Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 TLB
Ecclesiastes 5:1-7 As you enter the Temple, keep your ears open and your mouth shut!
Don't be a fool who doesn't even realize it is sinful to make rash promises to God, for he is in heaven and you are only here on earth, so let your words be few.
Just as being too busy gives you nightmares, so being a fool makes you a blabbermouth.
So when you talk to God and vow to him that you will do something, don't delay in doing it, for God has no pleasure in fools. Keep your promise to him.
It is far better not to say you'll do something than to say you will and then not do it.
In that case, your mouth is making you sin. Don't try to defend yourself by telling the messenger from God that it was all a mistake to make the vow.
That would make God very angry; and he might destroy your prosperity. Dreaming instead of doing is foolishness, and there is ruin in a flood of empty words; fear God instead.
Exodus 3:1-6 One day as Moses was tending the flock of his father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, out at the edge of the desert near Horeb, the mountain of God,
suddenly the Angel of Jehovah appeared to him as a flame of fire in a bush. When Moses saw that the bush was on fire and that it didn't burn up,
he went over to investigate.
Then God called out to him, "Moses! Moses!" "Who is it?" Moses asked.
Don't come any closer," God told him. "Take off your shoes, for you are standing on holy ground.
I am the God of your fathers--the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob." (Moses covered his face with his hands, for he was afraid to look at God.)
1 Samuel 15:17-23 And Samuel told him, "When you didn't think much of yourself, God made you king of Israel.
And he sent you on an errand and told you, 'Go and completely destroy the sinners, the Amalekites, until they are all dead.'
Then why didn't you obey the Lord? Why did you rush for the loot and do exactly what God said not to?"
"But I have obeyed the Lord," Saul insisted, "I did what he told me too; and I brought King Agag but killed everyone else.
And it was only when my troops demanded it that I let them keep the best of the sheep and oxen and loot to sacrifice to the Lord."
Samuel replied, "Has the Lord as much pleasure in your burnt offerings and sacrifices and sacrifices as in your obedience? Obedience is far better than sacrifice. He is much more interested in your listening to him than than in your offering the fat of rams to him.
For rebellion is as bad as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as bad as worshipping idols. And now because you have rejected the word of Jehovah, he has rejected you from being king."
Proverbs 20:24-25 Since the Lord is directing our steps, why try to understand everything that happened along the way?
It is foolish and rash to make a promise to the Lord before counting the cost.
Proverbs 10:18-22 To hide hatred is to be a liar; to slander is to be a fool.
Don't talk so much. You keep putting your foot in your mouth. Be sensible and turn off the flow!
When a good man speaks, he is worth listening to, but the words of fools are a dime a dozen.
A godly man gives good advice, but a rebel is destroyed by lack of common sense.
The Lord's blessing is our greatest wealth. And our work adds nothing to it!"
