Ecclesiastes 5:3-5
The Message
Ecclesiastes 5:3-5
The Message
3 Overwork makes for restless sleep.
Overtalk shows you up as a fool.
4-5 When you tell God you’ll do something, do it—now.
God takes no pleasure in foolish drivel. Vow it, then do it.
Far better not to vow in the first place than to vow and not pay up.
The Message (MSG)
