BRN That unrighteous soul, which determines with his lips to do evil or to do good according to whatsoever a man may determine with an oath, and it shall have escaped his notice, and he shall afterwards know it, and so he should sin in some one of these things:—
BrLXX Ἡ ψυχὴ ἡ ἄνομος, ἡ διαστέλλουσα τοῖς χείλεσι κακοποιῆσαι ἢ καλῶς ποιῆσαι κατὰ πάντα ὅσα ἐὰν διαστείλῃ ὁ ἄνθρωπος μεθʼ ὅρκου, καὶ λάθῃ αὐτὸν πρὸ ὀφθαλμῶν, καὶ οὗτος γνῷ, καὶ ἁμάρτῃ ἕν τι τούτων.

5:4 Oaths could be taken in the name of the Lord. However, a foolish vow, one thoughtlessly made, was a blasphemous misuse of the Lord’s name (Exod 20:7). Accordingly, vows must be fulfilled (see Num 30:2; Deut 23:21-23; Eccl 5:4-6).

creature that/for/because/then/when swears to,rashly in/on/at/with,lips to,do_evil or to,do_good
This means to swear an oath without thinking seriously about it. It implies that after the person swears the oath, he either cannot fulfill it or he does not really want to fulfill it.

Alternate translation: “a person hastily swears an oath with two lips without the intention to do what he promised, to do evil or to do good”
