Ecclesiastes 5:4-5

⁴When you make a promise to God, don’t delay in following through, for God takes no pleasure in fools. Keep all the promises you make to him.d

⁵It is better to say nothing than to make a promise and not keep it.e

Ecclesiastes 5 shifts from the earlier reflections on life's futility to a series of practical warnings about worship, wealth, and the fear of God. The Teacher cautions against hasty vows and empty religious words, urging reverence before God. He then exposes the emptiness of wealth
