Números 30
1 Moisés habló a los jefes de las tribus de los hijos de Israel, diciendo: “Esto es lo que Yahvé ha ordenado.
And Moses said to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, This is the order of the Lord.
2 Cuando un hombre haga un voto a Yahvé, o haga un juramento para atar su alma con un vínculo, no deberá faltar a su palabra. Hará conforme a todo lo que salga de su boca.
When a man takes an oath to the Lord, or gives an undertaking having the force of an oath, let him not go back from his word, but let him do whatever he has said he will do.
3 “Además, cuando una mujer hace un voto a Yahvé y se compromete con una promesa, estando en la casa de su padre, en su juventud,
If a woman, being young and under the authority of her father, takes an oath to the Lord or gives an undertaking;
4 y su padre oye su voto y su promesa con la que ha vinculado su alma, y su padre no le dice nada, entonces todos sus votos serán válidos, y toda promesa con la que haya vinculado su alma será válida.
If her father, hearing of her oath or the undertaking she has given, says nothing to her, then all her oaths and every undertaking she has given will have force.
5 Pero si su padre se lo prohíbe el día que se entere, ninguno de sus votos ni de sus promesas con los que haya ligado su alma subsistirán. El Señor la perdonará, porque su padre se lo ha prohibido.
But if her father, hearing of it, makes her take back her word, then the oaths or the undertakings she has given will have no force; and she will have forgiveness from the Lord, because her oath was broken by her father.
6 “Si tiene marido, mientras sus votos están sobre ella, o la imprudente expresión de sus labios con la que ha ligado su alma,
And if she is married to a husband at the time when she is under an oath or an undertaking given without thought;
7 y su marido lo oye, y no le dice nada el día que lo oye, entonces sus votos serán firmes, y sus promesas con las que ha ligado su alma serán firmes.
If her husband, hearing of it, says nothing to her at the time, then the oaths she made and the undertakings she gave will have force.
8 Pero si su marido se lo prohíbe el día que lo oiga, entonces anulará su voto que está sobre ella y las palabras imprudentes de sus labios, con las que ha ligado su alma. El Señor la perdonará.
But if her husband, hearing of it, makes her take it back, then the oath she made and the undertaking she gave without thought will have no force or effect, and she will have the Lord's forgiveness.
9 “Pero el voto de la viuda o de la divorciada, todo aquello con lo que haya ligado su alma quedará en su contra.
But an oath made by a widow or one who is no longer married to her husband, and every undertaking she has given, will have force.
10 “Si ella hizo un voto en casa de su marido o vinculó su alma con un juramento,
If she made an oath while she was under the authority of her husband,
11 y su marido lo oyó, y calló ante ella y no la desautorizó, entonces todos sus votos serán válidos, y toda prenda con la que vinculó su alma será válida.
And her husband, hearing of it, said nothing to her and did not put a stop to it, then all her oaths and every undertaking she gave will have force.
12 Pero si su marido los anuló el día que los oyó, entonces todo lo que haya salido de sus labios en cuanto a sus votos, o en cuanto al vínculo de su alma, no subsistirá. Su marido los ha anulado. El Señor la perdonará.
But if her husband, on hearing of it, made them without force or effect, then whatever she has said about her oaths or her undertaking has no force: her husband has made them without effect, and she will have the Lord's forgiveness.
13 Todo voto, y todo juramento vinculante para afligir el alma, su marido puede establecerlo, o su marido puede anularlo.
Every oath, and every undertaking which she gives, to keep herself from pleasure, may be supported or broken by her husband.
14 Pero si su esposo no le dice nada de un día para otro, entonces él establece todos sus votos o todos sus juramentos que están sobre ella. Los ha establecido, porque no le dijo nada el día que los escuchó.
But if the days go on, and her husband says nothing whatever to her, then he is giving the support of his authority to her oaths and undertakings, because at the time of hearing them he said nothing to her.
15 Pero si los anula después de haberlos escuchado, entonces él cargará con su iniquidad.”
But if at some time after hearing of them, he makes them without force, then he is responsible for her wrongdoing.
16 Estosson los estatutos que Yahvé ordenó a Moisés, entre un hombre y su esposa, entre un padre y su hija, estando en su juventud, en la casa de su padre.
These are the laws which the Lord gave Moses in relation to a man and his wife, or a father and a young daughter who is under his authority.
