Proverbs 18:22 Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing, And obtains favor of Yahweh.

Ephesians 5:22-24 Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything.

1 Peter 3:1-6 In like manner, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any don't obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word; seeing your pure behavior in fear. Let your beauty be not just the outward adorning of braiding the hair, and of wearing jewels of gold, or of putting on fine clothing; but in the hidden person of the heart, in the incorruptible adornment of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God very precious. For this is how the holy women before, who hoped in God, also adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands: as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you now are, if you do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.

Colossians 3:18 Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

Psalms 128:3 Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, In the innermost parts of your house; Your children like olive plants, Around your table.

1 Corinthians 7:3 Let the husband render to his wife the affection owed her, and likewise also the wife to her husband.

Proverbs 31:10-31 Who can find a worthy woman? For her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband trusts in her. He shall have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, All the days of her life. She seeks wool and flax, And works eagerly with her hands. She is like the merchant ships. She brings her bread from afar. She rises also while it is yet night, Gives food to her household, And portions for her servant girls. She considers a field, and buys it. With the fruit of her hands, she plants a vineyard. She girds her loins with strength, And makes her arms strong. She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp doesn't go out by night. She lays her hands to the distaff, And her hands hold the spindle. She opens her arms to the poor; Yes, she extends her hands to the needy. She is not afraid of the snow for her household; For all her household are clothed with scarlet. She makes for herself carpets of tapestry. Her clothing is fine linen and purple. Her husband is respected in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land. She makes linen garments and sells them, And delivers sashes to the merchant. Strength and dignity are her clothing. She laughs at the time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom. Faithful instruction is on her tongue. She looks well to the ways of her household, And doesn't eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her: "Many women do noble things, But you excel them all." Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; But a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands! Let her works praise her in the gates!

Proverbs 12:4 A worthy woman is the crown of her husband, But a disgraceful wife is as rottenness in his bones.

Proverbs 5:18-19 Let your spring be blessed. Rejoice in the wife of your youth. A loving doe and a graceful deer-- Let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Be captivated always with her love.

Proverbs 14:1 Every wise woman builds her house, But the foolish one tears it down with her own hands.

Proverbs 19:14 House and riches are an inheritance from fathers, But a prudent wife is from Yahweh.
