許願的條例

30 摩西以色列各支派的領袖說:「這是耶和華所吩咐的話: 人若向耶和華許願或起誓,要約束自己,就不可食言,必須照口中所出的一切話去做。

女子年輕,還在父家的時候,若向耶和華許願,要約束自己, 她父親聽見她所許的願和約束自己的話,卻向她默默不言,她所許的願和約束自己的話就都有效。 但是,若她父親在聽見的日子不允許她一切所許的願和約束自己的話,這就不算為有效;耶和華也必赦免她,因為她的父親不允許。

她若已出嫁,有願在身,或口中出了約束自己的冒失話, 她丈夫聽見了,卻在聽見的日子向她默默不言,她所許的願和約束自己的話就都有效。 但是,若她丈夫在聽見的日子不允許,丈夫就廢了她所許的願和口中所出約束自己的冒失話;耶和華也必赦免她。

寡婦或被休的婦人所許的願,她所有約束自己的話,都是有效的。 10 她若在丈夫家裏許了願或起了誓,要約束自己, 11 丈夫聽見了,卻向她默默不言,沒有不允許,她所許的願和約束自己的話就都有效。 12 她丈夫聽見的日子,若把這些全廢了,她口中一切所許的願或約束自己的話就不算為有效。她丈夫已把這些都廢了,耶和華也必赦免她。 13 凡她所許的願和刻苦約束自己所起的誓,丈夫可以堅立,也可以廢去。 14 倘若她丈夫天天向她默默不言,這就算是堅立她一切所許的願或約束自己的話;因為丈夫在聽見的日子向她默默不言,就算是堅立了這些話。 15 但她丈夫聽見了,以後若再廢了這些話,就要擔當婦人的罪孽。」

16 這是關於丈夫待妻子,父親待女兒,女兒年輕還在父家,耶和華所吩咐摩西的條例。

30 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded.

If a man vow a vow unto the Lord, or swear 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.

If a woman also vow a vow unto the Lord, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth;

And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.

But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the Lord shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.

And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;

And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.

But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the Lord shall forgive her.

But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.

10 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath;

11 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 But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the Lord shall forgive her.

13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.

14 But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he confirmeth them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.

15 But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.

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

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.
