Numbers 30

1And MosesH4872 spake unto the heads of the tribes of the children of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, This is the thing which Jehovah hath commandedH6680. 2WhenH834 a man voweth a vow unto Jehovah, or sweareth an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his wordH1697; he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth. 3Also when a woman voweth a vowH5088 unto Jehovah, and bindeth herself by a bond, being in her father’s house, in her youth, 4and her fatherH1 heareth her vowH5088, and her bond wherewith she hath boundH631 her soul, and her fatherH1 holdeth his peace at her; then all her vowsH5088 shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath boundH631 her soul shall stand. 5But if her fatherH1 disallow her in the day that he heareth, none of her vowsH5088, or of her bonds wherewith she hath boundH631 her soulH5315, shall standH6965: and Jehovah will forgive her, because her fatherH1 disallowed her.

6And if she bemarriedto a husband, while her vowsH5088 are upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath boundH631 her soulH5315, 7and her husbandH376 hear it, and hold his peace at her in the day that he heareth it; then her vowsH5088 shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she hath boundH631 her soulH5315 shall stand. 8But if her husbandH376 disallow her in the dayH3117 that he heareth it, then he shall makeH8085 void her vowH5088 which is upon her, and the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath boundH631 her soulH5315: and Jehovah will forgive her.

9But the vowH5088 of a widow, or of her that is divorced, even everything wherewith she hath boundH631 her soulH5315, shall stand against her. 10And if she vowedH5088 in her husband’s house, or boundH631 her soulH5315 by a bond with an oath, 11and her husbandH376 heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not; then all her vowsH5087 shall stand, and every bond wherewith she boundH631 her soulH5315 shall stand. 12But if her husbandH376 made them null and void in the day that he heardH8085 them, then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vowsH5088, or concerning the bond of her soulH5315, shall not standH6965: her husbandH376 hath made them void; and Jehovah will forgive her.

13Every vowH5088, and every binding oath to afflict the soulH5315, her husbandH376 may establishH6965 it, or her husbandH376 may makeH8085 it void. 14But if her husbandH376 altogether hold his peace at her from day to day, then he establisheth all her vowsH5088, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he hath establishedH6965 them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them. 15But if he shall makeH8085 them null and void after that he hath heardH8085 them, then he shall bear her iniquity. 16These are the statutes, which Jehovah commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father’s house.
