Ecclesiastes 1:18

18 Because in much wisdom there is much grief, and increasing knowledge results in increasing pain.

Ecclesiastes 2:23

23 Because all his days his task is painful and grievous; even at night his mind does not rest. This too is vanity.

Ecclesiastes 7:3

3 Sorrow is better than laughter, For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.

Ecclesiastes 7:9

9 Do not be eager in your heart to be angry, For anger resides in the bosom of fools.

Ecclesiastes 11:10

10 So, remove grief and anger from your heart and put away pain from your body, because childhood and the prime of life are fleeting.
