Numbers:30
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel ,
saying ,
This is the thing which the LORD has commanded .
*
If a man vow a vow to 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 proceeds out of his mouth .
*
If a woman also vow a vow to the LORD ,
and bind herself by a bond ,
being in her father '
house in her youth ;
*
And her father hear her vow ,
and her bond with which she has bound her soul ,
and her father shall hold his peace at her ;
then all her vows shall stand ,
and every bond with which she has bound her soul shall stand .
*
But if her father disallow her in the day that he hears ;
not any of her vows ,
or of her bonds with which she has 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 ,
with which 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 with which 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 ,
with which 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 ,
with which they have bound their souls ,
shall stand against her .
*
And if she vowed in her husband '
house ,
or bound her soul by a bond with an oath ;
*
And her husband heard it ,
and held his peace at her ,
and disallowed her not :
then all her vows shall stand ,
and every bond with which she bound her soul shall stand .
*
But if her husband has utterly made them void on the day 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 shall forgive her .
*
Every vow ,
and every binding oath to afflict the soul ,
her husband may establish it ,
or her husband may make it void .
*
But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day ;
then he establishes all her vows ,
or all her bonds ,
which are on her :
he confirms them ,
because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them .
*
But if he shall any ways make them void after that he has heard them ;
then he shall bear her iniquity .
*
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 '
house .
