Secondly, A laughing of scorn, called subsannation. With both these laughters the Lord will fill the mouths of his people.
First, With laughing for joy: for joy at their own comfortable ⟨p. 134⟩and good estate, for joy that the Lord hath glorified himself in their deliverance. These things are great matter of joy to them. And then he will fill their mouths with a laughing of derision, they shall scorn their enemies who have scorned at them. God laughs at the proud opposers of his truth and people, Psal. 2. He that fitteth in the heavens shall laugh, the Lord shall have them in derision. When the Lord hath confounded the plots of his enemies, he laugheth at them; his people also shall laugh, not insulting in the sins and miseries of men, but in the vengeance and disappointments which God poureth upon them. The derisions and scorns of the Saints have more holiness in them, then the devotions and prayers of wicked men. The word in the next clause is considerable.
