Ecclesiastes 7:1-4
Ecclesiastes 7:1
A good name is better than good oil, And the day of one’s death is better than the day of one’s birth.
Ecclesiastes 7:2
It is better to go to a house of mourning Than to go to a house of feasting, Because that is the end of every person, And the living takes it to heart.
Ecclesiastes 7:3
Sorrow is better than laughter, For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.
Ecclesiastes 7:4
The mind of the wise is in the house of mourning, While the mind of fools is in the house of pleasure.
