1 Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded. NHEB — Numbers 30:1
2 When a man vows a vow to the LORD, or swears an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word; he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth. NHEB — Numbers 30:2
3 "Also when a woman vows a vow to the LORD, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father's house, in her youth, NHEB — Numbers 30:3
4 and her father hears her vow, and her bond with which she has bound her soul, and her father holds his peace at her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she has bound her soul shall stand. NHEB — Numbers 30:4
5 But if her father disallow her in the day that he hears, none of her vows, or of her bonds with which she has bound her soul, shall stand: and the LORD will forgive her, because her father disallowed her. NHEB — Numbers 30:5
6 "If she has a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul, NHEB — Numbers 30:6
7 and her husband hears it, and holds his peace at her in the day that he hears it; then her vows shall stand, and her bonds with which she has bound her soul shall stand. NHEB — Numbers 30:7
8 But if her husband forbids her in the day that he hears it, then he shall make void her vow which is on her, and the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul: and the LORD will forgive her. NHEB — Numbers 30:8
9 "But the vow of a widow, or of her who is divorced, everything with which she has bound her soul, shall stand against her. NHEB — Numbers 30:9
10 "If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath, NHEB — Numbers 30:10
11 and her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and did not disallow her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she bound her soul shall stand. NHEB — Numbers 30:11
12 But if her husband made them null and void in the day that he heard them, then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband has made them void; and the LORD will forgive her. NHEB — Numbers 30:12
13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void. NHEB — Numbers 30:13
14 But if her husband says nothing to her from day to day, then he establishes all her vows, or all her bonds, which are on her: he has established them, because he says nothing to her on the day that he heard them. NHEB — Numbers 30:14
15 But if he shall make them null and void after that he has heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity." NHEB — Numbers 30:15
16 These are the statutes, which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father's house. NHEB — Numbers 30:16
