Keep your foot from sin when you go to the house of God:
Ecclesiastes 5:1
Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God, and be
more ready to hear, than to
give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they
do evil.
Do not make quick vows to God. Let your words be few before
God:
Ecclesiastes 5:2
Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty
to utter anything before God:
For God is in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy
words be few.
Be sure to pay vows to God:
Ecclesiastes 5:4
When thou vowest a vow unto God, defer not to pay it; for he
hath no pleasure in fools:
Pay that which thou hast vowed.
Better not to vow than to vow and refuse to pay it:
Ecclesiastes 5:5
Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou
shouldest vow and not pay.
Say not to the recording angel that your sin was only an
error:
Ecclesiastes 5:6
Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say
thou before the angel, that it
was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice,
and destroy the work of thine hands?
