Best Answer

You are speaking about Proverbs 18:22, see below. The term 'favor' is perhaps teaching here that marital problems happen usually from breakdowns in communications or the mutual respect that is to be given. It is not from some flaw in marriage itself which God gave to mankind.

The writer of Proverbs has two other Scriptures on a wife with a 'acrostic poem' in the Hebrew language in Proverbs 31:10-31 ('The Virtuous Wife') that is suggested reading. The other is Proverbs 12:4 speaking of the 'excellent' wife being the 'crown of her husband.'

Proverbs 18:22

New International Version (NIV)

22 He who finds a wife finds what is good

and receives favor from the Lord.
