One opinion/understanding found:
Proverbs 31:3 is a warning given by a mother to her son about the dangers of inappropriate relationships1. The warning is not to "give [one's] strength to women"123. In this context, that means not making desires or distractions a weakness or expending excessive time and energy pursuing them1. The passage cautions against wasting one's substance on women, as such connections can destroy the strength of body, soul, and substance3.

The verse you're referring to is from Isaiah 66:5. In the English Standard Version (ESV), it reads: "Hear the word of the Lord, you who tremble at his word: 'Your brothers who hate you and cast you out for my name's sake have said, "Let the Lord be glorified, that we may see your joy"; but it is they who shall be put to shame.'"
This passage addresses those who are faithful to God and have faced opposition or rejection because of their faith. It reassures them that, despite the challenges they face, God will ultimately vindicate them. The verse highlights the contrast between those who mock or oppose the faithful and the joy and vindication that the faithful will experience when God acts on their behalf. It serves as an encouragement to remain steadfast in faith, trusting that God will bring justice and joy to those who honor Him.
