Contextual Overview

1 A good name is more worth then precious oyntment: & the day of death, is better the the day of byrth. 2 It is better to go into an house of mourning, then into a banketting house: For there is the ende of all men, and he that is liuing taketh it to heart. 3 Grauitie is better then to laugh: for when the countenaunce is heauie, the heart is refourmed. 4 The heart of the wise is in the mourning house: but the heart of the foolishe is in the house of myrth. 5 It is better to geue eare to the chastening of a wyse man, then to heare the songue of fooles: 6 For the laughyng of fooles is like the cracking of thornes vnder a pot: and that is but a vayne thing.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

[It is] better to hear the rebuke of the wise,.... To listen to it diligently, receive it cordially, and act according to it; though it may be disagreeable to the flesh, and give present pain, yet the effect and issue will be good, and show that man to be wise that hears it, as well as he that gives it; see Psalms 141:1;

than for a man to hear the song of fools; the vain and impure songs that foolish men sing in the house of mirth; or the flatteries of foolish men, which tickle and please the mind, as music and songs do: or, "than a man that hears the song of fools" i, and is pleased with it.

i מאיש שמע שיר כסילים "quam vir audiens canticum stultorum", Montanus, Mercerus; "prae viro audiente canticum stultorum", Rambachius.
