Listen to Sirach 25:7
7 In my heart, I would consider nine conditions to be happy, and I'll name a tenth with my tongue— people who are made glad by their children, and who live to see the downfall of their enemies.

Sirach 25:7 In-Context

5 How beautiful is wisdom in the aged and thought and counsel in those who are respectable!
6 Experience is the crown of the aged and respecting the Lord is their claim to fame.
7 In my heart, I would consider nine conditions to be happy, and I'll name a tenth with my tongue— people who are made glad by their children, and who live to see the downfall of their enemies.
8 Happy are those who live with sensible wives, who don't slip with their tongue, and who haven't been a servant to one inferior to themselves.
9 Happy is the one who has gained good sense and who is passing this along to listening ears.
