“He will yet fill your mouth with laughterAnd your lips with shouting.
Then our mouth was filled with laughterAnd our tongue with joyful shouting;Then they said among the nations,“The Lord has done great things for them.”
Even in laughter the heart may be in pain,And the end of joy may be grief.
I said of laughter, “It is madness,” and of pleasure, “What does it accomplish?”
Sorrow is better than laughter,For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.
For as the crackling of thorn bushes under a pot,So is the laughter of the fool;And this too is futility.
Be miserable and mourn and weep; let your laughter be turned into mourning and your joy to gloom.
