2 It's better to attend a funeral than to attend a banquet, for everyone dies eventually, and the living will take this to heart.

3 Sorrow is better than laughter, because the heart is made better through trouble.

4 For the wise person thinks carefully when in mourning, but fools focus their thoughts on pleasure.
