Numbers 30
1 And Moses spoke unto the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying: This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.
Afei, Mose hyiaa Israel mmusua no mu mpanimfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Awurade ahyɛ sɛ,
2 When a man voweth a vow unto the LORD, or sweareth an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word; he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.
sɛ obi hyɛ Awurade bɔ anaa ɔka ntam hyɛ bɔ no, ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔbu so. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ deɛ ɔka sɛ ɔbɛyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
3 Also when a woman voweth a vow unto the LORD, and bindeth herself by a bond, being in her father's house, in her youth,
“Sɛ ababaawa bi hyɛ Awurade bɔ anaa ɔka ntam hyɛ bɔ ɛberɛ a ɔda so te nʼagya fie,
4 and her father heareth her vow, or her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father holdeth his peace at her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
na nʼagya no te sɛ ne ba no ahyɛ bɔ, na wanka hwee a, ne bɔhyɛ no di mu.
5 But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth, none of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand; and the LORD will forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
Nanso sɛ ɛba sɛ nʼagya no si no bɔhyɛ no ho ɛkwan ɛda a ɔbɛte no a, ɔde sɛe bɔhyɛ no. Awurade de bɛkyɛ ababaawa no, ɛfiri sɛ, nʼagya ampene sɛ ɔbɛdi so.
6 And if she be married to a husband, while her vows are upon her, or the clear utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul;
“Sɛ ɔhyɛ bɔ a ɛnyɛ na akyire no ɔkɔware
7 and her husband hear it, whatsoever day it be that he heareth it, and hold his peace at her; then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
na ne kunu no te saa bɔhyɛ no ho asɛm nanso wanka ho hwee ɛda no ara a, ne bɔhyɛ no di dwuma.
8 But if her husband disallow her in the day that he heareth it, then he shall make void her vow which is upon her, and the clear utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul; and the LORD will forgive her.
Na sɛ ne kunu no po bɔhyɛ bɔne no a, po a ɔpoeɛ no di mu enti, Awurade de bɛkyɛ no.
9 But the vow of a widow, or of her that is divorced, even every thing wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand against her.
“Sɛ ɔbaa yɛ okunafoɔ anaa wɔagyaa no aware a, ɛkwan biara so, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdi ne bɔhyɛ nyinaa so.
10 And if a woman vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,
“Sɛ waware na ɔte ne kunu fie a ɛhɔ na ɔhyɛɛ ɛbɔ no,
11 and her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.
na ne kunu no teeɛ na wanka ho hwee a, ne bɔhyɛ no di mu.
12 But if her husband make them null and void in the day that he heareth them, then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips, whether it were her vows, or the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the LORD will forgive her.
Na sɛ ɛda no ara a ɔteeɛ no, sɛ wampene so a, ne bɔhyɛ no nni mu na Awurade de bɛkyɛ no.
13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may let it stand, or her husband may make it void.
Enti, ne kunu na ɔbɛsi so dua anaasɛ ɔbɛkasa atia bɔhyɛ no.
14 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day, then he causeth all her vows to stand, or all her bonds, which are upon her; he hath let them stand, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.
Sɛ ɛda mu no nyinaa wanka ho hwee deɛ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔpene so.
15 But if he shall make them null and void after that he hath heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity.
Sɛ ɔtwɛn ma ɛda koro fa so na sɛ ɔbɛka sɛ bɔhyɛ no nni mu a, ɛho asotwe biara a ɔbaa no penee so no bɛba ɔbarima no so.”
16 These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father's house.
Yei ne mmara a Awurade nam Mose so de maa ɔbarima ne ne yere ne agya ne ne babaa a wɔn nyinaa te efie baako mu no.
