4 When you make a promise to God, don't fail to keep it, since he isn't pleased with fools. Keep what you promise—

5 it's better that you don't promise than that you do promise and not follow through.

6 Never let your mouth cause you to sin and don't proclaim in the presence of the angel, |My promise was a mistake,| for why should God be angry at your excuse and destroy what you've undertaken?
