Proverbs 31

I'm interested in working visually connecting the idea of the pioneer woman, proverbs 31 and modernity vs pre-industry. Here are scriptures I've rearranged according to the subject and my interpretation as it relates to today's culture: 

Plan, prepare the finest and work eagerly for harder days to come: 

She selects wool and flax

    and works with eager hands. 

21 When it snows, she has no fear for her household;

    for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

Cook and prepare food for my family well as well as anyone who works for us:

14 She is like the merchant ships,

    bringing her food from afar. 

she provides food for her family

    and portions for her female servants.

Always be available:

15 She gets up while it is still night;

    and her lamp does not go out at night.

Use my craft to be profitable:

She considers a field and buys it;

    out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. She sees that her trading is profitable, 

She makes linen garments and sells them,

    and supplies the merchants with sashes.

Be strong and vigorous, without fear:

She sets about her work vigorously;

    her arms are strong for her tasks. 19 In her hand she holds the distaff

    and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

Help others in need who ask:

20 She opens her arms to the poor

    and extends her hands to the needy.

Create home and myself into beautiful sanctuary:

She makes coverings for her bed;

    she is clothed in fine linen and purple. ;

Represent my husband well:

23 Her husband is respected at the city gate,

    where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.

Always be prepared and never fear difficulties that may come. My spirits must be always pleasant:

 she can laugh at the days to come.

Exude a strength, respect and speak wisely and thoughtfully:

 25 She is clothed with strength and dignity. She speaks with wisdom,

    and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

Protect against others and not give into sinful desires: 

She watches over the affairs of her household

    and does not eat the bread of idleness

Seek respect and blessing from my family: 28 Her children arise and call her blessed;

    her husband also, and he praises her:
