Ecclesiastes 5 - NRSV & NASB

When you make a vow to God, do not delay fulfilling it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Fulfill what you vow.When you make a vow to God, do not be late in paying it; for He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow!
The lover of money will not be satisfied with money; nor the lover of wealth, with gain. This also is vanity.One who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor one who loves abundance with its income. This too is futility.
When goods increase, those who eat them increase; and what gain has their owner but to see them with his eyes?When good things increase, those who consume them increase. So what is the advantage to their owners except to look at them?
As they came from their mother's womb, so they shall go again, naked as they came; they shall take nothing for their toil, which they may carry away with their hands.As he came naked from his mother’s womb, so he will return as he came. He will take nothing from the fruit of his labor that he can carry in his hand.
This is what I have seen to be good: it is fitting to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of the life God gives us; for this is our lot.Here is what I have seen to be good and fitting: to eat, to drink, and enjoy oneself in all one’s labor in which he labors under the sun during the few years of his life which God has given him; for this is his reward.
Likewise all to whom God gives wealth and possessions and whom he enables to enjoy them, and to accept their lot and find enjoyment in their toil—this is the gift of God.Furthermore, as for every person to whom God has given riches and wealth, He has also given him the opportunity to enjoy them and to receive his reward and rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God.
