Ecclesiastes 5:4-6
Revised Standard Version
4 When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow. 5 It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not pay. 6 Let not your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say before the messenger[a] that it was a mistake; why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?
