Proverbs 31:23

Her husband is highly respected in his work,
he sits among the elders at the gates [where justice was administered and ethics and morals were discussed].
[The fourteenth Hebrew letter is: נ – Nun. The character depicts a grain of wheat that has begun to sprout and often describes offspring and continuity. Sometimes it is also associated with a fish or a snake. It is often used to describe continuation and continuity. In this verse, the word "highly respected" begins with this letter, reinforcing that her husband leads the country forward in wisdom and provides a good future for generations to come.]
