Ecclesiastes 7:1-6
1
A good name [is] better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one's birth.
2
[It is] better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that [is] the end of all men; and the living will lay [it] to his heart.
3
Sorrow [is] better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.
4
The heart of the wise [is] in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools [is] in the house of mirth.
5
[It is] better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.
6
For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so [is] the laughter of the fool: this also [is] vanity.
