1Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded.
2When a man vows a vow to Yahweh, or swears an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word; he shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.
3Also when a woman vows a vow to Yahweh, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father`s house, in her youth,
4and her father hears her vow, and her bond with which she has bound her soul, and her father holds his peace at her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she has bound her soul shall stand.
5But if her father disallow her in the day that he hears, none of her vows, or of her bonds with which she has bound her soul, shall stand: and Yahweh will forgive her, because her father disallowed her.
6If she be [married] to a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul,
7and her husband hear it, and hold his peace at her in the day that he hears it; then her vows shall stand, and her bonds with which she has bound her soul shall stand.
