Ecclesiastes 5:4-6

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁴ When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it, for he takes no delight in fools. Fulfill whatever you have vowed. ⁵ Better that you do not vow, than that you do make a vow and do not fulfill it. ⁶ Do not let your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say to the temple official that the vow was a mistake. Why should God be angry because of what you say and ruin the work your hands have done?
