NASB
"The mind of the wise is in the house of mourning, While the mind of fools is in the house of pleasure."
— Ecclesiastes 7:4, NASB
“The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.”
“The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth. ”
“The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.”
“The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of merrymaking.”
“Anger is better than laughter: because by the sadness of the countenance the mind of the offender is corrected.”
“The hearts of the wise are in the house of weeping; but the hearts of the foolish are in the house of joy.”
“The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.”
A good name is better than a good ointment, And the day of one's death is better than the day of one's birth.
It is better to go to a house of mourning Than to go to a house of feasting, Because that is the end of every man, And the living takes it to heart.
Sorrow is better than laughter, For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.
The mind of the wise is in the house of mourning, While the mind of fools is in the house of pleasure.
It is better to listen to the rebuke of a wise man Than for one to listen to the song of fools.
For as the crackling of thorn bushes under a pot, So is the laughter of the fool; And this too is futility.
For oppression makes a wise man mad, And a bribe corrupts the heart.
