Dual Panel1Moses <04872> told <01696> the leaders <07218> of the tribes <04294> concerning the Israelites <03478> <01121>, “This <02088> is what <01697> the Lord <03068> has commanded <06680>:
2If <03588> a man <0376> makes <05087> a vow <05088> to the Lord <03069> or <0176> takes <07650> an oath <07621> of binding <0631> obligation <0632> on <05921> himself <05315>, he must not <03808> break <02490> his word <01697>, but must do <06213> whatever <03605> he has promised <06310> <03318>.
3“If <03588> a young <05271> woman <0802> who is still living in her father’s <01> house <01004> makes <05087> a vow <05088> to the Lord <03068> or places <0631> herself under an obligation <0632>,
4and her father <01> hears <08085> of her vow <05088> or the obligation <0632> to which <0834> she has pledged <0631> herself <05315>, and her father <01> remains silent <02790> about her, then all <03605> her vows <05088> will stand <06965>, and every <03605> obligation <0632> to which <0834> she has pledged <0631> herself <05315> will stand <06965>.
5But if <0518> her father <01> overrules <05106> her when <03117> he hears <08085> about it, then none <03605> of her vows <05088> or her obligations <0632> which <0834> she has pledged <0631> for <05921> herself <05315> will stand <06965>. And the Lord <03068> will release <05545> her from it, because <03588> her father <01> overruled <05106> her.
6“And if <0518> she marries <01961> a husband <0376> while under a vow <05088>, or <0176> she uttered <04008> anything impulsively <08193> by which <0834> she has pledged <0631> herself <05315>,
7and her husband <0376> hears <08085> about it, but remains silent <02790> about her when <03117> he hears <08085> about it, then her vows <05088> will stand <06965> and her obligations <0632> which <0834> she has pledged <0631> for <05921> herself <05315> will stand <06965>.
8But if <0518> when <03117> her husband <0376> hears <08085> it he overrules <05106> her, then he will nullify <06565> the vow <05088> she has taken <05921>, and whatever she uttered <04008> impulsively <08193> which <0834> she has pledged <0631> for <05921> herself <05315>. And the Lord <03068> will release <05545> her from it.
9“But every vow <05088> of a widow <0490> or of a divorced <01644> woman which <0834> she has pledged <0631> for <05921> herself <05315> will remain intact <06965>.
10If <0518> she made the vow <05087> in her husband’s <0376> house <01004> or <0176> put <0631> herself <05315> under obligation <0632> with an oath <07621>,
11and her husband <0376> heard <08085> about it, but remained silent <02790> about her, and did not <03808> overrule <05106> her, then all <03605> her vows <05088> will stand <06965>, and every <03605> obligation <0632> which <0834> she pledged <0631> for herself <05315> will stand <06965>.
12But if <0518> her husband clearly <06565> nullifies <06565> them when <03117> he hears <08085> them, then whatever <03605> she says <08193> <04161> by way of vows <05088> or obligations <0632> will not <03808> stand <06965>. Her husband <0376> has made them void <06565>, and the Lord <03068> will release <05545> her from them.
13“Any <03605> vow <05088> or sworn <07621> obligation <0632> that would bring affliction <06031> to her <05315>, her husband <0376> can confirm <06965> or nullify <06565>.
14But if <0518> her husband <0376> remains completely silent <02790> <02790> about her from day <03117> to <0413> day <03117>, he thus confirms <06965> all <03605> her vows <05088> or <0176> all <03605> her obligations <0632> which <0834> she is under <05921>; he confirms <06965> them because <03588> he remained silent <02790> about when <03117> he heard <08085> them.
15But if <0518> he should nullify <06565> <06565> them after <0310> he has heard <08085> them, then he will bear <05375> her iniquity <05771>.”
16These <0428> are the statutes <02706> that <0834> the Lord <03068> commanded <06680> Moses <04872>, relating to <0996> a man <0376> and his wife <0802>, and a father <01> and his young <05271> daughter <01323> who is still living in her father’s <01> house <01004>.
