage of her hands, and let her works
praise her even in the gates." - Prov. 31:10-31

The above love quotes from the Bible regarding the capable wife tells a story in simple language of a family who have genuine love for one another. This is truly enlightening indeed for all young men intending to get married!

And why is that? Simply because of the capable wife! Look at the love quotes again.

"She has rewarded him (her husband) with good, and not bad, all the days of her life."

"She is watching over the goings-on of her household, and the bread of laziness she does not eat." Yes! The capable wife, apart from being a good homemaker and keeper, is a very hardworking woman.

"From far away she brings in her food. She also gets up while it is still night, and gives food to her household and the prescribed portion to her young women."

But, she is far from being a slave - as some highly "modern" women might regard her. lt gives her great pleasure to watch over the goings-on of her household - because that is all she has got!

And what does she get in return for being a capable wife?

"In her the heart of her owner has put trust and there is no gain lacking. Her sons have risen up and proceeded to pronounce her happy; her owner [rises up], and he praises her." What better reward can there ever be for a woman than these? None!

Bottom line of this Bible love quotes? "The woman that fears Jehovah is the one that procures praise for herself and let her works praise her even in the gates". Truly, a capable wife is indeed an invaluable treasure whose values is far more than that of the most expensive jewellery - "far more than that of corals"!

What man is there who will not be happy to have such a capable woman as his wife? Is there any? No, of course not! Every young man who desire good thing and loves himself greatly would want this woman for himself as his wife!

If you are a woman, ask yourself are you someone of whom can be spoken of as a capable wife when you get married? And if you are a man, never make the mistake of marrying someone who is far from being a capable wife!

But, contrast the character of the capable wife with that of the adulterous woman.

"A leaking roof that drives one away in the day of a steady rain and a contentious wife are comparable. Anyone sheltering her has sheltered the wind,
and oil is what his right hand encounters." (Prov. 27: 15)

Did that not paint a vivid graphic image in your mind's eyes? That is truly a remarkable contrast indeed to the capable wife! Unlike the capable wife who is cherished greatly by everyone in her family, a contentious wife chases a man from his own house!

Indeed, while the above love quotes taken from some portions of the Bible may not pass as famous love quotes by the standard of some people, no one can dispute the fact that they do indeed drive the point home!
