Vanities in divine service,1 ¶ Keepºª thy footº when² thou goest¹ª² to² the houseº of God,º and be more ready¹² to hear,ºª than to giveºª² the sacrificeº of fools:º for they considerºª not² that² they doºª evil.º 2 Be not² rashºª with² thy mouth,º and let not² thine heartº be hastyºª to utterºª [any] thingº beforeº God:º for² Godº [is] in heaven,º and thou² upon² earth:º therefore²² let thy wordsº be² few.º 3 For² a dreamº comethºª through the multitudeº of business;º and a fool'sº voiceº [is known] by multitudeº of words.º 4 When² thou vowestºª a vowº unto God,º deferºª not² to payºª it; for² [he hath] no² pleasureº in fools:º payºª² that which² thou hast vowed.ºª 5 Betterº [is it] that² thou shouldest not² vow,ºª than that thou shouldest vowºª²² and not² pay.ºª 6 Sufferºª not²² thy mouthº to cause² thy fleshº to sin;ºª neither² sayºª thou beforeº the angel,º that² it² [was] an error:º wherefore² should Godº be angryºª at² thy voice,º and destroyºª² the workº of thine hands?º 7 For² in the multitudeº of dreamsº and manyºª wordsº [there are] also [divers] vanities:º but² fearºª thou² God.º [1] Gn 4:3; 28:16; Ex 3:5; Lv 10:3; Jsh 5:15; 1S 13:12; 15:21; 2Ch 26:16; Ps 50:8; 89:7; Pv 15:8; 21:27; Is 1:12; 66:3; Jr 7:21; Ho 6:6; Mal 1:10; Ac 10:33; 17:11; 1Co 11:22; He 10:26; 12:28; Jm 1:19; 1P 2:1.
