Ecclesiastes 5:2-4

Jubilee Bible 2000

² Do not be rash with thy mouth and do not let 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.

³ For out of much preoccupation comes the dream, and the voice of the fool out of a multitude of words.

⁴ ¶ When thou dost vow a vow unto God, do not defer to pay it; for he has no pleasure in fools; pay that which thou hast vowed.
