2 I said of laughter, “It is mad,” and of pleasure, “What use is it?”

2 I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What doeth it?

2 So I said, “Laughter is silly. What good does it do to seek pleasure?”

2 It is foolish to laugh all the time, and having fun doesn’t accomplish anything.

2 I said of laughter, It is mad; and of mirth, What doeth it?

2 I said of laughter, Madness! and of mirth, What availeth it?

2 I thought, “Laughter doesn’t make any sense. What does pleasure accomplish?” 

2 I said about laughter, “It is madness,” and about pleasure, “What does this accomplish?”

2 I said of laughter, “It is mad,” and of pleasure, “What use is it?”

2 I said of laughter, “It is folly!” and of pleasure, “What does it accomplish?”

2 “Laughter is foolish,” I said. “And what can pleasure do for me?”

2 I said of laughter, “It is madness,” and of pleasure, “What does it accomplish?”
