3 For a dream comes when there is a great burden,and a foolish voice when there are many words.
4 When you make a vow to God, do not delay in fulfilling it because He has no pleasure in fools. Fulfill what you have vowed.
5 Better it is that you do not make a vow than you make a vow and not fulfill it.
6 Do not let your mouth cause you to sin, and do not say before the messenger that it was an error. Why should God be angry with your words and destroy the work of your hands?
7 For when there is an abundance of dreams and futilities, then words increase too. Therefore it is God you should fear.
8 If you see in a district the oppression of the poor and the violent perversion of justice and righteousness, do not be astounded at the matter; for the high official is watched over by an even higher official, and there are even higher officials over them.
9 But this is an advantage to the land in every way, like a king committed to a cultivated field.
