Ecclesiastes 5:1-3
112Guard your steps as you go to the house of God, and approach to listen rather than to offer the 3sacrifice of fools; for they do not know that they are doing evil. 24Do not be 5quick with your mouth or 6impulsive in thought to bring up a matter in the presence of God. For God is in heaven and you are on the earth; therefore let your 7words be few. 3For the dream comes through much 8effort, and the voice of a 9fool through many words.
