Numbers 30

1 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.

Moses/I spoke with the leaders of the Israeli tribes. He/I told them these commands that Yahweh had given to him/me:

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.

“If a man solemnly promises Yahweh that he will do something, he must do what he promised.

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;

“If a young woman who is still living with her parents solemnly promises to Yahweh to do something,

4 and her father heareth her vow, and 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.

and if her father hears about what she promised, and if he does not object, she must do what she promised [DOU].

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 shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.

But if her father hears about what she promised and does not allow her to do that, then she does not need to do what she promised. Yahweh will forgive her for not doing what she promised.

6 And if she be [married] to a husband, while her vows are upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul;

“If a woman promises Yahweh that she will do something, but then she gets married,

7 and her husband hear it, and hold his peace at her in the day that he heareth it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.

if her husband hears about what she promised to do, and he does not object, she must do what she promised [DOU].

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 rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul: and the LORD shall forgive her.

But if her husband hears about it and does not allow her to do that, she does not need to do what she promised, and Yahweh will forgive her for not doing what she promised.

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.

“If a widow or a woman who has been divorced makes a promise, she must do what she promised.

10 And if she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,

“If a woman who is married promises [DOU] to do something,

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.

and if her husband hears about it but does not object, she must do what she promised.

12 But if her husband made them null and void in the day that he heard them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the LORD shall forgive her.

But if he hears about it and does not allow her to do that, she does not need to do what she promised, and Yahweh will forgive her for not doing it.

13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.

A woman’s husband may require her to do what she has promised, or he may not allow her to do what she has promised.

14 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he hath established them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.

If he does not object for several days [after he hears about it], she must do what she promised.

15 But if he shall make them null and void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.

But if he waits a long time after she has promised to do something and then he tells her that he will not permit her to do it, if she does not do what she promised, [she will not be punished]; her husband is the one whom [Yahweh] will punish.”

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.

Those are the rules that Yahweh gave to Moses/me for husbands and wives, and for young women who are still living with their parents.
