'Happy' in the Bible
I have concluded that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to enjoy themselves as long as they live,
I have seen that nothing is better than that man should be happy in his activities, for that is his lot. For who will bring him to see what will occur after him?
There was no end to all of his subjects or to all of the people who had come before them. But those who come along afterward will not be happy with him. This is also pointless and a chasing after wind.
Sorrow is better than laughter,For when a face is sad a heart may be happy.
In the day of prosperity be happy,But in the day of adversity consider—God has made the one as well as the otherSo that man will not discover anything that will be after him.
So then I recommended enjoyment of life, because it is better on earth for a man to eat, drink, and be happy, since this will stay with him throughout his struggle all the days of his life, which God grants him on earth.
Go, eat your food with joy, and drink your wine with a happy heart, because God has already approved your works.
Happy art thou, O land, When thy king is a son of freemen, And thy princes do eat in due season, For might, and not for drunkenness.
A feast is prepared for laughter,and wine makes life happy,and money is the answer for everything.
