It is an acrostic poem.

Proverbs 31:10–31 (Eshet Ḥayil, “Woman of Valor”) is alphabetic/acrostic in Hebrew: its lines/phrases begin with successive letters of the Hebrew alphabet (22 letters). That alphabetic structure is what makes this passage distinctive (though it also functions as a praise‑ode, its uniqueness in Proverbs is the acrostic form).
