Ecclesiastes 5:4-8

When thou vowest
<05087> (8799)
a vow
<05088>
unto God
<0430>_,
defer
<0309> (8762)
not to pay
<07999> (8763)
it; for [he hath] no pleasure
<02656>
in fools
<03684>_:
pay
<07999> (8761)
that which thou hast vowed
<05087> (8799)_.
Better
<02896>
[is it] that thou shouldest not vow
<05087> (8799)_,
than that thou shouldest vow
<05087> (8799)
and not pay
<07999> (8762)_.
Suffer
<05414> (8799)
not thy mouth
<06310>
to cause thy flesh
<01320>
to sin
<02398> (8687)_;
neither say
<0559> (8799)
thou before
<06440>
the angel
<04397>_,
that it [was] an error
<07684>_:
wherefore should God
<0430>
be angry
<07107> (8799)
at thy voice
<06963>_,
and destroy
<02254> (8765)
the work
<04639>
of thine hands
<03027>_?
For in the multitude
<07230>
of dreams
<02472>
and many
<07235> (8687)
words
<01697>
[there are] also [divers] vanities
<01892>_:
but fear
<03372> (8798)
thou God
<0430>_.
If thou seest
<07200> (8799)
the oppression
<06233>
of the poor
<07326> (8802)_,
and violent
<01499>
perverting of judgment
<04941>
and justice
<06664>
in a province
<04082>_,
marvel
<08539> (8799)
not at the matter
<02656>_:
for [he that is] higher
<01364>
than the highest
<01364>
regardeth
<08104> (8802)_;
and [there be] higher
<01364>
than they
<05921>_.
{at the... Heb. at the will, or, purpose}
