Ecclesiastes 5:1-3
1Be careful what you do when you go to the temple of God; draw near to listen rather than to offer a sacrifice like fools, for they do not realize that they are doing wrong.
2Do not be rash with your mouth or hasty in your heart to bring up a matter before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth! Therefore, let your words be few.
3Just as dreams come when there are many cares, so the rash vow of a fool occurs when there are many words.
