Read Proverbs 18:22 in the NABRE onlineHe that hath found a good wife, hath found a good thing, and shall receive a blessing from the Lord.
Reflection
He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. The proverb is not about luck but about recognition — finding a good thing means seeing it for what it is. The favor is the bonus, not the point.
