Ecclesiastes 5:5-7
Common English Bible
5 Better not to make a promise than to make a promise without fulfilling it. 6 Don’t let your mouth make a sinner of you, and don’t say to the messenger: “It was a mistake!” Otherwise, God may become angry at such talk and destroy what you have accomplished.
7 Remember:
When dreams multiply,
so do pointless thoughts and excessive speech.
Therefore, fear God.
