New International Version

1 Then Moses summoned the leaders of the tribes of Israel and told them, “This is what the LORD has commanded:

1Moses said to the heads of the tribes of Israel: "This is what the LORD commands:

2A man who makes a vow to the LORD or makes a pledge under oath must never break it. He must do exactly what he said he would do.

2When a man makes a vow to the LORD or takes an oath to obligate himself by a pledge, he must not break his word but must do everything he said.

3“If a young woman makes a vow to the LORD or a pledge under oath while she is still living at her father’s home,

3"When a young woman still living in her father's household makes a vow to the LORD or obligates herself by a pledge

4and her father hears of the vow or pledge and does not object to it, then all her vows and pledges will stand.

4and her father hears about her vow or pledge but says nothing to her, then all her vows and every pledge by which she obligated herself will stand.

5But if her father refuses to let her fulfill the vow or pledge on the day he hears of it, then all her vows and pledges will become invalid. The LORD will forgive her because her father would not let her fulfill them.

5But if her father forbids her when he hears about it, none of her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand; the LORD will release her because her father has forbidden her.

6“Now suppose a young woman makes a vow or binds herself with an impulsive pledge and later marries.

6"If she marries after she makes a vow or after her lips utter a rash promise by which she obligates herself

7If her husband learns of her vow or pledge and does not object on the day he hears of it, her vows and pledges will stand.

7and her husband hears about it but says nothing to her, then her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand.

8But if her husband refuses to accept her vow or impulsive pledge on the day he hears of it, he nullifies her commitments, and the LORD will forgive her.

8But if her husband forbids her when he hears about it, he nullifies the vow that obligates her or the rash promise by which she obligates herself, and the LORD will release her.

9If, however, a woman is a widow or is divorced, she must fulfill all her vows and pledges.

9"Any vow or obligation taken by a widow or divorced woman will be binding on her.

10“But suppose a woman is married and living in her husband’s home when she makes a vow or binds herself with a pledge.

10"If a woman living with her husband makes a vow or obligates herself by a pledge under oath

11If her husband hears of it and does not object to it, her vow or pledge will stand.

11and her husband hears about it but says nothing to her and does not forbid her, then all her vows or the pledges by which she obligated herself will stand.

12But if her husband refuses to accept it on the day he hears of it, her vow or pledge will be nullified, and the LORD will forgive her.

12But if her husband nullifies them when he hears about them, then none of the vows or pledges that came from her lips will stand. Her husband has nullified them, and the LORD will release her.

13So her husband may either confirm or nullify any vows or pledges she makes to deny herself.

13Her husband may confirm or nullify any vow she makes or any sworn pledge to deny herself.

14But if he does not object on the day he hears of it, then he is agreeing to all her vows and pledges.

14But if her husband says nothing to her about it from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or the pledges binding on her. He confirms them by saying nothing to her when he hears about them.

15If he waits more than a day and then tries to nullify a vow or pledge, he will be punished for her guilt.”

15If, however, he nullifies them some time after he hears about them, then he must bear the consequences of her wrongdoing."

16These are the regulations the LORD gave Moses concerning relationships between a man and his wife, and between a father and a young daughter who still lives at home.

16These are the regulations the LORD gave Moses concerning relationships between a man and his wife, and between a father and his young daughter still living at home.
