2 <V 7:3>It is better to go to a house of mourning, than to a house of feasting. For in the former, we are admonished about the end of all things, so that the living consider what may be in the future.

3 <V 7:4>Anger is better than laughter. For through the sadness of the countenance, the soul of one who offends may be corrected.

4 <V 7:5>The heart of the wise is a place of mourning, and the heart of the foolish is a place of rejoicing.
