2(5:1) Suffer not thy mouth to be rash, and let thy heart not be hasty to utter any word before God; for God is in the heavens, and thou art upon the earth: therefore let thy words be few.
3(5:2) For a dream cometh through being much employed with something, and the voice of a fool cometh with a multitude of words.
4(5:3) When thou makest a vow unto God, do not delay to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in such fools: that which thou hast vowed must thou pay.
5(5:4) It is better that thou shouldst not vow, than that thou shouldst vow and not pay.
6(5:5) Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy body to sin; and say thou not before the messenger, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry because of thy voice, and destroy the work of thy hands?
7(5:6) For in the multitude of dreams and vanities there are also many words; but rather fear thou God.
8(5:7) If thou see the oppression of the poor, and violence done to justice and righteousness in a province, do not feel astounded at the matter; for one that is high watcheth over the high; and over them, the highest Power.
9(5:8) But the advantage of a land in all things is, a king who is subject to the country.
10(5:9) He that loveth money will never be satisfied with money; nor he that loveth abundance, with any increase. Also this is vanity.
11(5:10) When prosperity increaseth, those that consume it likewise increase: and what advantage is there to its owner, saving to see it with his eyes?
12(5:11) Sweet is the sleep of the laboring man, whether he eat little or much; but the overabundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.
