Ecclesiastes 5:1-5

¹Be not rash with thy mouth, nor let thine heart be hastie to vtter a thing before God: for God is in the heauens, and thou art on the earth: therefore let thy wordes be fewe.

²For as a dreame commeth by the multitude of businesse: so the voyce of a foole is in the multitude of wordes.

³When thou hast vowed a vowe to God, deferre not to pay it: for he deliteth not in fooles: pay therefore that thou hast vowed.

⁴It is better that thou shouldest not vowe, then that thou shouldest vow and not pay it.

⁵Suffer not thy mouth to make thy flesh to sinne: neither say before the Angel, that this is ignorance: wherefore shall God bee angry by thy voyce, and destroy the worke of thine hands?
