< Numbers 30 >
1 And he said to the leaders of the tribes of the sons of Israel: “This is the word, which the Lord has instructed:
Mosis kpọkọtara ndị ndu ebo Izrel niile gwa ha sị: “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu:
2 If any man makes a vow to the Lord, or binds himself by an oath, he shall not make his word null and void, but all that he has promised, he shall fulfill.
Mgbe nwoke ọbụla kwere Onyenwe anyị nkwa, maọbụ ṅụọ iyi ime ihe ọbụla, ọ gaghị emebi nkwa dị otu a. Kama ọ ga-emezu ihe niile dịka o kwuru ya.
3 If a woman, who is in her father’s house, vows anything, or binds herself by an oath, and she is still in a state of childhood, if her father knew of the vow which she has promised or of the oath by which she has obligated her soul, and he kept silent, she shall be liable to the vow:
“Ọ bụrụ na nwaagbọghọ nọ nʼụlọ nna ya ekwe Onyenwe anyị nkwa maọbụ ṅụọ iyi ime ihe ọbụla,
4 whatever she has promised or swore, she shall complete in deed.
ọ bụrụ na nna ya anụ mgbe ọ na-ekwe nkwa maọbụ ṅụọ iyi ime ihe ahụ, ma gba ya nkịtị, onye dị otu a aghaghị imezu nkwa niile ndị ahụ o kwere.
5 But if her father, as soon as he had heard it, had contradicted it, both her vows and her oaths shall be nullified, neither shall she be held liable to the promise, because her father had contradicted it.
Ma ọ bụrụ na nna ya ajụ mgbe ọ nụrụ banyere ya na ọ gaghị emezu nkwa dị otu ahụ, mgbe ahụ, nkwa ahụ maọbụ iyi ọ ṅụrụ ga-abụ ihe efu. Onyenwe anyị ga-agbaghakwara ya, nʼihi na nna ya jụrụ na ọ ga-emezu nkwa ya.
6 If she has a husband, and she has vowed anything, then, once the word has gone out of her mouth, she will have obligated her soul by an oath.
“Ọ bụrụ na o mesịa lụọ dị, mgbe ọ ṅụsịrị iyi, maọbụ kwee nkwa nzuzu o kwesiri imezu,
7 On the day that her husband will hear of it, and yet not contradict it, she shall be liable to the vow, and she shall repay whatever she has promised.
di ya nụ banyere ya ma gba ya nkịtị nʼụbọchị ahụ ọ nụrụ ya, nkwa ahụ ga-eguzogide, ọ ga-emezu ya.
8 But if, as soon as he hears it, he contradicts it, then he will have caused her promises, and the words by which she had bound her soul, to be null and void. The Lord will be favorable to her.
Ma ọ bụrụ na di ya ajụ ịnabata nkwa ahụ, maọbụ ọṅụṅụ iyi nzuzu ahụ, ọjụjụ di ya jụrụ nkwa ahụ ga-eme ka iyi ahụ maọbụ nkwa ahụ ghara ịdị ire. Onyenwe anyị ga-agbaghakwara ya.
9 Widows and divorced women shall repay whatever they have vowed.
“Ma nkwa ọbụla nke nwanyị di ya nwụrụ maọbụ nwanyị ya na di ya kewara, ihe ọbụla nke o ji ọnụ ya kwuo ka ọ ghaghị imezu.
10 If a wife in the house of her husband has bound herself by a vow or an oath,
“Ma ọ bụrụ na nwanyị ya na di ya bi e kwee nkwa maọbụ site na kwagide ṅụọ iyi,
11 if her husband heard it and remained silent, and he did not contradict the promise, she shall repay what she had promised.
di ya nụ ihe banyere ya, ma gba nkịtị maọbụ ogbochighị ya, mgbe ahụ, ịṅụ iyi na nkwa ndị ahụ niile nke o kwere ga-eguzo.
12 But if he promptly contradicts it, she shall not be held liable to the promise. For her husband has contradicted it. And the Lord will be favorable to her.
Ma ọ bụrụ na di ya jụrụ ikwenye ka nkwa ahụ dịgide nʼụbọchị mbụ ọ nụrụ ya, nkwa ahụ maọbụ ọṅụṅụ iyi ahụ aghọọla ihe efu. Onyenwe anyị ga-agbaghakwara ya.
13 If she has vowed or bound herself by oath, in order to afflict her soul by fasting, or by abstaining from other things, it shall be for the arbitration of her husband, as to whether or not she may do it.
Ya mere, di ya nwere ike ịjụ, maọbụ mesie nkwa ahụ, maọbụ iyi ahụ ọ ṅụrụ ike.
14 But if the husband, upon hearing it, remains silent, and he delays judgment until another day, whatever she had vowed or promised, she shall repay, because when he first heard it, he remained silent.
Ọ bụrụ na di ya ekwughị ihe ọbụla site nʼotu ụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị ọzọ, mgbe ahụ, o gosiri na o kwenyere ka nwunye ya mezuo nkwa maọbụ iyi ndị ahụ niile.
15 And if he contradicted it only sometime after he had known about it, he shall bear his iniquity.”
Ọ bụrụ na o mesịa jụ na nwunye ya agaghị emezu nkwa ahụ ọ kwere, ikpe ọmụma niile dị nʼihi emezughị nkwa ahụ dị ya nʼisi.”
16 These are the laws which the Lord has appointed to Moses, between a husband and a wife, between a father and a daughter, who is still in the state of childhood or who remains in her father’s house.
Ndị a bụ usoro iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis banyere mmekọrịta nke nwoke na nwunye ya. Ọ metụtakwara nna na nwa ya nwanyị onye bi nʼụlọ ya.
