Numbers 30:6-16

6“If a woman marries while her vows or the rash commitment she herself made are binding,

7and her husband hears about it and says nothing to her when he finds out, her vows are binding, and the obligations she put herself under are binding.

8But if her husband prohibits her when he hears about it, he will cancel her vow that is binding or the rash commitment she herself made, and the Lord will release her.

9“Every vow a widow or divorced woman puts herself under is binding on her.

10“If a woman in her husband’s house has made a vow or put herself under an obligation with an oath,

11and her husband hears about it, says nothing to her, and does not prohibit her, all her vows are binding, and every obligation she put herself under is binding.

12But if her husband cancels them on the day he hears about it, nothing that came from her lips, whether her vows or her obligation, is binding. Her husband has canceled them, and the Lord will release her.

13Her husband may confirm or cancel any vow or any sworn obligation to deny herself.

14If her husband says nothing at all to her from day to day, he confirms all her vows and obligations, which are binding. He has confirmed them because he said nothing to her when he heard about them.

15But if he cancels them after he hears about them, he will be responsible for her commitment.”

16These are the statutes that the Lord commanded Moses concerning the relationship between a man and his wife, or between a father and his daughter in his house during her youth.
