Parallel
Ecclesiastes 7:2
Brenton's English Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
[It is] better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the banquet house: since this is the end of every man; and the living man will apply good [warning] to his heart.
It is better to enter a house of mourning than a house of feasting, since death is the end of every man, and the living should take this to heart.
