Resansman 30
1 Moyiz pale ak chèf branch fanmi pèp Izrayèl yo. Li di yo konsa: -Men lòd Seyè a bay.
And he said to the leaders of the tribes of the sons of Israel: “This is the word, which the Lord has instructed:
2 Lè yon moun fè yon ve l'ap bay Seyè a kichòy ou ankò lè yon moun pwomèt li p'ap fè yon bagay, li pa fèt pou l' pa kenbe pawòl. Se pou l' fè tou sa li te pwomèt l'ap fè a.
If any man makes a vow to the Lord, or binds himself by an oath, he shall not make his word null and void, but all that he has promised, he shall fulfill.
3 Si yon jenn fi ki lakay papa l' toujou fè yon ve l'ap bay Seyè a kichòy ou ankò li pwomèt pou l' pa fè yon bagay,
If a woman, who is in her father’s house, vows anything, or binds herself by an oath, and she is still in a state of childhood, if her father knew of the vow which she has promised or of the oath by which she has obligated her soul, and he kept silent, she shall be liable to the vow:
4 lè papa a vin konn sa, si li pa di l' anyen, jenn fi a gen obligasyon pou l' kenbe ve li te pran an, osinon pwomès li te fè a.
whatever she has promised or swore, she shall complete in deed.
5 Men, si lè papa a vin konn sa, li fè opozisyon, ni ve jenn fi a te pran yo ni pwomès li te fè yo pa kenbe ankò: yo pa vo anyen. Seyè a p'ap gade sou sa, li p'ap fè l' anyen, paske se pa fòt li. Se papa l' ki derefize kite l' kenbe pawòl li.
But if her father, as soon as he had heard it, had contradicted it, both her vows and her oaths shall be nullified, neither shall she be held liable to the promise, because her father had contradicted it.
6 Si yon jenn fi te anba obligasyon pou l' te kenbe yon ve li te pran osinon yon pwomès li te fè, menm si li te pran yo an jwèt, si li rive marye,
If she has a husband, and she has vowed anything, then, once the word has gone out of her mouth, she will have obligated her soul by an oath.
7 epi mari a pa di l' anyen lè li vin konn sa, fi a gen obligasyon pou l' kenbe ve li te pran an osinon pwomès li te fè a.
On the day that her husband will hear of it, and yet not contradict it, she shall be liable to the vow, and she shall repay whatever she has promised.
8 Men, si jou mari a vin konn sa li fè opozisyon, lamenm li wete fanm lan anba obligasyon li te genyen pou l' te kenbe ve li te pran an osinon pwomès li te fè a. Seyè a p'ap gade sou sa, li p'ap fè l' anyen.
But if, as soon as he hears it, he contradicts it, then he will have caused her promises, and the words by which she had bound her soul, to be null and void. The Lord will be favorable to her.
9 Men lè yon fanm ki vèv osinon ki divòse fè yon ve pou l' bay Seyè a kichòy, osinon li pwomèt pou l' pa fè yon bagay, se pou l' kenbe pawòl li.
Widows and divorced women shall repay whatever they have vowed.
10 Si yon madanm marye, antan li lakay mari l', pran yon ve pou fè kichòy osinon pwomèt pou l' pa fè yon bagay,
If a wife in the house of her husband has bound herself by a vow or an oath,
11 epi si lè mari l' vin konn sa, li pa di l' anyen, li pa fè okenn opozisyon, fanm lan gen obligasyon pou l' kenbe ve li te pran an osinon pwomès li te fè a, nenpòt kisa yo te ye.
if her husband heard it and remained silent, and he did not contradict the promise, she shall repay what she had promised.
12 Men, si mari a vin konn sa, epi menm jou li vin konn sa a, li di li pa dakò, fanm lan p'ap nan obligasyon pou l' kenbe pawòl ni pou ve li te pran an, ni pou pwomès li te fè a. Se mari a ki te derefize kite l' kenbe pawòl li. Konsa, Seyè a p'ap gade sou sa, li p'ap fè l' anyen.
But if he promptly contradicts it, she shall not be held liable to the promise. For her husband has contradicted it. And the Lord will be favorable to her.
13 Yon mari gen dwa dakò, konsa tou li gen dwa refize dakò kite madanm li kenbe pawòl li, ni pou ve madanm li te pran an, ni pou pwomès li te fè a.
If she has vowed or bound herself by oath, in order to afflict her soul by fasting, or by abstaining from other things, it shall be for the arbitration of her husband, as to whether or not she may do it.
14 Men, si apre mari a vin konn sa li kite yon jou pase, li pa di l' anyen ankò, sa vle di li dakò ak ve madanm li te pran an osinon ak pwomès madanm lan te fè a. Depi mari a pa di l' anyen lè li vin konn sa, sa vle di se dakò li dakò.
But if the husband, upon hearing it, remains silent, and he delays judgment until another day, whatever she had vowed or promised, she shall repay, because when he first heard it, he remained silent.
15 Men si, apre mari a vin konn angajman madanm lan te pran an, mari a kite kèk jou pase anvan li di li pa dakò, se li menm k'ap sibi chatiman ki pou ta tonbe sou madanm lan pou pawòl li pa kenbe a.
And if he contradicted it only sometime after he had known about it, he shall bear his iniquity.”
16 Men tout regleman Seyè a te bay Moyiz pou yon fanm ki fè ve osinon ki pran yon angajman. Si li marye, men tout jan mari a ka boule avè l' nan ka sa a. Si li poko marye, li lakay papa l' toujou, men tout jan papa a ka pran sa.
These are the laws which the Lord has appointed to Moses, between a husband and a wife, between a father and a daughter, who is still in the state of childhood or who remains in her father’s house.
