Thematic Bible: Manifested in laughter
Thematic Bible
Joy » Earthly » Manifested in laughter
Even in laughter the heart may be in pain,
And the end of joy may be grief.
Sorrow is better than laughter,
For when a face is sad (deep in thought) the heart may be happy [because it is growing in wisdom].
For like the crackling of [burning] thorn bushes under a pot,
So is the laughter of the fool;
And this too is vanity (futility).
Be miserable and grieve and weep [over your sin]. Let your [foolish] laughter be turned to mourning and your [reckless] joy to gloom.
