Chapter 30 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of
Israel, saying,
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.
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.
And if she had at all in husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of
her lips, wherewith 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
wherewith 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, wherewith 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, wherewith they have bound
their souls, shall stand against her.
And if she vowed in her husband's 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 wherewith she bound her
soul shall stand.
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.
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
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.
But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath 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's house.
