Ecclesiastes 5:6

World English Bible British Edition · Berean Standard Bible

5:6
Don’t allow your mouth to lead you into sin. Don’t protest before the messenger that this was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?
Do not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, and do not tell the messenger (note: Or angel) that your vow was a mistake. Why should God be angry with your words and destroy the work of your hands?
