The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Risus dolore miscebitur, et extrema gaudii luctus occupat.
Septuagint (Swete)
ἐν εὐφροσύναις οὐ προσμίγνυται λύπη, τελευταία δὲ χαρὰ εἰς πένθος ἔρχεται.
Hebrew (WLC)
גַּם בִּשְׂח֥וֹק יִכְאַב לֵ֑ב וְאַחֲרִיתָ֖הּ שִׂמְחָ֣ה תוּגָֽה

Haydock's commentary

Laughter. Septuagint, "with content sorrow is not mixed." (Haydock)

Joy. Such is the condition of earthly things. (Pindar, Pyth. viii.)
