Ecclesiastes 7:2-
4 [
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. ... The
heart of the wise [
is] in the house of mourning; but
the heart of fools [
is] in the house of mirth.
Isaiah 22:12-
14 And in that day did the Lord GOD of hosts
call to weeping, and to mourning, and
to baldness, and to girding with sackcloth: ... And
it was revealed in mine ears by the LORD of hosts,
Surely this iniquity shall not be purged from you till ye die, saith the Lord GOD of hosts.
Amos 6:4-
6 That
lie upon
beds of ivory, and
stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall; ... That
drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the
chief ointments:
but they are not grieved for the
affliction of Joseph.

them] all.
1 Corinthians 5:11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is
called a brother be a
fornicator,

or a railer,
or a drunkard,
or an extortioner;
with such an one no not to eat.
Ephesians 5:11 And have
no fellowship with the
unfruitful works of darkness,
but rather reprove [
them].
