Ecclesiastes 7:2-4

2 It is better to go to a house of mourning
Than to go to a house of feasting,
Because ^{▼▼I.e., death}that is the ^bend of every person,
And the living ^{▼▼Lit gives
,} ^dtakes it to ^{▼▼Lit his heart}heart.
3 ^fSorrow is better than laughter,
For ^gwhen a face is sad a heart may be happy.
4 The ^{▼▼Lit heart}mind of the wise is in the house of mourning,
While the ^{▼▼Lit heart}mind of fools is in the house of pleasure.
