For in the multitude of dreams and many words there are also divers vanities: but fear thou God.

Verse 7 is found in chapter 5 of Ecclesiastes. The teaching about worship begins with an exhortation to guard one’s steps when entering the house of God. Listening is presented as more important than offering thoughtless sacrifices. The text criticizes hasty words before God and warns against making vows without intending to fulfill them. Genuine reverence is expressed through listening, verbal restraint, and responsible fulfillment rather than an abundance of religious words.

Siehst du dem Armen Unrecht tun und Recht und Gerechtigkeit im Lande wegreißen, wundere dich des Vornehmens nicht; denn es ist ein hoher Hüter über den Hohen und sind noch Höhere über die beiden.
Donde los sueños son en multitud, también lo son las vanidades y muchas las palabras; mas tú teme a Dios.
Car, s'il y a des vanités dans la multitude des songes, il y en a aussi dans beaucoup de paroles; c'est pourquoi, crains Dieu.
Certo, in moltitudine di sogni vi sono ancora delle vanità assai; così ancora ve ne son molte in molte parole; ma tu, temi Iddio.
Porque, como na multidão dos sonhos há vaidades, assim também nas muitas palavras; mas tu teme a Deus.
多夢多言,其中多有虛空,你只要敬畏上帝。
