| PIHA PATCHA | SHE OPENS HER MOUTH IN WISDOM | |
 |
||
| Sephardic transliteration | She opens her mouth with wisdom and a lesson of kindness is on her tongue. She looks after the conduct of her household and never tastes the bread of laziness. Her children rise up and make her happy; her husband praises her: "Many women have excelled, but you excel them all!" |
|
| Piha patcha bechachma, Vetorat chesed al leshona Tzofiya halichot bayta, Velechem atzlut lo tocheil Kamu vaneha vay’ashruha, Bala vayehal’la Rabot banot asu chayil, V’at alit al kulana |
||
| Ashkenazic transliteration | Hebrew words | |
| Piha pas'echah ve-chachma ve-soras chesed al leshona. Tzofiyah halichos beisa ve-lechem atzlus lo socheil. Kamu vaneha va-ye'ash'eruha ba'ala va-yehal'elah Rabos banos asu chayil vi-as alis al kulana. |
פיה פתחה בחכמה ותורת-חסד על-לשונה צופיה הילכות ביתה ולחם עצלות לא תאכל קמו בניה ויאשרוה בעלה ויהללה רבות בנות עשו חיל ואת עלית על-כלנה |
