Ecclesiastes 5:4-5

Expanded Bible

⁴ If you make a ·promise [vow] to God, don’t ·be slow to keep [delay to fulfill] it. ·God is not happy [^LFor there is no pleasure] with fools, so ·give God what you promised [^Lfulfill what you have vowed]. ⁵ It is better not to ·promise anything than to promise something and not do it [make a vow than to make a vow and not fulfill it; Deut. 23:21; Prov. 20:25; Matt. 23:16–22].
