Ecclesiastes 5:5-6
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 5
5
It is better that you not vow, than vow and not pay.
6
Do not let your speech cause you to sin, and do not say in the presence of the messenger
of God
that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry on account of your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?
King James Version
Chapter 5
5
Better
is it
that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest vow and not pay.
6
Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it
was
an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 5
5
Better that you do not vow than that you vow and not fulfill it.
6
Do not let your mouth bring guilt on you, and do not say in the presence of the messenger that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry with your words and destroy the work of your hands?
New Living Translation
Chapter 5
5
It is better to say nothing than to make a promise and not keep it.
6
Don’t let your mouth make you sin. And don’t defend yourself by telling the Temple messenger that the promise you made was a mistake. That would make God angry, and he might wipe out everything you have achieved.
English Standard Version
Chapter 5
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 that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice and destroy the work of your hands?
New International Version
Chapter 5
5
It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfill it.
6
Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, 'My vow was a mistake.' Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands?
New King James Version
Chapter 5
5
Better not to vow than to vow and not pay.
6
Do not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, nor say before the messenger
of God
that it
was
an error. Why should God be angry at your excuse and destroy the work of your hands?
