That word is not at all in the King James Version, But is in it 46 times in the Good News Bible Version. It all depends on the version you use.

I just checked the King James Version, and it is not. However "happy" is in the bible 25 times. Genesis 30:13 the first time.

I did a quickie search at Biblegateway of five different versions. There are several verses in Psalms, and a few elsewhere, that have the word "happiness," but it depends on which translation. It is probably rendered as "joy" or "gladness" in most cases.

Eshter 8:16-For the Jews it was a time of happiness and joy, gladness and honor

Yes, but remember that happiness is an emotion and easily changed.

Take out the "ha" part, and say it out loud. You'll find it.
