A glad heart brightens the face, but heartache crushes the spirit.
In context
11Sheol and Abaddon lie open before Yahweh—how much more the hearts of men. 12The scoffer does not love the one who reproves him; he will not go to the wise. 13A glad heart brightens the face, but heartache crushes the spirit. 14The heart of the discerning seeks knowledge, but the mouth of fools grazes on folly. 15All the days of the afflicted are hard, but a cheerful heart has a feast without end.
