Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to raise up their mourning.

I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long.

Thus saith the Lord GOD; In the day when he went down to the grave I caused a mourning: I covered the deep for him, and I restrained the floods thereof, and the great waters were stayed: and I caused Lebanon to mourn for him, and all the trees of the field fainted for him.

I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, and I cried in the congregation.

My harp also is turned to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep.

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.
