Sirach 22:10-12

Revised Standard Version

¹¹ Weep for the dead, for he lacks the light;
    and weep for the fool, for he lacks intelligence;
weep less bitterly for the dead, for he has attained rest;
    but the life of the fool is worse than death.
¹² Mourning for the dead lasts seven days,
    but for a fool or an ungodly man it lasts all his life.
