Ọnụọgụgụ 30
1 Mosis kpọkọtara ndị ndu ebo Izrel niile gwa ha sị: “Ihe ndị a ka Onyenwe anyị nyere nʼiwu:
Moses told the tribal leaders of Israel, “This is what the Lord commands:
2 Mgbe nwoke ọbụla kwere Onyenwe anyị nkwa, maọbụ ṅụọ iyi ime ihe ọbụla, ọ gaghị emebi nkwa dị otu a. Kama ọ ga-emezu ihe niile dịka o kwuru ya.
If a man makes a solemn promise to the Lord, or pledges to do something by swearing an oath, he must not break his promise. He must do everything he said he would.
3 “Ọ bụrụ na nwaagbọghọ nọ nʼụlọ nna ya ekwe Onyenwe anyị nkwa maọbụ ṅụọ iyi ime ihe ọbụla,
If a woman who's young and still living in her father's house makes a solemn promise to the Lord or pledges to do something by swearing an oath
4 ọ bụrụ na nna ya anụ mgbe ọ na-ekwe nkwa maọbụ ṅụọ iyi ime ihe ahụ, ma gba ya nkịtị, onye dị otu a aghaghị imezu nkwa niile ndị ahụ o kwere.
and her father finds out about her promise or pledge but doesn't say anything to her, all the promises or pledges she has sworn to do will stand.
5 Ma ọ bụrụ na nna ya ajụ mgbe ọ nụrụ banyere ya na ọ gaghị emezu nkwa dị otu ahụ, mgbe ahụ, nkwa ahụ maọbụ iyi ọ ṅụrụ ga-abụ ihe efu. Onyenwe anyị ga-agbaghakwara ya, nʼihi na nna ya jụrụ na ọ ga-emezu nkwa ya.
But if her father disallows them as soon as he finds out, then none of her promises or pledges remain valid. The Lord will release her from keeping them because her father has disallowed them.
6 “Ọ bụrụ na o mesịa lụọ dị, mgbe ọ ṅụsịrị iyi, maọbụ kwee nkwa nzuzu o kwesiri imezu,
If a woman marries after having made a solemn promise or sworn an oath without thinking
7 di ya nụ banyere ya ma gba ya nkịtị nʼụbọchị ahụ ọ nụrụ ya, nkwa ahụ ga-eguzogide, ọ ga-emezu ya.
and her husband finds out about it but doesn't say anything to her right away, all the promises or pledges she has sworn to do will stand.
8 Ma ọ bụrụ na di ya ajụ ịnabata nkwa ahụ, maọbụ ọṅụṅụ iyi nzuzu ahụ, ọjụjụ di ya jụrụ nkwa ahụ ga-eme ka iyi ahụ maọbụ nkwa ahụ ghara ịdị ire. Onyenwe anyị ga-agbaghakwara ya.
But if her husband disallows them when he finds out about it, then none of her promises or oaths remain valid and the Lord will release her from keeping them.
9 “Ma nkwa ọbụla nke nwanyị di ya nwụrụ maọbụ nwanyị ya na di ya kewara, ihe ọbụla nke o ji ọnụ ya kwuo ka ọ ghaghị imezu.
Every solemn promise made by a widow or a woman who is divorced must be kept.
10 “Ma ọ bụrụ na nwanyị ya na di ya bi e kwee nkwa maọbụ site na kwagide ṅụọ iyi,
If a woman living with her husband makes a solemn promise to the Lord or pledges to do something by swearing an oath,
11 di ya nụ ihe banyere ya, ma gba nkịtị maọbụ ogbochighị ya, mgbe ahụ, ịṅụ iyi na nkwa ndị ahụ niile nke o kwere ga-eguzo.
and her husband finds out about her promise or pledge but doesn't say anything to her and doesn't disallow them, then none of her promises or pledges remain valid.
12 Ma ọ bụrụ na di ya jụrụ ikwenye ka nkwa ahụ dịgide nʼụbọchị mbụ ọ nụrụ ya, nkwa ahụ maọbụ ọṅụṅụ iyi ahụ aghọọla ihe efu. Onyenwe anyị ga-agbaghakwara ya.
But if her husband disallows them as soon as he finds out about it, then none of her promises or oaths remain valid. The Lord will release her from keeping them because her husband has disallowed them.
13 Ya mere, di ya nwere ike ịjụ, maọbụ mesie nkwa ahụ, maọbụ iyi ahụ ọ ṅụrụ ike.
Her husband may also confirm or disallow any solemn promise or pledge the woman may make for self-denial.
14 Ọ bụrụ na di ya ekwughị ihe ọbụla site nʼotu ụbọchị ruo nʼụbọchị ọzọ, mgbe ahụ, o gosiri na o kwenyere ka nwunye ya mezuo nkwa maọbụ iyi ndị ahụ niile.
But if her husband doesn't ever say a word to her about it, then he is assumed to have confirmed all the solemn promises and pledges she has made.
15 Ọ bụrụ na o mesịa jụ na nwunye ya agaghị emezu nkwa ahụ ọ kwere, ikpe ọmụma niile dị nʼihi emezughị nkwa ahụ dị ya nʼisi.”
However, if he disallows them some time later after finding out about them, then he will bear the responsibility for her breaking them.”
16 Ndị a bụ usoro iwu Onyenwe anyị nyere Mosis banyere mmekọrịta nke nwoke na nwunye ya. Ọ metụtakwara nna na nwa ya nwanyị onye bi nʼụlọ ya.
These are the regulations that the Lord gave to Moses regarding the relationship between a man and his wife, and between a father and a daughter who is young and still living at home.
