< Numbers 30 >

1 And Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, This is what Jehovah hath commanded.
Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which Jehovah has commanded.
2 If a man vow a vow to Jehovah, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word; according to all that hath gone out of his mouth shall he do.
When a man vows a vow to Jehovah, 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 If a woman also vow a vow to Jehovah, and bind herself by a bond, in her father's house in her youth,
"Also when a woman vows a vow to Jehovah, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father's house, in her youth,
4 and her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall be silent at her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
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 But if her father prohibited her in the day that he heard, none of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand; and Jehovah shall pardon her, because her father prohibited her.
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 Jehovah will forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
6 And if she have a husband, when she hath her vow upon her or ought that hath passed her lips wherewith she hath bound her soul,
"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 and her husband hear it and be silent at her in the day that he heareth it, then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.
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 But if her husband prohibit her on the day that he heareth it, and annul her vow which is upon her, and what hath passed her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul, then Jehovah shall pardon her.
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 Jehovah will forgive her.
9 But the vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, — everything wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand against her.
"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 And if she have vowed in her husband's house, or have bound her soul by an oath with a bond,
"If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,
11 and her husband have heard it, and been silent at her, and hath not prohibited her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
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 But if her husband have expressly annulled them on the day that he heard them, then nothing of that which is gone out of her lips as to her vows or the bond on her soul, shall stand: her husband hath annulled them; and Jehovah will pardon her.
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 Jehovah will forgive her.
13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband can establish it, or her husband can annul it.
Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
14 And if her husband be altogether silent at her from day to day, then he hath established all her vows or all her bonds which are upon her; he hath confirmed them, for he hath been silent at her in the day that he heard them.
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 But if he in any way annul them after he hath heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity.
But if he shall make them null and void after that he has heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity."
16 These are the statutes, which Jehovah commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, in her youth in her father's house.
These are the statutes, which Jehovah commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father's house.
