• Ecclesiastes 2:1-3
  I said in my heart, “Come now, I will test you with mirth; therefore enjoy pleasure”; but surely, this also was vanity. I said of laughter—“Madness!”; and of mirth, “What does it accomplish?” I searched in my heart how to gratify my flesh with wine, while guiding my heart with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives.
   
• Ecclesiastes 2:12-13
  Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly;
  For what can the man do who succeeds the king?—
  Only what he has already done.
  Then I saw that wisdom excels folly
  As light excels darkness.

  Better to go to the house of mourning
  Than to go to the house of feasting,
  For that is the end of all men;
  And the living will take it to heart.
  
   
• Genesis 18:10-15
  And He said, “I will certainly return to you according to the time of life, and behold, Sarah your wife shall have a son.” (Sarah was listening in the tent door which was behind him.) Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age; and Sarah had passed the age of childbearing. Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, “After I have grown old, shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?” And the LORD said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Shall I surely bear a child, since I am old?’ Is anything too hard for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.” But Sarah denied it, saying, 'I did not laugh,' for she was afraid. And He said, 'No, but you did laugh!'

  The Lord shall hold them in derision.

  And the end of mirth may be grief.
