Ecclesiastes 5:3

Bible in Basic English 1965

As a dream comes from much business, so the voice of a foolish man comes with words in great number.

See the chapter Copy

Are all these words to go unanswered? and is a man seen to be right because he is full of talk?

Where there is much talk there will be no end to sin, but he who keeps his mouth shut does wisely.

Knowledge is dropping from the tongue of the wise; but from the mouth of the foolish comes a stream of foolish words.

Say to the children of Israel, If a man makes a special oath, you will give your decision as to the value of the persons for the Lord.
