Lyrics
1 Keep thy foot when thou
goest to the house of God,
and be more ready to hear,
than to give the sacrifice
of fools: for they
consider not that they do
evil.
2 Be not rash with thy
mouth, and let not thine
heart be hasty to utter
any thing before God: for
God is in heaven, and thou
upon earth: therefore let
thy words be few.
3 For a dream cometh
through the multitude of
business; and a fool's
voice is known by
multitude of words.
4 When thou vowest a vow
unto God, defer not to pay
it; for he hath no
pleasure in fools: pay
that which thou hast
vowed.
5 Better is it that thou
shouldest not vow, than
that thou shouldest vow
and not pay.
6 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?
7 For in the multitude of
dreams and many words
there are also divers
vanities: but fear thou
God.
8 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.
9 Moreover the profit of
the earth is for all: the
king himself is served by
the field.
10 He that loveth silver
shall not be satisfied
with silver; nor he that
loveth abundance with
increase: this is also
vanity.
11 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?
12 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.
13 There is a sore evil
which I have seen under
the sun, namely, riches
kept for the owners
thereof to their hurt.
14 But those riches perish
by evil travail: and he
begetteth a son, and there
is nothing in his hand.
15 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. 16 And this also
is a sore evil, that in
all points as he came, so
shall he go: and what
profit hath he that hath
laboured for the wind?
17 All his days also he
eateth in darkness, and he
hath much sorrow and wrath
with his sickness.
18 Behold that which I
have seen: it is good and
comely for one to eat and
to drink, and to enjoy the
good of all his labour
that he taketh under the
sun all the days of his
life, which God giveth
him: for it is his
portion.
19 Every man also to whom
God hath given riches and
wealth, and hath given him
power to eat thereof, and
to take his portion, and
to rejoice in his labour;
this is the gift of God.
20 For he shall not much
remember the days of his
life; because God
answereth him in the joy
of his heart.
