Numbers Chapter 30

Numbers Chapter 30
1 Then Moses spake unto the children
of Israel according to all that the Lord
had commanded him.
2 Moses also spake unto the
heads of the tribes concerning the
children of Israel, saying, This is the
thing which the Lord hath commanded,
3 Whosoever voweth a vow unto
the Lord, or sweareth an oath to bind
himself by a bond, he shall not break his
promise, but shall do according to all
that proceedeth out of his mouth.
4 If a woman also vow a vow
unto the Lord, and bind herself by a
bond, being in her father’s house, in the
time of her youth, 5 And her father hear
her vow and bond, wherewith she hath bound
herself, and her father hold his peace
concerning her, then all her vows shall
stand, and every bond, wherewith she hath
bound herself, shall stand.
6 But if her father disallow her the same
day that he heareth all her vows and bonds,
wherewith she hath bound herself, they
shall not be of value, and the Lord will
forgive her, because her father
disallowed her.
7 And if she have an husband when she
voweth or pronounceth ought with her lips,
wherewith she bindeth herself, 8 If her
husband heard it, and holdeth his
peace concerning her, the same day he
heareth it, then her vow shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bindeth herself shall stand in effect.
9 But if her husband disallow her the same day that he heareth it, then shall he make her vow which she hath made, and that that she hath pronounced with her lips, wherewith she bound herself, of none effect: and the Lord will forgive her.
10 But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced (wherewith she hath bound herself) shall stand in effect with her.
11 And if she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound herself straightly with an oath,
12 And her husband hath heard it, and held his peace concerning her, not disallowing her, then all her vows shall stand, and every bond, wherewith she bound herself, shall stand in effect.
13 But if her husband disannulled them,
the same day that he heard them, nothing that proceeded out of her lips concerning
her vows or concerning her bonds, shall
stand in effect: for her husband hath
disannulled them: and the Lord will forgive her.
14 So every vow, and every oath or bond, made to humble the soul,her husband may stablish it, or her husband may break it.
15 But if her husband hold his peace
concerning her from day to day,
then he stablisheth all her vows and all
her bonds which she hath made: he hath confirmed them because he held his peace concerning her the same day that he heard them.
16 But if he break them after that
he hath heard them, then shall he bear
her iniquity.
17 These are the ordinances which the Lord commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, and between the father and his daughter, being young in her father’s house.
