Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 CEB


Listen and Speak Carefully

Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 Watch your steps when you go to God's house. It's more acceptable to listen to offer the fools' sacrifice--they have no idea that they're acting wrongly.

Don't be quick with your mouth or say anything hastily before God, because God is in heaven, but you are on earth. Therefore, let your words be few.

Remember; Dreams come with many cares, and the voice of fools with many words.

When you make a promise to God, fulfill it without delay because God has no pleasure in fools. Fulfill what you promise.

Better not to make a promise than to make a promise without fulfilling it.

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.

Remember; When dreams multiply, so do pointless thoughts and excessive speech. Therefore, fear God.

Moses at the Burning Bush

Exodus 3:1-6 Moses was taking care of the flock for his father-in-law Jethro, Midian's priest. He led his flock out to the edge of the desert, and he came to God's mountain called Horeb.

The LORD's messenger appeared to him in a flame of fire in the middle of a bush. Moses saw that the bush was in flames, but it didn't burn up.

Then Moses said to himself, Let me check out this amazing sight and found out why the bush isn't burning up.

When the LORD saw that he was coming to look, God called to him out of the bush, "Moses, Moses!" Moses said, "I'm here."

Then the LORD said, "Don't come any closer! Take off your sandals, because you are standing on holy ground."

He continued, "I am the God of your father, Abraham's God, Isaac's God, and Jacob's God." Moses hid his face because he was afraid to look at God.

1 Samuel 15:17-23 Samuel said, "Even if you think you are insignificant, aren't you the leader of Israel's tribes? The LORD anointed you king over Israel.

The LORD sent you on a mission, instructing you, 'Go, and put the sinful Amalekites under the ban. Fight against them until you've wiped them out."

Why didn't you obey the LORD? You did evil in the LORD's eyes when you tore into the plunder!?

"But I did obey the LORD!" Saul protested to Samuel. "I went on the mission the LORD sent me on. I captured Agag the Amalekite king, and I put the Amalekites under the ban.

Yes, the troops took sheep and cattle from the plunder--the very best items placed under the ban--but in order to sacrifice them to the LORD your God at Gilgal."

Then Samuel replied, "Does the LORD want entirely burned offerings and sacrifices as much as obedience to the LORD? Listen to this: obeying is better than sacrificing, paying attention is better than fat from rams,

because rebellion is as bad as the sin of divination; arrogance is like the evil of idolatry. Because you have rejected what the LORD said, he has rejected you as king."

Proverbs 20: 24-25 A person's steps are from the LORD; how then can people understand their path"

It is a snare to say rashly, "It is holy." and only reflect after making the promise.

Proverbs 10:18-22 Lying lips conceal hate, and those who spread slander are fools.

With lots of words comes wrongdoing, but the wise restrain their lips.

The tongue of the righteous is choice silver, but the heart of the wicked lacks value.

The lips of the righteous nourished many people, but fools who lack sense will die.

The LORD's blessing makes a person rich, and no trouble is added to it.
