Numbers 30
1 And Moses speaks to the heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel, saying, “This [is] the thing which YHWH has commanded:
et locutus est ad principes tribuum filiorum Israel: Iste est sermo quem præcepit Dominus:
2 When a man vows a vow to YHWH, or has sworn an oath to bind a bond on his soul, he does not defile his word; he does according to all that is going out from his mouth.
Si quis virorum votum Domino voverit, aut se constrinxerit iuramento: non faciet irritum verbum suum, sed omne quod promisit, implebit.
3 And when a woman vows a vow to YHWH, and has bound a bond in the house of her father in her youth,
Mulier si quippiam voverit, et se constrinxerit iuramento, quæ est in domo patris sui, et in ætate adhuc puellari: si cognoverit pater votum quod pollicita est, et iuramentum quo obligavit animam suam, et tacuerit, voti rea erit:
4 and her father has heard her vow and her bond which she has bound on her soul, and her father has kept silent to her, then all her vows have been established, and every bond which she has bound on her soul is established.
quidquid pollicita est et iuravit, opere complebit.
5 And if her father has disallowed her in the day of his hearing, none of her vows and her bonds which she has bound on her soul are established, and YHWH is propitious to her, for her father has disallowed her.
sin autem statim ut audierit, contradixerit pater: et vota et iuramenta eius irrita erunt, nec obnoxia tenebitur sponsioni, eo quod contradixerit pater.
6 And if she is having a husband, and her vows [are] on her, or a wrongful utterance [on] her lips which she has bound on her soul,
Si maritum habuerit, et voverit aliquid, et semel de ore eius verbum egrediens animam eius obligaverit iuramento:
7 and her husband has heard, and in the day of his hearing he has kept silent to her, then her vows have been established, and her bonds which she has bound on her soul are established.
quo die audierit vir, et non contradixerit, voti rea erit, reddetque quodcumque promiserat.
8 And if in the day of her husband’s hearing he disallows her, then he has broken her vow which [is] on her, and the wrongful utterance of her lips which she has bound on her soul, and YHWH is propitious to her.
sin autem audiens statim contradixerit, et irritas fecerit pollicitationes eius, verbaque quibus obstrinxerat animam suam: propitius erit ei Dominus.
9 As for the vow of a widow or cast-out woman, all that she has bound on her soul is established on her.
Vidua et repudiata quidquid voverint, reddent.
10 And if she has vowed [in] the house of her husband, or has bound a bond on her soul with an oath,
Uxor in domo viri cum se voto constrinxerit et iuramento,
11 and her husband has heard, and has kept silent to her—he has not disallowed her—then all her vows have been established, and every bond which she has bound on her soul is established.
si audierit vir, et tacuerit, nec contradixerit sponsioni, reddet quodcumque promiserat.
12 And if her husband certainly breaks them in the day of his hearing, none of the outgoing of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, is established—her husband has broken them—and YHWH is propitious to her.
sin autem extemplo contradixerit, non tenebitur promissionis rea: quia maritus contradixit, et Dominus ei propitius erit.
13 Every vow and every oath—a bond to humble a soul—her husband establishes it, or her husband breaks it;
Si voverit, et iuramento se constrinxerit, ut per ieiunium, vel ceterarum rerum abstinentiam affligat animam suam, in arbitrio viri erit ut faciat, sive non faciat.
14 and if her husband certainly keeps silent to her from day to day, then he has established all her vows or all her bonds which [are] on her; he has established them, for he has kept silent to her in the day of his hearing;
quod si audiens vir tacuerit, et in alteram diem distulerit sententiam: quidquid voverat atque promiserat, reddet: quia statim ut audivit, tacuit.
15 and if he indeed breaks them after his hearing, then he has borne her iniquity.”
sin autem contradixerit postquam rescivit, portabit ipse iniquitatem eius.
16 These [are] the statutes which YHWH has commanded Moses between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, in her youth, [in] the house of her father.
Istæ sunt leges, quas constituit Dominus Moysi inter virum et uxorem, inter patrem et filiam, quæ in puellari adhuc ætate est, vel quæ manet in parentis domo.
