Ecclesiasticus 30:25-27 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

25. For sadness hath killed many, and there is no profit in it.

26. Envy and anger shorten a man's days, and pensiveness will bring old age before the time.

27. A Cheerful and good heart is always feasting: for his banquets are prepared with diligence.
