“For a dream cometh through the multitude of business; and a fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.”
The observation that as dreams accompany many worries, and words accompany many deeds, extends the previous verse's caution about speech into a broader observation about human tendency to fill existence with noise. The bustle of words and deeds may distract from genuine encounter with reality and the divine. This verse suggests that much human activity serves to shield us from confrontation with what truly matters.
