What does a wise daughter bring to her husband according to the verses?

• A. An inheritance.
• B. A burden.
• C. A need for her father.
• D. Children.

Answer: (A)

The verses present a wise daughter as a lasting blessing to her husband, something of enduring value—a form of inheritance. In this biblical imagery, inheritance isn’t only wealth handed down from a father; it also conveys the enduring benefit and security a prudent wife brings to the home through wisdom, faithfulness, and support. So the idea is that a wise daughter contributes lasting worth to the marriage and household, much like an inheritance does for a family. The other options don’t fit this emphasis: she isn’t described as a burden, nor primarily as someone who merely needs her father’s involvement, and while children are blessings in general, the verses highlight the wife’s valued contribution as an inheritance in its own right.
