Eclesiastés 7

Besser, in das Haus der Trauer zu gehen, als in das Haus des Gelages zu gehen, indem jenes das Ende aller Menschen ist; und der Lebende nimmt es zu Herzen. -

Mejor es ir á la casa del luto que á la casa del convite: porque aquello es el fin de todos los hombres; y el que vive parará mientes.

It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart.

It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting; for that is the end of all men, and the living should take this to heart.
