30 Така също Моисей говори на началниците от племената на израилтяните, казвайки: Ето що заповяда Господ:

Когато някой мъж направи обрек Господу, или се закълне с клетва та обвързва душата си със задължение, нека не наруши думата си, но нека извърши, според всичко що е излязло из устата му.

Тоже, ако някоя жена направи обрек Господу, и обвърже <себе си> със задължение, в младостта си, в бащиния си дом,

и баща й чуе обрека й и задължението, с което е обвързала душата си, и баща й не й каже нищо, тогава всичките й обреци си остават в сила, и всяко нейно задължение, с което е обвързала душата си, си остава в сила.

Но ако й забрани баща й, в деня когато чуе, то никой от обреците й или от задълженията, с които е обвързала душата си, няма да остане в сила; и Господ ще й прости понеже й е забранил баща й.

Но ако се омъжи, като има на себе си обрека си, или нещо необмислено изговорено с устните й, с което е обвързала душата си,

и мъжът й, като чуе, не й каже нищо, в деня когато чуе, тогава обреците й си остават в сила, и задълженията, с които е обвързала душата си, си остават в сила.

Но ако й забрани мъжът й, в деня когато чуе, тогава той ще унищожи обрека, който е взела върху себе си, и онова, което е необмислено изговорила с устните си, с което е обвързала душата си; и Господ ще й прости.

Обрек направен от вдовица или напусната жена, всичко, с което би обвързала душата си, си остава върху нея.

10 Но ако <една жена> е направила обрек в къщата на мъжа си, или е обвързала душата си с клетвено задължение,

11 и мъжът й е чул и не й е казал нищо, нито й е забранил, тогава всичките й обреци си остават в сила, и всичките задължения, с които е обвързала душата си, си остават в сила.

12 Но ако, в деня, когато е чул, мъжът й ги е съвсем унищожил, тогава онова, което е излязло из устните й относно обреците й и относно обвързването на душата й не ще остане в сила; мъжът й ги е унищожил, и Господ ще й прости.

13 Мъжът й може да утвърди, и мъжът й може да унищожи всеки обрек и всяко клетвено задължение за смиряването на душата й;

14 но ако мъжът й ден след ден продължава да мълчи, тогава той потвърждава всичките й обреци и всичките задължения, които са върху нея; той ги е потвърдил защото не й е казал нищо в деня, когато ги е чул.

15 Но ако ги унищожи някак по-после, след като ги е чул, тогава той ще носи нейния грях.

16 Тия са повеленията, които Господ заповяда на Моисея, <да се пазят> между мъж и жена му, и между баща и дъщеря му в младостта й, догдето е в бащиния си дом, <относно обреците>.

The Law Concerning Vows

30 Then Moses spoke to (A)the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, “This is the thing which the Lord has commanded: (B)If a man makes a vow to the Lord, or (C)swears an oath to bind himself by some agreement, he shall not break his word; he shall (D)do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.

“Or if a woman makes a vow to the Lord, and binds herself by some agreement while in her father’s house in her youth, and her father hears her vow and the agreement by which she has bound herself, and her father [a]holds his peace, then all her vows shall stand, and every agreement with which she has bound herself shall stand. But if her father overrules her on the day that he hears, then none of her vows nor her agreements by which she has bound herself shall stand; and the Lord will release her, because her father overruled her.

“If indeed she takes a husband, while bound by her vows or by a rash utterance from her lips by which she bound herself, and her husband hears it, and makes no response to her on the day that he hears, then her vows shall stand, and her agreements by which she bound herself shall stand. But if her husband (E)overrules her on the day that he hears it, he shall make void her vow which she took and what she uttered with her lips, by which she bound herself, and the Lord will release her.

“Also any vow of a widow or a divorced woman, by which she has bound herself, shall stand against her.

10 “If she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound herself by an agreement with an oath, 11 and her husband heard it, and made no response to her and did not overrule her, then all her vows shall stand, and every agreement by which she bound herself shall stand. 12 But if her husband truly made them void on the day he heard them, then whatever proceeded from her lips concerning her vows or concerning the agreement binding her, it shall not stand; her husband has made them [b]void, and the Lord will release her. 13 Every vow and every binding oath to afflict her soul, her husband may confirm it, or her husband may make it void. 14 Now if her husband makes no response whatever to her from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or all the agreements that bind her; he confirms them, because he made no response to her on the day that he heard them. 15 But if he does make them void after he has heard them, then he shall bear her guilt.”

16 These are the statutes which the Lord commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, and between a father and his daughter in her youth in her father’s house.

Men and Vows

30 Moses spoke to (A)the heads of the tribes of the people of Israel, saying, “This is what the Lord has commanded. (B)If a man vows a vow to the Lord, or (C)swears an oath to bind himself by a pledge, he shall not break his word. (D)He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.

Women and Vows

“If a woman vows a vow to the Lord and binds herself by a pledge, while within her father's house in her youth, and her father hears of her vow and of her pledge by which she has bound herself and says nothing to her, then all her vows shall stand, and every pledge by which she has bound herself shall stand. But if her father opposes her on the day that he hears of it, no vow of hers, no pledge by which she has bound herself shall stand. And the Lord will forgive her, because her father opposed her.

“If she marries a husband, while under her (E)vows or any thoughtless utterance of her lips by which she has bound herself, and her husband hears of it and says nothing to her on the day that he hears, then her vows shall stand, and her pledges by which she has bound herself shall stand. But if, on the day that her husband comes to hear of it, he opposes her, then he makes void her (F)vow that was on her, and the thoughtless utterance of her lips by which she bound herself. (G)And the Lord will forgive her. (But any vow of a widow or of a divorced woman, anything by which she has bound herself, shall stand against her.) 10 And if she vowed in her husband's house or bound herself by a pledge with an oath, 11 and her husband heard of it and said nothing to her and did not oppose her, then all her vows shall stand, and every pledge by which she bound herself shall stand. 12 But if her husband makes them null and void on the day that he hears them, then whatever proceeds out of her lips concerning her vows or concerning her pledge of herself shall not stand. Her husband has made them void, and (H)the Lord will forgive her. 13 Any vow and any binding oath to afflict herself,[a] her husband may establish,[b] or her husband may make void. 14 But if her husband says nothing to her from day to day, then he establishes all her vows or all her pledges that are upon her. He has established them, because he said nothing to her on the day that he heard of them. 15 But if he makes them null and void after he has heard of them, then (I)he shall bear her iniquity.”

16 These are the statutes that the Lord commanded Moses about a man and his wife and about a father and his daughter while she is in her youth within her father's house.
