Ecc Ecclesiastes, chapter Ecclesiastes, chapter 5
Keep youi foot when youi go to the house of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], and be more ready to hear, than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they consider not that they do evil.Act 7:33; 1Sa 15:22; Hos 6:6
Be not rash with youi mouth, and let not youi heart be hasty to utter [any] thing before God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]: for God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] [is] in heaven, and youi upon earth: therefore let youi words be few.Jas 1:19; Pro 10:19; Mat 6:7
For a dream comes through the multitude of business; and a fool’s voice [is known] by multitude of words.
When youi vow a vow unto God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], defer not to pay it; for [he has] no pleasure in fools: pay that which youi have vowed.Deu 23:21
Better [is it] that youi should not vow, than that youi should vow and not pay.Act 5:4
Suffer not youi mouth to cause youi flesh to sin; neither say youi before the angel, that it [was] an error: wherefore should God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] be angry at youi voice, and destroy the work of youi hands?
For in the multitude of dreams and many words [there are] also [diverse] vanities: but fear youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
If youi 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.Eph 6:9
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.
When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good [is there] to the owners thereof, saving the beholding [of them] with their eyes?1Jn 2:16
The sleep of a labouring man [is] sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.
There is a sore evil [which] I have seen under the sun, [namely], riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt.Job 20:20
But those riches perish by evil travail: and he begets a son, and [there is] nothing in his hand.Mrk 8:36
As he came forth of his mother’s womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.Job 1:21; 1Ti 6:7
And this also [is] a sore evil, [that] in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit has he that has laboured for the wind?
All his days also he eats in darkness, and [he has] much sorrow and wrath with his sickness.
Behold [that] which I have seen: [it is] good and comely (attractive; proper (one’s own; peculiar; particular); becoming) [for one] to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he takes under the sun all the days of his life, which God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] gives him: for it [is] his portion.Ecc 2:24
Every man also to whom God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] has given riches and wealth, and has given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this [is] the gift of God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
For he shall not much remember the days of his life; because God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] answer [him] in the joy of his heart.Php 4:6
