our mouths were filled with laughter

(Some words not found in UHB: then filled_with laughter mouth_of,our and,tongue_of,our shouts_of_joy then said in/on/at/with,nations great YHWH for=doing with these )

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

our tongues with singing

(Some words not found in UHB: then filled_with laughter mouth_of,our and,tongue_of,our shouts_of_joy then said in/on/at/with,nations great YHWH for=doing with these )

The verbs “were filled” can be stated clearly. Singing is spoken of as if their tongues were containers and singing was in them. Alternate translation: “our tongues were filled with singing” or “we sang songs of joy” (See also: figs-metaphor)

they said among the nations

(Some words not found in UHB: then filled_with laughter mouth_of,our and,tongue_of,our shouts_of_joy then said in/on/at/with,nations great YHWH for=doing with these )

“the people of the nations said among themselves.” The pronoun is used before introducing what it references. This is very unusual.
