² You should not speak too soon.
    Think carefully before you make a promise to God.
God is in heaven and you are here on the earth.
    So do not say too much.
³ If you worry about many things,
    you will have many dreams.
If you talk too much,
    you will say foolish things.
⁴ If you make a promise to God,
    quickly do what you have promised.
God is not pleased with foolish people.
    So give what you have promised to give.
