< 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.
Moisés dijo a los jefes de las tribus de Israel: “Esto es lo que nos ordena el Señor:
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.
Si un hombre hace una promesa solemne al Señor, o promete hacer algo jurando, no debe romper su promesa. Debe hacer todo lo que dijo que haría.
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;
“Si una mujer joven que aún vive en la casa de su padre hace una promesa solemne al Señor o se compromete a hacer algo mediante un juramento
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.
y su padre se entera de su promesa o juramento pero no le dice nada, todas las promesas o juramentos que ha hecho se mantendrán.
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.
Pero si su padre las rechaza tan pronto como se entere, entonces ninguna de sus promesas o juramentos serán válidos. El Señor la liberará de cumplirlas porque su padre las ha desautorizado.
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;
“Si una mujer se casa después de haber hecho una promesa solemne o un juramento sin pensarlo
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.
y su marido se entera de ello pero no le dice nada inmediatamente, todas las promesas o juramentos que haya hecho se mantendrán.
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.
Pero si su marido las rechaza cuando se entera de ello, entonces ninguna de sus promesas o juramentos permanecen válidos y el Señor la liberará de cumplirlos.
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.
“Toda promesa solemne hecha por una viuda o una mujer divorciada debe cumplirse.
10 And if she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,
“Si una mujer que vive con su marido hace una promesa solemne al Señor o se compromete a hacer algo mediante un juramento,
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.
y su marido se entera de su promesa o juramento pero no le dice nada y no lo desautoriza, entonces ninguna de sus promesas o juramentos permanecen válidos.
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.
Pero si su marido las rechaza tan pronto como se entera de ello, entonces ninguna de sus promesas o juramentos siguen siendo válidos. El Señor la liberará de mantenerlas porque su marido las ha rechazado.
13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.
“Su marido también puede confirmar o rechazar cualquier promesa o juramento solemne que la mujer haga para negarse a sí misma.
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.
Pero si su marido no le dice nunca una palabra al respecto, se supone que ha confirmado todas las promesas y juramentos solemnes que ella ha hecho.
15 But if he shall make them null and void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.
Sin embargo, si él las rechaza algún tiempo después de enterarse de ellas, entonces él tendrá la responsabilidad de que ella las rompa”.
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.
Estos son los preceptos que el Señor dio a Moisés sobre la relación entre un hombre y su esposa, y entre un padre y una hija que es joven y todavía vive en casa.
