Ecclesiastes 5:5

It is better that you should not vow than that you should vow and not pay.

Proverbs 20:25


It is a trap for a man to [speak a vow of consecration and] say rashly, “It is holy!”
And [not until] afterward consider [whether he can fulfill it].

Acts 5:4

As long as it remained [unsold], did it not remain your own [to do with as you pleased]? And after it was sold, was the money not under your control? Why is it that you have conceived this act [of hypocrisy and deceit] in your heart? You have not [simply] lied to people, but to God.”

Deuteronomy 23:22

But if you refrain from making a vow, that would not be [counted as] sin in you.
