“A joyful heart makes a cheerful countenance, but sorrow of the heart crushes the spirit.”
Proverbs 15:13 (BSB)
Context Reading
11Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the LORD — how much more the hearts of men! 12A mocker does not love to be reproved, nor will he consult the wise. 13A joyful heart makes a cheerful countenance, but sorrow of the heart crushes the spirit. 14A discerning heart seeks knowledge, but the mouth of a fool feeds on folly. 15All the days of the oppressed are bad, but a cheerful heart has a continual feast.
