Bible, King James Version
Numbers
Num.30
[1] 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.
