Ecclesiastes 7:3-5

21st Century King James Version

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.
