Chapter 30

1Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the people of Israel, saying, “This is what the LORD has commanded. 2If a man vows a vow to the LORD, or swears an oath to bind himself by a pledge, he shall not break his word. He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth. 3If a woman vows a vow to the LORD and binds herself by a pledge, while in her father's house in her youth, 4and her father hears of her vow and of her pledge by which she has bound herself, and says nothing to her, then all her vows shall stand, and every pledge by which she has bound herself shall stand. 5But if her father expresses disapproval to her on the day that he hears of it, no vow of hers and no pledge by which she has bound herself shall stand. And the LORD will forgive her, because her father expressed disapproval to her. 6If she marries a husband, while under her vows or any thoughtless utterance of her lips by which she has bound herself, 7and her husband hears of it and says nothing to her on the day that he hears, then her vows shall stand, and her pledges by which she has bound herself shall stand. 8But if, on the day that her husband hears of it, he expresses disapproval to her, then he nullifies her vow that she has made and the thoughtless utterance of her lips by which she has bound herself. And the LORD will forgive her. 9But any vow of a widow or of a divorced woman, anything by which she has bound herself, shall stand against her. 10And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound herself by a pledge with an oath, 11and her husband heard of it and said nothing to her and did not express disapproval to her, then all her vows shall stand, and every pledge by which she bound herself shall stand. 12But if her husband makes them null and void on the day that he hears them, then whatever proceeds out of her lips concerning her vows or concerning her pledge shall not stand. Her husband has made them void, and the LORD will forgive her. 13Any vow and any binding oath to afflict herself, her husband may confirm, or her husband may make void. 14But if her husband says nothing to her from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or all her pledges that are upon her. He confirms them, because he said nothing to her on the day that he heard of them. 15But if he makes them null and void after he has heard of them, then he shall bear her iniquity.” 16These are the statutes that the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, and between a father and his daughter while she is in her youth within her father's house.
