1 \29:40\And Moses told the children of Israel according to all that the LORD commanded Moses.2 \30:1\And Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the LORD hath commanded.3 \30:2\If a man shall vow a vow to the LORD, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word; he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.4 \30:3\If a woman also shall vow a vow to the LORD, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father's house in her youth;5 \30:4\And her father shall hear her vow, and her bond with which she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she hath bound her soul shall stand.6 \30:5\But if her father shall disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows or of her bonds with which she hath bound her soul shall stand: and the LORD shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.7 \30:6\And if she had a husband when she vowed, or uttered aught from her lips, with which she bound her soul;8 \30:7\And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds with which she bound her soul shall stand.9 \30:8\But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make of no effect her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, with which she bound her soul: and the LORD shall forgive her.10 \30:9\But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, with which they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.11 \30:10\And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath;12 \30:11\And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she bound her soul shall stand.13 \30:12\But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard them; then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the LORD shall forgive her.14 \30:13\Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.15 \30:14\But if her husband altogether holds his peace at her from day to day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he confirmeth them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.16 \30:15\But if he shall any way make them void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.17 \30:16\These are the statutes which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between the father and his daughter, being yet in her youth in her father's house.

1 Moisés disse aos chefes das tribos de Israel: "É isto que o Senhor ordena:2 Quando um homem fizer um voto ao Senhor ou um juramento que o obrigar a algum compromisso, não poderá quebrar a sua palavra, mas terá que cumprir tudo o que disse.3 "Quando uma moça que ainda vive na casa de seu pai fizer um voto ao Senhor ou obrigar-se por um compromisso4 e seu pai souber do voto ou compromisso, mas nada lhe disser, então todos os votos e cada um dos compromissos a que se obrigou serão válidos.5 Mas, se o pai a proibir quando souber do voto, nenhum dos votos ou dos compromissos a que se obrigou será válido; o Senhor a livrará porque o seu pai a proibiu.6 "Se ela se casar depois de fazer um voto ou depois de seus lábios proferirem uma promessa precipitada pela qual se obriga a si mesma7 e o seu marido o souber, mas nada lhe disser no dia em que ficar sabendo, então os seus votos ou compromissos a que ela se obrigou serão válidos.8 Mas, se o seu marido a proibir quando o souber, anulará o voto que a obriga ou a promessa precipitada pela qual ela se obrigou, e o Senhor a livrará.9 "Qualquer voto ou compromisso assumido por uma viúva ou por uma mulher divorciada será válido.10 "Se uma mulher que vive com o seu marido fizer um voto ou obrigar-se por juramento a um compromisso11 e o seu marido o souber, mas nada lhe disser e não a proibir, então todos os votos ou compromissos pelos quais ela se obrigou serão válidos.12 Mas, se o seu marido os anular quando deles souber, então nenhum dos votos ou compromissos que saíram de seus lábios será válido. Seu marido os anulou, e o Senhor a livrará.13 O marido poderá confirmar ou anular qualquer voto ou qualquer compromisso que a obrigue a humilhar-se a si mesma.14 Mas, se o marido nada lhe disser a respeito disso até o dia seguinte, com isso confirma todos os seus votos ou compromissos que a obrigam. Ele os confirma por nada lhe dizer quando os ouviu.15 Se, contudo, ele os anular algum tempo depois de ouvi-los, ele sofrerá as conseqüências de sua iniqüidade".16 São essas as ordenanças que o Senhor deu a Moisés a respeito do relacionamento entre um homem e sua mulher, e entre um pai e sua filha moça que ainda vive na casa do pai.
