1. Moses spoke with all the leaders of the Israelite tribes and told them about these commands from the Lord:
2. “If a man makes a special promise to the Lord or makes a promise with an oath, he must not break his promise. He must do everything he said he would do.
3. “A young woman might still be living in her father’s house. And that young woman might make a special promise to give something to the Lord.
4. If her father hears about the promise and agrees, the young woman must do what she promised.
5. But if her father hears about the promise and does not agree, she is free from her promise. She does not have to do what she promised. Her father stopped her, so the Lord will forgive her.
6. “A woman might make a special promise to give something to the Lord and then get married.
