Shir

Eshet Chayil (A Woman of worth) is sung when the Bride arrives at the wedding canopy and circles her husband to be seven times. A woman of valour who can find? For her price is far above rubies The heart of her husband safely trusts in her, And he has no lack of gain She does him good and not evil all the days of her life She seeks wool and flax, And works willingly with her hands She is like the merchant­ships; She brings her food from afar She rises also while it is yet night, And gives food to her household, And a portion to her daughters.
