Numbers 30
1 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel saying: This, is the thing which Yahweh hath commanded-
et locutus est ad principes tribuum filiorum Israel: Iste est sermo quem præcepit Dominus:
2 When, a man, shall vow a vow unto Yahweh, or swear an oath to bind a bond upon his soul, he shall not break his word, —according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth, shall he do.
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, shall vow a vow unto Yahweh, and bind 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 shall hear her vow or her bond which she bindeth upon her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her, then shall all her vows stand, and every bond which she hath bound upon her soul shall stand.
quidquid pollicita est et iuravit, opere complebit.
5 But, if her father forbade her, in the day when he heard, none of her vows or her bonds which she hath bound upon her soul, shall stand, —and, Yahweh, will pardon her, because her father forbade her.
sin autem statim ut audierit, contradixerit pater: et vota et iuramenta eius irrita erunt, nec obnoxia tenebitur sponsioni, eo quod contradixerit pater.
6 But, if she, belonged to a husband, when her vows were taken upon her, —or a rash utterance fell from her lips, wherewith she put a bond upon her soul;
Si maritum habuerit, et voverit aliquid, et semel de ore eius verbum egrediens animam eius obligaverit iuramento:
7 and her husband heard it, and on the day that he heard, he held his peace at her, then shall her vows stand and her bonds which she hath bound upon her soul, shall stand,
quo die audierit vir, et non contradixerit, voti rea erit, reddetque quodcumque promiserat.
8 But if, on the day her husband heard, he forbade her, then shall he have made of none effect her vow that is upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she put a bond upon her soul, —and, Yahweh, will pardon her.
sin autem audiens statim contradixerit, et irritas fecerit pollicitationes eius, verbaque quibus obstrinxerat animam suam: propitius erit ei Dominus.
9 But as for the vow of a widow, or of a woman divorced, whatsoever she hath bound on her soul, shall stand against her.
Vidua et repudiata quidquid voverint, reddent.
10 But, if in the house of her husband, she vowed, or bound a bond upon her soul. with an oath;
Uxor in domo viri cum se voto constrinxerit et iuramento,
11 and her husband heard, and held his peace at her, did not forbid her, then shall all her vows stand, and every bond which she hath bound upon her soul, shall stand.
si audierit vir, et tacuerit, nec contradixerit sponsioni, reddet quodcumque promiserat.
12 But if her husband, did make, them, of none effect, on the day he heard, nothing which came forth out of her lips—of her vows, or of the bond of her soul, shall stand, —her husband, made it of none effect, and Yahweh, will pardon her:
sin autem extemplo contradixerit, non tenebitur promissionis rea: quia maritus contradixit, et Dominus ei propitius erit.
13 As for any vow, or any oath of binding, to humble one’s soul, her husband, may make it stand, or, her husband, may make it of none effect.
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 But if her husband do hold his peace, at her, from day to day, then shall he cause all her vows to stand, or all her bonds which are upon her, —cause them to stand, because he held his peace at her, on the day when he heard.
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, do make them of none effect, after that he hath heard them, then shall he bear her iniquity.
sin autem contradixerit postquam rescivit, portabit ipse iniquitatem eius.
16 These are the statutes which Yahweh 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.
