4 Mosebog 30
1 Moses talte fremdeles til Overhovederne for Israeliternes Stammer og sagde: Dette er, hvad HERREN har paabudt:
Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which YHWH has commanded.
2 Naar en Mand aflægger et Løfte til HERREN eller ved Ed forpligter sig til Afholdenhed i en eller anden Retning, maa han ikke bryde sit Ord, men skal holde hvert Ord, der er udgaaet af hans Mund.
When a man vows a vow to YHWH, or swears an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word; he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.
3 Men naar en Kvinde aflægger et Løfte til HERREN og forpligter sig til Afholdenhed i en eller anden Retning, medens hun endnu i sine unge Aar opholder sig i sin Faders Hus,
"Also when a woman vows a vow to YHWH, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father's house, in her youth,
4 og hendes Fader, naar han hører om hendes Løfte og den Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig, ikke siger noget til hende, saa skal alle hendes Løfter staa ved Magt, og enhver Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig, skal staa ved Magt.
and her father hears her vow, and her bond with which she has bound her soul, and her father holds his peace at her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she has bound her soul shall stand.
5 Hvis hendes Fader derimod formener hende det, samme Dag han faar det at høre, skal ingen af hendes Løfter eller af de Forpligtelser til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig, staa ved Magt, og HERREN skal tilgive hende, fordi hendes Fader har forment hende det.
But if her father disallow her in the day that he hears, none of her vows, or of her bonds with which she has bound her soul, shall stand: and YHWH will forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
6 Hvis hun bliver gift medens der paahviler hende Løfter eller en Forpligtelse, hun har paataget sig ved et uoverlagt Ord,
"If she has a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul,
7 og hendes Mand ikke siger noget til hende, samme Dag han faar det at høre, skal hendes Løfter staa ved Magt, og den Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig, skal staa ved Magt.
and her husband hears it, and holds his peace at her in the day that he hears it; then her vows shall stand, and her bonds with which she has bound her soul shall stand.
8 Hvis hendes Mand derimod formener hende det, samme Dag han faar det at høre, gør han dermed det Løfte, der paahviler hende, og den Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig ved et uoverlagt Ord, ugyldig, og HERREN skal tilgive hende.
But if her husband forbids her in the day that he hears it, then he shall make void her vow which is on her, and the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul: and YHWH will forgive her.
9 En Enkes og en forstødt Hustrus Løfte, enhver Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig, er bindende for hende.
"But the vow of a widow, or of her who is divorced, everything with which she has bound her soul, shall stand against her.
10 Hvis en Kvinde i sin Mands Hus aflægger et Løfte eller ved Ed forpligter sig til Afholdenhed i en eller anden Retning,
"If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,
11 og hendes Mand, naar han faar det at høre, ikke siger noget til hende og ikke formener hende det, skal alle hendes Løfter staa ved Magt, og enhver Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig, skal staa ved Magt.
and her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and did not disallow her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she bound her soul shall stand.
12 Hvis hendes Mand derimod, samme Dag han faar det at høre, gør det ugyldigt, saa staar intet af det, hun har udtalt, ved Magt, hverken hendes Løfter eller den paatagne Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed; hendes Mand har gjort dem ugyldige, og HERREN skal tilgive hende.
But if her husband made them null and void in the day that he heard them, then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband has made them void; and YHWH will forgive her.
13 Ethvert Løfte og enhver ved Ed paatagen Forpligtelse til Faste kan hendes Mand stadfæste eller gøre ugyldig.
Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
14 Men hvis hendes Mand tier stille over for hende til næste Dag, stadfæster han alle hendes Løfter og alle de Forpligtelser til Afholdenhed, hun har paataget sig; han har stadfæstet dem, thi han sagde ikke noget til hende, samme Dag han fik det at høre;
But if her husband says nothing to her from day to day, then he establishes all her vows, or all her bonds, which are on her: he has established them, because he says nothing to her on the day that he heard them.
15 og hvis han vil gøre dem ugyldige, en Tid efter at han fik det at høre, skal han undgælde for hendes Brøde.
But if he shall make them null and void after that he has heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity."
16 Det er de Anordninger, HERREN gav Moses om Forholdet mellem Mand og Hustru og mellem Fader og Datter, medens hun endnu i sine unge Aar opholder sig i hans Hus.
These are the statutes, which YHWH commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father's house.
