Proverbs 31:28

31:28 Her children rise up ¹  and call her blessed,

her husband ²  also praises her:

[31:28]  ¹ tn The first word of the nineteenth line begins with ק (qof), the nineteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet.

[31:28]  ² tn The text uses an independent nominative absolute to draw attention to her husband: “her husband, and he praises her.” Prominent as he is, her husband speaks in glowing terms of his noble wife.
