40 And Moses proceeded to talk
to the sons of Israel according
to everything that Jehovah
had commanded Moses. o
Then Moses spoke to the
30 heads p of the tribes of
the sons of Israel, saying: “This
is the word that Jehovah has
commanded: 2 In case a man
makes a vow q to Jehovah or
swears an oath r to bind a vow
of abstinence s upon his soul, he
must not violate his word. t According
to all that has gone out
of his mouth he should do. u
3 “And in case a woman
makes a vow to Jehovah v or she
does bind herself with a vow of
abstinence in the house of her

father actually hears her vow or
her abstinence vow that she has
bound upon her soul and her father
does keep silent toward her,

and every abstinence vow w that
she has bound upon her soul will
stand. 5 But if her father has
forbidden her on the day of his
hearing all her vows or her abstinence
vows that she has bound

6 “However, if she at all happens
to belong to a husband,
and her vow is upon her b or the
thoughtless promise of her lips
that she has bound upon her
soul, 7 and her husband actually
hears it and keeps silent toward

her, d he has also annulled her
