Numbers 30:6-13 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

6. “If she has a husband while bound by her vows or a rash promise of her lips,

7. and her husband hears of it and is silent on the day he hears it, her vows will stand, and her pledge that she bound upon herself will stand.

8. But if on the day her husband hears of it, he forbids her, then he will nullify her vow that she is under, and the rash promise of her lips that she bound on herself; and Yahweh will forgive her.

9. “But the vow of a widow or a woman who is divorced, all that she binds on herself will stand on her.

10. But if she made a vow in her husband’s house, or bound herself on a pledge with a sworn oath,

11. and her husband heard it but was silent to her, and he did not forbid her, all her vows will stand and every pledge that she bound on herself will stand.

12. But if her husband nullified them on the day he hears them, all her vows going out of her lips concerning her vows or the pledge on herself will not stand; her husband has nullified them, and Yahweh will forgive her.

13. “Any vow and any sworn oath of a pledge to inflict on herself, her husband can confirm it or her husband can nullify it.
