Proverbs15:15

15 All the days of the afflicted are evil , but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast .

Of the troubled in mind or heart, as this general Expression may very fitly be restrained from the following clause.

Tedious and uncomfortable, he takes no content in any time or thing.

Heb. of a good heart, i. e. composed, and quiet, and contented.

Hath constant satisfaction and delight in all conditions, yea, even in affliction.
