16 A kindhearted woman gains honor,

but ruthless men gain only wealth.

16 A gracious woman retaineth honour:

And strong men retain riches.

16 A gracious woman gains respect,

but ruthless men gain only wealth.

16 A gracious woman retains honor,

But ruthless men retain riches.

16 A kind woman gets respect,

but cruel men get only wealth.

16 A gracious woman obtaineth honor;

And violent men obtain riches.

16 A gracious woman retaineth honour; and the violent retain riches.

16 A gracious woman wins respect, 

but ruthless men gain riches. 

16 A gracious woman gains honor,

but violent men gain only riches.

16 A gracious woman gets honor,

but she who hates virtue is covered with shame.

The timid become destitute,

but the aggressive gain riches.

16 A woman of grace receives honor,

but the ruthless gets wealth.

16 A woman who has a kind heart gains respect.

But men who are not kind gain only wealth.

16 A gracious woman attains honor,

And ruthless men attain riches.
