Sirach 30:21-23
Common English Bible
21 Don’t let grief take you over,
and don’t distress yourself on purpose.
22 A joyful heart means life
for a human being,
and a person’s rejoicing
provides long life.
23 Distract yourself, cheer yourself up,
and keep grief far away from you
because grief has destroyed many,
and there’s no benefit in it.
