γ​ελάσετε. [2 verses] (verb 2nd pl fut ind act or verb 2nd pl aor subj act) "Ye shall laugh" is from gelao, which means to "laugh", "laugh at", and "deride". - The verb translated as "laugh" means "to laugh" but it covers not just happy laughter. It includes laughing at people and deriding them. Its use is entertaining because so much of what Jesus said was designed to make people hearing him laugh. Some of the humor was even used to deride others in a light-hearted way.
