PROVERBS 11:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
Prov 11:15Prov 11:17
A gracious woman retaineth honour: and strong men retain riches.
Woman of grace: A kindhearted woman gains honor, but ruthless people gain only wealth. The woman of grace (hesed) gains honor. Ruthless people (aritzim) gain only wealth. This indicates that honor—respect and esteem—flow from kindness, not from material accumulation. The ruthless may become rich, but they gain neither respect nor the internal satisfaction that honor provides.
