"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. Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter [i]any[/i] thing before God: for God [i]is[/i] in heaven, and thou upon earth: therefore let thy words be few. For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool's voice [i]is known[/i] by multitude of words."

- Ecclesiastes 5:1-3(KJV)
