Numbers 30
1 And he said to the princes of the tribes of the children of Israel: This is the word that the Lord hath commanded:
摩西曉諭以色列各支派的首領說：「耶和華所吩咐的乃是這樣：
2 If any man make a vow to the Lord, or bind himself by an oath: he shall not make his word void but shall fulfill all that he promised.
人若向耶和華許願或起誓，要約束自己，就不可食言，必要按口中所出的一切話行。
3 If a woman vow any thing, and bind herself by an oath, being in her father’s house, and but yet a girl in age: if her father knew the vow that she hath promised, and the oath wherewith she hath bound her soul, and held his peace, she shall be bound by the vow:
女子年幼、還在父家的時候，若向耶和華許願，要約束自己，
4 Whatsoever she promised and swore, she shall fulfill in deed.
她父親也聽見她所許的願並約束自己的話，卻向她默默不言，她所許的願並約束自己的話就都要為定。
5 But if her father, immediately as soon as he heard it, gainsaid it, both her vows and her oaths shall be void, neither shall she be bound to what she promised, because her father hath gainsaid it.
但她父親聽見的日子若不應承她所許的願和約束自己的話，就都不得為定；耶和華也必赦免她，因為她父親不應承。
6 If she have a husband, and shall vow any thing, and the word once going out of her mouth shall bind her soul by an oath:
她若出了嫁，有願在身，或是口中出了約束自己的冒失話，
7 The day that her husband shall hear it, and not gainsay it, she shall be bound to the vow, and shall give whatsoever she promised.
她丈夫聽見的日子，卻向她默默不言，她所許的願並約束自己的話就都要為定。
8 But if as soon as he heareth he gainsay it, and make her promises and the words wherewith she had bound her soul of no effect: the Lord will forgive her.
但她丈夫聽見的日子，若不應承，就算廢了她所許的願和她出口約束自己的冒失話；耶和華也必赦免她。
9 The widow, and she that is divorced, shall fulfill whatsoever they vow.
寡婦或是被休的婦人所許的願，就是她約束自己的話，都要為定。
10 If the wife in the house of her husband, hath bound herself by vow and by oath,
她若在丈夫家裏許了願或起了誓，約束自己，
11 If her husband hear, and hold his peace, and doth not disallow the promise, she shall accomplish whatsoever she had promised.
丈夫聽見，卻向她默默不言，也沒有不應承，她所許的願並約束自己的話就都要為定。
12 But if forthwith he gainsay it, she shall not be bound by the promise: because her husband gainsaid it, and the Lord will be merciful to her.
丈夫聽見的日子，若把這兩樣全廢了，婦人口中所許的願或是約束自己的話就都不得為定，因她丈夫已經把這兩樣廢了；耶和華也必赦免她。
13 If she vow and bind herself by oath, to afflict her soul by fasting, or abstinence from other things, it shall depend on the will of her husband, whether she shall do it, or not do it.
凡她所許的願和刻苦約束自己所起的誓，她丈夫可以堅定，也可以廢去。
14 But if the husband hearing it hold his peace, and defer the declaring his mind till another day: whatsoever she had vowed and promised, she shall fulfill: because immediately as he heard it, he held his peace.
倘若她丈夫天天向她默默不言，就算是堅定她所許的願和約束自己的話；因丈夫聽見的日子向她默默不言，就使這兩樣堅定。
15 But if he gainsay it after that he knew it, he shall bear her iniquity.
但她丈夫聽見以後，若使這兩樣全廢了，就要擔當婦人的罪孽。」
16 These are the laws which the Lord appointed to Moses between the husband and the wife, between the father and the daughter that is as yet but a girl in age, or that abideth in her father’s house.
這是丈夫待妻子，父親待女兒，女兒年幼、還在父家，耶和華所吩咐摩西的律例。
