American King James Version
"For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear you God. ¶ "
— Ecclesiastes 5:7, American King James Version
“For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear thou God.”
“For in the multitude of dreams there are vanities, and in many words: but fear thou God. ”
“For in the multitude of dreams there are vanities, as well as in many words: but you must fear God.”
“Just as there is futility in many dreams, so also in many words. Therefore, fear God!”
“If thou shalt see the oppressions of the poor, and violent judgments, and justice perverted in the province, wonder not at this matter: for he that is high hath another higher, and there are others still higher than these:”
“Because much talk comes from dreams and things of no purpose. But let the fear of God be in you.”
“For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear thou God.”
When you vow a vow to God, defer not to pay it; for he has no pleasure in fools: pay that which you have vowed.
Better is it that you should not vow, than that you should vow and not pay.
Suffer not your mouth to cause your flesh to sin; neither say you before the angel, that it was an error: why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?
For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear you God. ¶
If you see 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 regards; and there be higher than they. ¶
Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served by the field.
He that loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loves abundance with increase: this is also vanity.
