Nu 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.
Nu 30:2 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.
Nu 30:3 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;
Nu 30:4 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.
Nu 30:5 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.
Nu 30:6 And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered aught out
of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;
Nu 30:7 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.
Nu 30:8 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.
Nu 30:9 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they
have bound their souls, shall stand against her.
Nu 30:10 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond
with an oath;
Nu 30:11 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.
Nu 30:12 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.
Nu 30:13 Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may
establish it, or her husband may make it void.
Nu 30:14 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.
Nu 30:15 But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them;
then he shall bear her iniquity.
Nu 30:16 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.
