Ndari 30

1 Musa akĩĩra atongoria a mĩhĩrĩga ya Isiraeli atĩrĩ: “Ũũ nĩguo Jehova aathanĩte:

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

2 Rĩrĩa mũndũ angĩĩhĩta mwĩhĩtwa harĩ Jehova kana ehĩte mwĩhĩtwa wa kwĩhinga mũhingo na ũndũ wa kĩĩranĩro, ndakanericũkwo, na no nginya eke maũndũ marĩa mothe ehĩtĩte.

If a man vow a vow unto YHWH, or swear 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.

3 “Rĩrĩa mũirĩtu ũrĩ gwa ithe mũciĩ angĩĩhĩta mwĩhĩtwa kũrĩ Jehova, kana ehinge na mũhingo na ũndũ wa kĩĩranĩro,

If a woman also vow a vow unto YHWH, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth;

4 nake ithe aigue ũhoro wa mwĩhĩtwa ũcio wake, kana kĩĩranĩro kĩu, no aage kũmwĩra ũndũ hĩndĩ ĩyo, mĩĩhĩtwa yake yothe, na kĩĩranĩro kĩrĩa gĩothe ehingĩte nakĩo we mwene, nĩigatũũra.

And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.

5 No ithe angĩmũkaania aigua ũhoro wa mĩĩhĩtwa ĩyo, hatirĩ o na kĩmwe kĩa mĩĩhĩtwa ĩyo yake, kana ciĩranĩro icio ehingĩte nacio we mwene, igatũũra; nake Jehova nĩakamũrekera nĩ ũndũ ithe nĩamũgirĩtie eke ũndũ ũcio.

But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and YHWH shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.

6 “No angĩhika arĩkĩtie kwĩhĩta, kana thuutha wa kwĩranĩra ũndũ na kanua gake ateciirĩtie ũhoro wa kĩĩranĩro kĩu ehingĩte nakĩo,

And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;

7 nake mũthuuriwe aigue ũhoro ũcio na aage kũmwĩra ũndũ, hĩndĩ ĩyo mĩĩhĩtwa yake kana ciĩranĩro icio ehingĩte nacio we mwene nĩigatũũra.

And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.

8 No mũthuuriwe angĩmũkaania rĩrĩa aigua ũhoro wa mĩĩhĩtwa ĩyo, nĩakeheria mwĩhĩtwa ũcio ũmuohete, kana kĩĩranĩro kĩrĩa ehingĩte nakĩo we mwene ateciirĩtie, nake Jehova nĩakamũrekera.

But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and YHWH shall forgive her.

9 “Mwĩhĩtwa o wothe kana ũndũ ũrĩa mũtumia wa ndigwa kana mũtumia ũrĩa ũtiganĩte na mũthuuriwe angĩkorwo ehĩtĩte nĩatũũre aũrũmĩtie.

But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.

10 “Mũtumia ũrĩ na mũthuuriwe angĩĩhĩta kana ehinge we mwene na kĩĩranĩro kĩa mwĩhĩtwa,

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

11 nake mũthuuriwe aigue ũhoro ũcio, no aage kũmwĩra ũndũ kana aage kũmũgiria, hĩndĩ ĩyo mĩĩhĩtwa yake yothe, kana ciĩranĩro iria ehingĩte nacio we mwene, nĩigatũũra.

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.

12 No mũthuuriwe angĩregana na ũhoro ũcio hĩndĩ ĩyo aũigua-rĩ, hatirĩ o na kĩmwe kĩa mĩĩhĩtwa kana ciĩranĩro iria ciumĩte kanua gake igaatũũra. Mũthuuriwe nĩareganĩte nacio, nake Jehova nĩakamũrekera.

But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day 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 YHWH shall forgive her.

13 Mũthuuriwe no etĩkĩre kana aregane na mwĩhĩtwa o wothe ũrĩa angĩĩhĩta kana kĩĩranĩro kĩrĩa eranĩire na mwĩhĩtwa gĩa kwĩrega we mwene.

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

14 No mũthuuriwe angĩaga kũmwĩra ũndũ igũrũ rĩa ũhoro ũcio mũthenya o mũthenya, nĩetĩkĩrĩte mĩĩhĩtwa yake kana ciĩranĩro iria imuohete. Nĩetĩkĩrĩte maũndũ macio nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga kũmwĩra ũndũ rĩrĩa aigua ũhoro ũcio.

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 confirmeth them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.

15 No angĩrega maũndũ macio thuutha hanini, aarĩkia kũmaigua, nĩwe ũngĩcookererwo nĩ mahĩtia ma mũtumia wake.”

But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.

16 Macio nĩmo mawatho marĩa Jehova aaheire Musa makoniĩ mũndũ na mũtumia wake, na makoniĩ ithe na mwarĩ ũrĩa ũrĩ gwake mũciĩ.

These are the statutes, which YHWH commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between the father and his daughter, being yet in her youth in her father's house.
