26:1. Happy is the husband of a good wife: for the number of his years is double.
26:2. A virtuous woman rejoiceth her husband, and shall fulfil the years of his life in peace.
26:3. A good wife is a good portion, she shall be given in the portion of them that fear God, to a man for his good deeds.
26:4. Rich or poor, if his heart is good, his countenance shall be cheerful at all times.
26:5. Of three things my heart hath been afraid, and at the fourth my face hath trembled:
26:6. The accusation of a city, and the gathering together of the people:
26:7. And a false calumny, all are more grievous than death.
26:8. A jealous woman is the grief and mourning of the heart.
26:9. With a jealous woman is a scourge of the tongue which communicateth with all.
