Números 30
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
La ley de los votos
30 Entonces Moisés habló a los jefes(A) de las tribus de los israelitas: «Esto es lo que el Señor ha ordenado. 2 Si un hombre hace un voto al Señor(B), o hace un juramento para imponerse una obligación, no faltará a su palabra; hará conforme a todo lo que salga de su boca. 3 Asimismo, si una mujer hace un voto al Señor, y se impone una obligación en su juventud estando en casa de su padre, 4 y su padre escucha su voto y la obligación que se ha impuesto, y su padre no le dice nada, entonces todos los votos de ella serán firmes, y toda obligación que se ha impuesto será firme. 5 Pero si su padre se lo prohíbe el día en que se entera de ello, ninguno de sus votos ni las obligaciones que se ha impuesto serán firmes. El Señor la perdonará porque su padre se lo prohibió.
6 »Si ella se casa mientras está bajo sus votos o bajo la declaración imprudente de sus labios con que se ha atado, 7 y su marido se entera de ello y no le dice nada el día en que lo oye, entonces su voto permanecerá firme, y las obligaciones que se ha impuesto, serán firmes. 8 Pero si el día en que su marido se entera de ello, se lo prohíbe, entonces él anulará el voto bajo el cual ella está, y la declaración imprudente de sus labios con que se ha comprometido, y el Señor la perdonará.
9 »Pero el voto de una viuda o de una divorciada, todo aquello por lo cual se ha comprometido, será firme contra ella. 10 Sin embargo, si hizo el voto en casa de su marido, o se impuso una obligación por juramento, 11 y su marido lo oyó, pero no le dijo nada y no se lo prohibió, entonces sus votos serán firmes, y toda obligación que se impuso será firme. 12 Pero si el marido en verdad los anula el día en que se entera de ello, entonces todo lo que salga de los labios de ella en relación con sus votos, o en relación con la obligación de sí misma, no será firme; su marido los ha anulado, y el Señor la perdonará.
13 »Todo voto y todo juramento de obligación para humillarse a sí misma, su marido puede confirmarlo o su marido puede anularlo. 14 Pero si en verdad el marido nunca le dice nada a ella, entonces confirma todos sus votos o todas sus obligaciones que están sobre ella; las ha confirmado porque no le dijo nada el día en que se enteró de ello. 15 Pero si en verdad él los anula después de haberlos oído, entonces él llevará la culpa de ella».
16 Estos son los estatutos que el Señor mandó a Moisés, entre un marido y su mujer, y entre un padre y su hija que durante su juventud está aún en casa de su padre.
Numbers 30
King James Version
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.
2 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.
3 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;
4 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.
5 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.
6 And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;
7 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.
8 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.
9 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.
Numbers 30
English Standard Version
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. 2 (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
3 “If a woman vows a vow to the Lord and binds herself by a pledge, while within her father's house in her youth, 4 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. 5 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.
6 “If she marries a husband, while under her (E)vows or any thoughtless utterance of her lips by which she has bound herself, 7 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. 8 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. 9 (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.
