Hesabu 30
1 Mose akawaambia viongozi wa makabila ya Israeli: “Hili ndilo Bwana analoagiza:
And Moses spoke unto the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying: This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.
2 Mwanaume awekapo nadhiri kwa Bwana, au anapoapa kujifunga kwa ahadi, kamwe asitangue neno lake, bali ni lazima afanye kila kitu alichosema.
When a man voweth a vow unto the LORD, or sweareth 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 “Wakati mwanamwali anayeishi bado nyumbani kwa baba yake atakapoweka nadhiri kwa Bwana, ama amejifunga mwenyewe kwa ahadi,
Also when a woman voweth a vow unto the LORD, and bindeth herself by a bond, being in her father's house, in her youth,
4 na baba yake akasikia kuhusu nadhiri au ahadi yake lakini asimwambie lolote, ndipo nadhiri zake zote na kila ahadi aliyoiweka na kujifunga kwayo itathibitika.
and her father heareth her vow, or her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father holdeth his peace at her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
5 Lakini kama baba yake akimkataza wakati anapoisikia, hakuna nadhiri wala ahadi yake yoyote aliyojifunga kwayo itakayosimama; Bwana atamweka huru huyo mwanamwali kwa sababu baba yake amemkataza.
But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth, none of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand; and the LORD will forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
6 “Ikiwa ataolewa baada ya kuweka nadhiri au baada ya midomo yake kutamka ahadi fulani bila kufikiri akawa amejifunga hivyo,
And if she be married to a husband, while her vows are upon her, or the clear utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul;
7 na mume wake akasikia habari hiyo asimwambie neno lolote, ndipo nadhiri zake ama ahadi zake ambazo alikuwa amejifunga nazo zitathibitika.
and her husband hear it, whatsoever day it be that he heareth it, and hold his peace at her; then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.
8 Lakini ikiwa mume wake atamkataza atakaposikia kuhusu hilo, atakuwa ametangua nadhiri ambazo zilikuwa zimemfunga mkewe, ama ahadi aliyotamka pasipo kufikiri ambayo amejifunga kwayo, naye Bwana atamweka huru yule mwanamke.
But if her husband disallow her in the day that he heareth it, then he shall make void her vow which is upon her, and the clear utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul; and the LORD will forgive her.
9 “Nadhiri yoyote ama patano ambalo limefanywa na mjane ama mwanamke aliyeachwa vitakuwa vimemfunga.
But the vow of a widow, or of her that is divorced, even every thing wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand against her.
10 “Ikiwa mwanamke anayeishi na mumewe ataweka nadhiri ama kujifunga mwenyewe kwa ahadi chini ya kiapo,
And if a woman vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,
11 na mumewe akasikia kuhusu jambo hili lakini asimwambie lolote wala hakumkataza, ndipo viapo vyake vyote au ahadi zinazomfunga zitakapothibitika.
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 Lakini ikiwa mumewe atabatilisha nadhiri hizo baada ya kuzisikia, basi hakuna nadhiri au ahadi zozote alizoziweka kwa midomo yake zitakazothibitika. Mumewe atakuwa amezibatilisha, na Bwana atamweka huru yule mwanamke.
But if her husband make them null and void in the day that he heareth them, then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips, whether it were her vows, or the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the LORD will forgive her.
13 Mumewe anaweza kuthibitisha au kutangua nadhiri yoyote anayoweka, au ahadi yoyote aliyoweka kwa kuapa ili kujikana mwenyewe.
Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may let it stand, or her husband may make it void.
14 Lakini ikiwa mumewe hasemi lolote kwake kuhusu jambo hilo siku baada ya siku, basi mumewe atakuwa amethibitisha nadhiri zote, na ahadi zote zinazomfunga mkewe. Anavithibitisha kwa kutokusema lolote kwa mkewe anapoyasikia hayo.
But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day, then he causeth all her vows to stand, or all her bonds, which are upon her; he hath let them stand, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.
15 Hata hivyo, ikiwa mumewe atavibatilisha baada ya kusikia hayo, basi atawajibika kwa hatia ya mkewe.”
But if he shall make them null and void after that he hath heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity.
16 Haya ndiyo masharti ambayo Bwana alimpa Mose kuhusu mahusiano kati ya mtu na mkewe, na kati ya baba na binti yake ambaye bado anaishi nyumbani kwa baba yake.
These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father's house.
