Ecclesiastes 7:3-6

Common English Bible

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.
⁵ It is better to obey the reprimand of the wise
    than to listen to the song of fools,
⁶     because the fool’s merriment
    is like nettles crackling under a kettle.
        That too is pointless.
