Numbers 30
1 And Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, This [is] the thing which the Lord has commanded.
Moisés habló a los jefes de las tribus de los hijos de Israel: Esta es la Palabra que Yavé ordenó:
2 Whatsoever man shall vow a vow to the Lord, or swear an oath, or bind himself with an obligation upon his soul, he shall not break his word; all that shall come out of his mouth he shall do.
Cuando un hombre haga voto a Yavé, o jure para imponerse una promesa, no quebrantará su palabra. Todo lo que salga de su boca lo cumplirá.
3 And if a woman shall vow a vow to the Lord, or bind herself with an obligation in her youth in her father's house; and her father should hear her vows and her obligations, wherewith she has bound her soul, and her father should hold his peace at her, then all her vows shall stand,
También, si una mujer hace un voto a Yavé, y se impone una obligación en su juventud mientras está en casa de su padre,
4 and all the obligations with which she has bound her soul, shall remain to her.
y su padre escucha su voto y la obligación que se impuso, y su padre nada le dice, entonces todos los votos de ella y toda promesa que se impuso serán firmes.
5 But if her father straitly forbid [her] in the day in which he shall hear all her vows and her obligations, which she has contracted upon her soul, they shall not stand; and the Lord shall hold her guiltless, because her father forbade her.
Pero si su padre se lo prohíbe el día cuando se entera, ninguno de sus votos o promesas que se impuso será firme. Yavé la perdonará por cuanto su padre se opuso.
6 But if she should be indeed married, and her vows be upon her according to the utterance of her lips, [the obligations] which she has contracted upon her soul;
Pero si es casada y hace votos, o pronuncia con sus labios cosa con la cual obligue su alma,
7 and her husband should hear, and hold his peace at her in the day in which he should hear, then thus shall all her vows be binding, and her obligations, which she has contracted upon her soul shall stand.
y su esposo oye, y cuando oye se calla, los votos de ella y la obligación que se impuso serán firmes.
8 But if her husband should straitly forbid [her] in the day in which he should hear her, none of her vows or obligations which she has contracted upon her soul shall stand, because her husband has disallowed her, and the Lord shall hold her guiltless.
Pero si el día cuando su esposo la oye, se lo prohíbe, entonces anulará el voto bajo el cual ella está y la declaración imprudente de sus labios con la cual se comprometió, y Yavé la perdonará.
9 And the vow of a widow and of her that is put away, whatever she shall bind upon her soul, shall stand to her.
Pero el voto de una viuda o una repudiada, todo aquello con lo cual se comprometió, será firme para ella.
10 And if her vow [be made] in the house of her husband, or the obligation upon her soul with an oath,
Sin embargo, si hizo voto cuando estaba en casa de su esposo, y ligó su alma con obligación de juramento,
11 and her husband should hear, and hold his peace at her, and not disallow her, then all her vows shall stand, and all the obligations which she contracted against her soul, shall stand against her.
y su esposo oyó, y calló ante ello, y no se lo prohibió, entonces todos sus votos y toda obligación con la cual ligó su alma serán firmes.
12 But if her husband should utterly cancel the vow in the day in which he shall hear it, none of the things which shall proceed out of her lips in her vows, and in the obligations [contracted] upon her soul, shall stand to her; her husband has cancelled them, and the Lord shall hold her guiltless.
Pero si su esposo en verdad los anula el día cuando los oye, todo lo que salió de sus labios en cuanto a sus votos, o en cuanto a obligarse a ella misma, será nulo. Su esposo los anuló, y Yavé la perdonará.
13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict her soul, her husband shall confirm it to her, or her husband shall cancel it.
Todo voto y todo juramento que la obligue a humillarse a ella misma, su esposo lo confirmará o anulará.
14 But if he be wholly silent at her from day to day, then shall he bind upon her all her vows; and he shall confirm to her the obligations [which she has bound] upon herself, because he held his peace at her in the day in which he heard her.
Pero si su esposo calla ante ello de día en día, entonces confirmó todos sus votos y todas las obligaciones que están sobre ella. Las confirma por cuanto calló ante ello el día cuando lo oyó.
15 And if her husband should in any wise cancel [them] after the day in which he heard [them], then he shall bear his iniquity.
Si los anula después de oírlos, entonces él llevará la iniquidad de ella.
16 These [are] the ordinances which the Lord commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, and between a father and daughter in [her] youth in the house of [her] father.
Estos son los Estatutos que Yavé ordenó a Moisés sobre las relaciones entre el esposo y su esposa, y entre el padre y su hija durante la juventud de ésta en casa de su padre.
