< Numbers 30 >
1 Moses told the tribal leaders of Israel, “This is what the Lord commands:
Mose gblɔ na Israelviwo ƒe towo ƒe tatɔwo be, “Se si Yehowa de lae nye esi.
2 If a man makes a solemn promise to the Lord, or pledges to do something by swearing an oath, he must not break his promise. He must do everything he said he would.
Ne ame aɖe ɖe adzɔgbe na Yehowa alo ka atam hetsri nane na eɖokui la, mele be wòada le eƒe nya dzi o, ke boŋ ele be wòawɔ ɖe nya sia nya si wògblɔ la dzi.
3 If a woman who's young and still living in her father's house makes a solemn promise to the Lord or pledges to do something by swearing an oath
“Ne nyɔnu aɖe, si nye ɖetugbi le fofoa ƒe aƒe me ɖe adzɔgbe na Yehowa be yeawɔ nane alo yemawɔ nane o,
4 and her father finds out about her promise or pledge but doesn't say anything to her, all the promises or pledges she has sworn to do will stand.
eye fofoa nya nu tso ɖetugbi la ƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la kple tohehe siwo ku ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la ŋuti ŋu, gake megblɔ nya aɖeke o la, ekema ele be ɖetugbi la nawɔ ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi kokoko.
5 But if her father disallows them as soon as he finds out, then none of her promises or pledges remain valid. The Lord will release her from keeping them because her father has disallowed them.
Ke ne fofoa melɔ̃ ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o, alo wòbu be tohehe si dzi wòlɔ̃ ɖo sesẽ akpa la, ekema ɖetugbi la ƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la megablae o. Ne fofoa melɔ̃ ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o la, ekema ele nɛ be wòaɖe gbeƒã nenema le gbe si gbe wònya nu le adzɔgbeɖeɖe la ŋu; ekema Yehowa atsɔe ake ɖetugbi la, elabena fofoa melɔ̃ ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o.
6 If a woman marries after having made a solemn promise or sworn an oath without thinking
“Ne nyɔnu aɖe ɖe adzɔgbe alo do ŋugbe dzodzro aɖe hafi va ɖe srɔ̃ la,
7 and her husband finds out about it but doesn't say anything to her right away, all the promises or pledges she has sworn to do will stand.
ne srɔ̃ŋutsu la se nya la, eye megblɔ nya aɖeke tso eŋu le gbe si gbe wòse nu tso eŋuti dzi o la, ekema ele be nyɔnu la nawɔ ɖe eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi kokoko.
8 But if her husband disallows them when he finds out about it, then none of her promises or oaths remain valid and the Lord will release her from keeping them.
Ke ne srɔ̃ŋutsu la gbe be yemelɔ̃ ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o la, ekema adzɔgbeɖeɖe la megabla nyɔnu la o, eye Yehowa atsɔe akee.
9 Every solemn promise made by a widow or a woman who is divorced must be kept.
“Ke ne nyɔnu la zu ahosi alo eya kple srɔ̃a dome klã la, ekema ele nɛ be wòawɔ ɖe eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi kokoko.
10 If a woman living with her husband makes a solemn promise to the Lord or pledges to do something by swearing an oath,
“Ne srɔ̃nyɔnu aɖe le srɔ̃a ƒe aƒe me, eye wòɖe adzɔgbe,
11 and her husband finds out about her promise or pledge but doesn't say anything to her and doesn't disallow them, then none of her promises or pledges remain valid.
ne srɔ̃ŋutsu la se nu tso srɔ̃a ƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la ŋu, eye megblɔ nya aɖeke o la, ekema ele be nyɔnu la nawɔ ɖe eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi kokoko.
12 But if her husband disallows them as soon as he finds out about it, then none of her promises or oaths remain valid. The Lord will release her from keeping them because her husband has disallowed them.
Ke ne ŋutsu la gblɔ le ŋkeke gbãtɔ si wòse nu tso adzɔgbeɖeɖe la ŋu be yemelɔ̃ ɖe edzi o la, ekema adzɔgbeɖeɖe la megabla nyɔnu la o, eye Yehowa atsɔe akee.
13 Her husband may also confirm or disallow any solemn promise or pledge the woman may make for self-denial.
Ale srɔ̃ŋutsu ate ŋu alɔ̃ adzɔgbeɖeɖe la nabla srɔ̃a loo alo agbe, eye adzɔgbeɖeɖe la mabla srɔ̃a o.
14 But if her husband doesn't ever say a word to her about it, then he is assumed to have confirmed all the solemn promises and pledges she has made.
Ke ne ŋutsu la megblɔ nya aɖeke o, eye ŋkeke ɖeka va yi la, ekema elɔ̃ ɖe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi.
15 However, if he disallows them some time later after finding out about them, then he will bear the responsibility for her breaking them.”
Ne srɔ̃ŋutsu la lala ŋkeke ɖeka va yi hafi wòva gbe be yemelɔ̃ ɖe ye srɔ̃ ƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o la, ekema tohehe ka ke dzi nyɔnu la lɔ̃ ɖo be wòava ye dzi ne yemewɔ ɖe yeƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o la ava ŋutsu la boŋ dzi, elabena eyae meɖe mɔ na nyɔnu la be wòawɔ ɖe eƒe adzɔgbeɖeɖe la dzi o.”
16 These are the regulations that the Lord gave to Moses regarding the relationship between a man and his wife, and between a father and a daughter who is young and still living at home.
Esiawoe nye se siwo Yehowa de na Mose tso ale si srɔ̃ŋutsu kple srɔ̃nyɔnu dome nanɔ kple ale si fofo kple vinyɔnu dome nanɔ la ŋu.
