4 Mosebog 30
1 Moses talte fremdeles til Overhovederne for Israelitternes Stammer og sagde: Dette er, hvad HERREN har påbudt:
And Moses speaks to the heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel, saying, “This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded:
2 Når en Mand aflægger et Løfte til HERREN eller ved Ed forpligter sig til Afholdenhed i en eller anden Retning, må han ikke bryde sit Ord, men skal holde hvert Ord, der er udgået af hans Mund.
When a man vows a vow to YHWH, or has sworn an oath to bind a bond on his soul, he does not defile his word; he does according to all that is going out from his mouth.
3 Men når en Kvinde aflægger et Løfte til HERREN og forpligter sig til Afholdenhed i en eller anden Retning, medens hun endnu i sine unge År opholder sig i sin Faders Hus.
And when a woman vows a vow to YHWH, and has bound a bond in the house of her father in her youth,
4 og hendes Fader, når han hører om hendes Løfte og den Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig, ikke siger noget til hende, så skal alle hendes Løfter stå ved Magt, og enhver Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig, skal stå ved Magt.
and her father has heard her vow and her bond which she has bound on her soul, and her father has kept silent to her, then all her vows have been established, and every bond which she has bound on her soul is established.
5 Hvis hendes Fader derimod formener hende det, samme Dag han får det at høre, skal ingen af hendes Løfter eller af de Forpligtelser til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig, stå ved Magt, og HERREN skal tilgive hende, fordi hendes Fader har forment hende det.
And if her father has disallowed her in the day of his hearing, none of her vows and her bonds which she has bound on her soul are established, and YHWH is propitious to her, for her father has disallowed her.
6 Hvis hun bliver gift medens der påhviler hende Løfter eller en Forpligtelse, hun har påtaget sig ved et uoverlagt Ord,
And if she is having a husband, and her vows [are] on her, or a wrongful utterance [on] her lips which she has bound on her soul,
7 og hendes Mand ikke siger noget til hende, samme Dag han får det at høre, skal hendes Løfter stå ved Magt, og den Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig, skal stå ved Magt.
and her husband has heard, and in the day of his hearing he has kept silent to her, then her vows have been established, and her bonds which she has bound on her soul are established.
8 Hvis hendes Mand derimod formener hende det, samme Dag han får det at høre, gør han dermed det Løfte, der påhviler hende, og den Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig ved et uoverlagt Ord, ugyldig, og HERREN skal tilgive hende.
And if in the day of her husband’s hearing he disallows her, then he has broken her vow which [is] on her, and the wrongful utterance of her lips which she has bound on her soul, and YHWH is propitious to her.
9 En Enkes og en forstødt Hustrus Løfte, enhver Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig, er bindende for hende.
As for the vow of a widow or cast-out woman, all that she has bound on her soul is established on her.
10 Hvis en Kvinde i sin Mands Hus aflægger et Løfte eller ved Ed forpligter sig til Afholdenhed i en eller anden Retning,
And if she has vowed [in] the house of her husband, or has bound a bond on her soul with an oath,
11 og hendes Mand, når han får det at høre, ikke siger noget til hende og ikke formener hende det, skal alle hendes Løfter stå ved Magt, og enhver Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed, hun har påtaget sig, skal stå ved Magt.
and her husband has heard, and has kept silent to her—he has not disallowed her—then all her vows have been established, and every bond which she has bound on her soul is established.
12 Hvis hendes Mand derimod, samme Dag han får det at høre, gør det ugyldigt, så står intet af det, hun har udtalt, ved Magt, hverken hendes Løfter eller den påtagne Forpligtelse til Afholdenhed; hendes Mand har gjort dem ugyldige, og HERREN skal tilgive hende.
And if her husband certainly breaks them in the day of his hearing, none of the outgoing of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, is established—her husband has broken them—and YHWH is propitious to her.
13 Ethvert Løfte og enhver ved Ed påtagen Forpligtelse til Faste kan hendes Mand stadfæste eller gøre ugyldig.
Every vow and every oath—a bond to humble a soul—her husband establishes it, or her husband breaks it;
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 påtaget sig; han har stadfæstet dem, thi han sagde ikke noget til hende, samme Dag han fik det at høre;
and if her husband certainly keeps silent to her from day to day, then he has established all her vows or all her bonds which [are] on her; he has established them, for he has kept silent to her in the day of his hearing;
15 og hvis han vil gøre dem ugyldige, en Tid efter at han fik det at høre, skal han undgælde for hendes Brøde.
and if he indeed breaks them after his hearing, then he has borne 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 År opholder sig i hans Hus.
These [are] the statutes which YHWH has commanded Moses between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, in her youth, [in] the house of her father.
