Ecclesiastes 5:1-2

Keep
<08104> (8798)
thy foot
<07272>
when thou goest
<03212> (8799)
to the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,
and be more ready
<07138>
to hear
<08085> (8800)_,
than to give
<05414> (8800)
the sacrifice
<02077>
of fools
<03684>_:
for they consider
<03045> (8802)
not that they do
<06213> (8800)
evil
<07451>_.
Be not rash
<0926> (8762)
with thy mouth
<06310>_,
and let not thine heart
<03820>
be hasty
<04116> (8762)
to utter
<03318> (8687)
[any] thing
<01697>
before
<06440>
God
<0430>_:
for God
<0430>
[is] in heaven
<08064>_,
and thou upon earth
<0776>_:
therefore let thy words
<01697>
be few
<04592>_.

Ecclesiastes 5:4-5

When thou vowest
<05087> (8799)
a vow
<05088>
unto God
<0430>_,
defer
<0309> (8762)
not to pay
<07999> (8763)
it; for [he hath] no pleasure
<02656>
in fools
<03684>_:
pay
<07999> (8761)
that which thou hast vowed
<05087> (8799)_.
Better
<02896>
[is it] that thou shouldest not vow
<05087> (8799)_,
than that thou shouldest vow
<05087> (8799)
and not pay
<07999> (8762)_.
