Ecclesiastes 7:2-4

Common English Bible

² It is better to go to a house in mourning
    than to a house party,
    because that is everyone’s destiny;
    and the living should take it to heart.
³ Aggravation is better than merriment
    because a sad face may lead to a glad heart.
⁴ The wise heart is in the house that mourns,
    but the foolish heart is in the house that rejoices.
