'Laughter' in the Bible

He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with gladness.

Even in laughter the heart may ache, and the end of joy may be grief.

Sorrow is better than laughter, because sober reflection is good for the heart.

For like the crackling of quick-burning thorns under a cooking pot, so is the laughter of the fool. This kind of folly also is useless.

Feasts are made for laughter, and wine makes life merry, but money is the answer for everything.

Out of those places you will hear songs of thanksgiving and the sounds of laughter and merriment. I will increase their number and they will not dwindle away. I will bring them honor and they will no longer be despised.

Grieve, mourn, and weep. Turn your laughter into mourning and your joy into despair.
