Ecclesiastes 7:2-5

Coverdale(i) 2 It is better to go in to an house of mournynge, then in to a bancket house. For there is the ende of all men, and he that is lyuinge, taketh it to herte. 3 It is better to be sory then to laugh, for whe the countenaunce is heuy, the herte is ioyfull. 4 The herte of ye wyse is in the mournynge house, but the hert of the foolish is in the house of myrth. 5 It is better to geue eare to the chastenynge of a wyse man, then to heare the songe of fooles.
