Ecclesiastes 7:2-5
2It is betterH2896 to go to the houseH1004 of mourningH60, thanH2896 to go to the houseH1004 of feastingH4960: for that is the endH5490 of allH3605 menH120; and the livingH2416 will layH5414 it to his heartH3820.
3SorrowH2896 is betterH2896 thanH2896 laughterH7814: for by the sadnessH7455 of the countenanceH6440 the heartH3820 is madeH3190 gladH3190.
4The heartH3820 of the wiseH2450 is in the houseH1004 of mourningH60; but the heartH3820 of foolsH3684 is in the houseH1004 of mirthH8057.
5It is betterH2896 to hearH8085 the rebukeH1606 of the wiseH2450, thanH2896 for a manH376 to hearH8085 the songH7892 of foolsH3684.
