Kabbalah su Proverbi 12:4

אֵֽשֶׁת־חַ֭יִל עֲטֶ֣רֶת בַּעְלָ֑הּ וּכְרָקָ֖ב בְּעַצְמוֹתָ֣יו מְבִישָֽׁה׃

Una donna virtuosa è una corona per suo marito; Ma lei che fa vergogna è come il marciume nelle sue ossa.

Zohar

Rabbi Abba went to the field of Kanya (other versions: to do business) to the cave in Lod. With him were Rabbi Yosi and Rabbi Hyiah. Rabbi Yosi said: it is written "a woman of valor is a crown to her husband etc" (Proverbs 12:4). A woman of valor - this is the congregation of Israel. And when their very essence is rotten due to evil. They, (other versions: the religions of the other), the peoples, are strange service, that cannot be withstood by the Holy One of Blessing in the world, as it is written 'and I was angry [akutz] at them' (Lev. 20:21) - just like these thorns and lions that distress human beings, and they can't stand them. Rabbi Abba said: This is the obvious - 'woman of valor' is the congregation of Israel, since she is the mistress of many valorous men and many seeders that are found in the world. 'A crown to her husband' - just as you say, a crown of beauty [tif'eret] and all is one. [this is a wrong version: the 'woman of valor' is the congregation of Israel, that from the union of the king many men of valor, many seeders, many righteous people [appear] in the world, and all of them are called 'children of the Holy One of Blessing and of the Congregation of Israel' as it is written "you are children to Ad-nai your God" (Deut. 14:1).] Until they had walked, Rabbi Abba said: all is one, let us say a word about the congregation of Israel.

Zohar

[Seven shafts are seen in HAVAYAH without the YUD, so now we explain the] YUD - "a woman of valor is the crown of her husband" (Prov. 12:4) that is the crown of the Sefer Torah, like the form of the ZAYIN [that is a YUD on top of a VAV, similar to a crown] of the world to come. There, She [Shechinah] is not a vessel for Him, nor does She help Him, rather, She is a crown on His head. But in this world, it is this way, HEY VAV HEY YUD is the lower vessel, that helps Him, in all His counts, in all His limbs, in all His traits.
