Ecclesiastes 5:7
| ← Ecclesiastes 5:6 | Ecclesiastes 5:7 (KJV) | Ecclesiastes 5:8 → |
|---|---|---|
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?
|
For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear thou God.
|
If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; and there be higher than they.
