Words of Wisdom
Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them. Psalm 126:2
Even in laughter the heart is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness. Proverbs 14:13
I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What doeth it?
I sought in mine heart to give myself unto wine, yet acquainting mine heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life.
Ecclesiastes 2:2, 3
Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better. Ecclesiastes 7:3
For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity. Ecclesiastes 7:6
A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things. Ecclesiastes 10:19
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. James 4:9
