Lexicon :: Strong's H802 - 'iššâ

The king ^H4428 loved ^H157 Esther ^H635 more ^H4480 than ^H4480 all ^H3605 the women ^H802, and she found ^H5375 favor ^H2580 and kindness ^H2617 with him more ^H4480 than ^H4480 all ^H3605 the virgins ^H1330, so that he set ^H7760 the royal ^H4438 turban ^H3804 on her head ^H7218 and made ^H4427 her queen ^H4427 in ^H8478 place ^H8478 of ^H8478 Vashti ^H2060.

Then his wife ^H802 said ^H559 to him, “Do you still ^H5750 hold ^H2388 firm ^H2388 your integrity ^H8538? Curse ^H1288 God ^H430 and die ^H4191!”

“Man ^H120, who is born ^H3205 of woman ^H802,

Is [fn]short-lived ^H7116 H3117 and full ^H7649 of turmoil ^H7267.

“What ^H4100 is man ^H582, that he would be ^H2135 pure ^H2135,

Or he who is born ^H3205 of a woman ^H802, that he would be ^H6663 righteous ^H6663?

“My breath ^H7307 is offensive ^H2114 to my wife ^H802,

And I am loathsome ^H2603 to my own brothers ^H1121 H990.

“How ^H4100 then can mankind ^H582 be ^H6663 righteous ^H6663 with God ^H410?

Or how ^H4100 can anyone who is born ^H3205 of woman ^H802 be ^H2135 pure ^H2135?

“If ^H518 my heart ^H3820 has been enticed ^H6601 by a woman ^H802,

Or I have lurked ^H693 at my neighbor’s ^H7453 doorway ^H6607,

May they be like a snail ^H7642 which goes ^H1980 along ^H1980 in slime ^H8557,

Like the miscarriage ^H5309 of a woman ^H802 that never ^H1077 sees ^H2372 the sun ^H8121.

May his children ^H1121 be fatherless ^H3490,

And his wife ^H802 a widow ^H490.

Your wife ^H802 will be like a fruitful ^H6509 vine ^H1612

[fn]Within ^H3411 your house ^H1004,

Your children ^H1121 like olive ^H2132 plants ^H8363

Around ^H5439 your table ^H7979.

To rescue ^H5337 you from the strange ^H2114 woman ^H802,

From the foreign ^H5237 woman ^H5237 who flatters ^H2505 with her words ^H561,

Let your fountain ^H4726 be blessed ^H1288,

And rejoice ^H8055 in the wife ^H802 of your youth ^H5271.

To keep ^H8104 you from the evil ^H7451 woman ^H802,

From the smooth ^H2513 tongue ^H3956 of the foreign ^H5237 woman ^H5237.

For the price ^H1157 of a prostitute ^H802 H2181 reduces one to a loaf ^H3603 of bread ^H3899,

And [fn]an adulteress ^H802 H376 hunts ^H6679 for a precious ^H3368 life ^H5315.

So ^H3651 is the one who goes ^H935 in ^H935 to his neighbor’s ^H7453 wife ^H802;

Whoever ^H3605 touches ^H5060 her will not [fn]go ^H5352 unpunished ^H5352.

One who commits ^H5003 adultery ^H5003 with a woman ^H802 is lacking ^H2638 [fn]sense ^H3820;

He who would destroy ^H7843 [fn]himself ^H5315 commits ^H6213 it.

So that they may keep ^H8104 you from an [fn]adulteress ^H802 H2114,

From the foreigner ^H5237 who flatters ^H2505 with her words ^H561.

And behold ^H2009, a woman ^H802 comes to meet ^H7122 him,

Dressed ^H7897 as a prostitute ^H2181 and cunning ^H5341 of heart ^H3820.

[fn]A woman ^H802 of foolishness ^H3687 is boisterous ^H1993,

She has a lack ^H6615 of ^H6615 understanding ^H6615 and knows ^H3045 nothing ^H1077 H4100.

A gracious ^H2580 woman ^H802 attains ^H8551 honor ^H3519,

And ruthless ^H6184 men ^H6184 attain ^H8551 riches ^H6239.

As a ring ^H5141 of gold ^H2091 in a pig’s ^H2386 snout ^H639

So is a beautiful ^H3303 woman ^H802 who lacks ^H5493 discretion ^H2940.

An [fn]excellent ^H2428 wife ^H802 is the crown ^H5850 of her husband ^H1167,

But she who shames ^H954 him is like rottenness ^H7538 in his bones ^H6106.

The wise ^H2450 woman ^H802 builds ^H1129 her house ^H1004,

But the foolish ^H200 tears ^H2040 it down ^H2040 with her own hands ^H3027.

He who finds ^H4672 a wife ^H802 finds ^H4672 a good ^H2896 thing ^H2896

And obtains ^H6329 favor ^H7522 from the LORD ^H3068.

A foolish ^H3684 son ^H1121 is destruction ^H1942 to his father ^H1,

And the quarrels ^H4066 of a wife ^H802 are a constant ^H2956 dripping ^H1812.

It is better ^H2896 to live ^H3427 on a corner ^H6438 of a roof ^H1406

Than ^H4480 [fn]in a house ^H1004 shared ^H2267 with a contentious ^H4066 woman ^H802.

It is better ^H2896 to live ^H3427 in a desert ^H4057 land ^H776

Than ^H4480 with a contentious ^H4066 and irritating ^H3708 woman ^H802.

It is better ^H2896 to live ^H3427 on a corner ^H6438 of the roof ^H1406,

Than ^H4480 [fn]in a house ^H1004 shared ^H2267 with a contentious ^H4066 woman ^H802.

A constant ^H2956 dripping ^H1812 on a day ^H3117 of steady ^H5464 rain ^H5464

And a contentious ^H4066 woman ^H802 are ^H7737 alike ^H7737;

This ^H3651 is the way ^H1870 of an adulterous ^H5003 woman ^H802:

She eats ^H398 and wipes ^H4229 her mouth ^H6310,

And says ^H559, “I have done ^H6466 no ^H3808 wrong ^H205.”

Do not give ^H5414 your strength ^H2428 to women ^H802,

Or your ways ^H1870 to that which destroys ^H4229 kings ^H4428.

An excellent ^H2428 wife ^H802, who ^H4310 can find ^H4672 her?

For her worth ^H4377 is far ^H7350 above ^H4480 jewels ^H6443.

Charm ^H2580 is deceitful ^H8267 and beauty ^H3308 is vain ^H1892,

But a woman ^H802 who [fn]fears ^H3372 the LORD ^H3068, she shall be praised ^H1984.

“If ^H518 you yourself do not know ^H3045,

Most beautiful ^H3303 among women ^H802,

Go ^H3318 out ^H3318 on the trail ^H6119 of the flock ^H6629,

And pasture ^H7462 your young ^H1429 goats ^H1429

By the tents ^H4908 of the shepherds ^H7462.

The Chorus

“[fn]What ^H4100 kind of beloved ^H1730 is your beloved ^H1730,

O most beautiful ^H3303 among women ^H802?

[fn]What ^H4100 kind of beloved ^H1730 is your beloved ^H1730,

That you make ^H7650 us swear ^H7650 in this ^H3602 way ^H3602?”
