Ecclesiastes 5:4-6

Complete Jewish Bible

^4 (5) Better not to make a vow than to make a vow and not discharge it. ^5 (6) Don’t let your words make you guilty, and don’t tell the temple official that you made the vow by mistake. Why give God reason to be angry at what you say and destroy what you have accomplished? ^6 (7) For [this is what happens when there are too] many dreams, aimless activities and words. Instead, just fear God!
