Revised Webster's Bible
Ecclesiastes 5:2-5
2Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thy heart be hasty to utter any thing before God: for God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few.1 3For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool’s voice is known by a multitude of words.
4When thou vowest a vow to God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou hast vowed. 5Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
