اَلْعَدَد 30

١ 1 وَكَلَّمَ مُوسَى رُؤُوسَ أَسْبَاطِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: «هَذَا مَا أَمَرَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ:

Moses spoke to the leaders of the tribes of the people of Israel. He said, “This is what Yahweh has commanded.

٢ 2 إِذَا نَذَرَ رَجُلٌ نَذْرًا لِلرَّبِّ، أَوْ أَقْسَمَ قَسَمًا أَنْ يُلْزِمَ نَفْسَهُ بِلَازِمٍ، فَلَا يَنْقُضْ كَلَامَهُ. حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْ فَمِهِ يَفْعَلُ.

When anyone makes a vow to Yahweh, or swears an oath to bind himself with a promise, he must not break his word. He must keep his promise to do everything that comes out of his mouth.

٣ 3 وَأَمَّا ٱلْمَرْأَةُ فَإِذَا نَذَرَتْ نَذْرًا لِلرَّبِّ وَٱلْتَزَمَتْ بِلَازِمٍ فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا فِي صِبَاهَا،

When a young woman living in her father's house makes a vow to Yahweh and binds herself with a promise,

٤ 4 وَسَمِعَ أَبُوهَا نَذْرَهَا وَٱللَّازِمَ ٱلَّذِي أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهِ، فَإِنْ سَكَتَ أَبُوهَا لَهَا، ثَبَتَتْ كُلُّ نُذُورِهَا. وَكُلُّ لَوَازِمِهَا ٱلَّتِي أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهَا تَثْبُتُ.

if her father hears the vow and the promise by which she has bound herself, and if he says nothing to reverse her, then all her vows will remain in force. Every promise by which she has bound herself will remain in force.

٥ 5 وَإِنْ نَهَاهَا أَبُوهَا يَوْمَ سَمْعِهِ، فَكُلُّ نُذُورِهَا وَلَوَازِمِهَا ٱلَّتِي أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهَا لَا تَثْبُتُ، وَٱلرَّبُّ يَصْفَحُ عَنْهَا لِأَنَّ أَبَاهَا قَدْ نَهَاهَا.

But if her father hears about her vow and her promise, and if he says nothing to her, then all the vows and promises that she took on herself will remain in force.

٦ 6 وَإِنْ كَانَتْ لِزَوْجٍ وَنُذُورُهَا عَلَيْهَا أَوْ نُطْقُ شَفَتَيْهَا ٱلَّذِي أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهِ،

However, if her father hears all the vows she made and her solemn promises with which she has bound herself, and if he overrules her on that same day, then they will not remain in force. Yahweh will forgive her because her father had overruled her.

٧ 7 وَسَمِعَ زَوْجُهَا، فَإِنْ سَكَتَ فِي يَوْمِ سَمْعِهِ ثَبَتَتْ نُذُورُهَا. وَلَوَازِمُهَا ٱلَّتِي أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهَا تَثْبُتُ.

If she marries a man while she is under those vows, or if she makes rash promises with which she obligates herself, those obligations will remain in force.

٨ 8 وَإِنْ نَهَاهَا رَجُلُهَا فِي يَوْمِ سَمْعِهِ، فَسَخَ نَذْرَهَا ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهَا وَنُطْقَ شَفَتَيْهَا ٱلَّذِي أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهِ، وَٱلرَّبُّ يَصْفَحُ عَنْهَا.

But if her husband stops her on the day that he hears about it, then he cancels the vow that she has made, the rash talk of her lips with which she has bound herself. Yahweh will release her.

٩ 9 وَأَمَّا نَذْرُ أَرْمَلَةٍ أَوْ مُطَلَّقَةٍ، فَكُلُّ مَا أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهِ يَثْبُتُ عَلَيْهَا.

But as for a widow or a divorced woman, everything by which she has bound herself will remain in force against her.

١٠ 10 وَلَكِنْ إِنْ نَذَرَتْ فِي بَيْتِ زَوْجِهَا أَوْ أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِلَازِمٍ بِقَسَمٍ،

If a woman made a vow in her husband's house or obligates herself by taking an oath,

١١ 11 وَسَمِعَ زَوْجُهَا، فَإِنْ سَكَتَ لَهَا وَلَمْ يَنْهَهَا ثَبَتَتْ كُلُّ نُذُورِهَا. وَكُلُّ لَازِمٍ أَلْزَمَتْ نَفْسَهَا بِهِ يَثْبُتُ.

and her husband hears of it, but he says nothing to her and he does oppose her, then all her vows must stand and the obligations she made must remain in force.

١٢ 12 وَإِنْ فَسَخَهَا زَوْجُهَا فِي يَوْمِ سَمْعِهِ، فَكُلُّ مَا خَرَجَ مِنْ شَفَتَيْهَا مِنْ نُذُورِهَا أَوْ لَوَازِمِ نَفْسِهَا لَا يَثْبُتُ. قَدْ فَسَخَهَا زَوْجُهَا. وَٱلرَّبُّ يَصْفَحُ عَنْهَا.

But if her husband cancels them on the day that he heard about them, then whatever came out of her lips about her vows or promises will not remain in force. Her husband has canceled them. Yahweh will release her.

١٣ 13 كُلُّ نَذْرٍ وَكُلُّ قَسَمِ ٱلْتِزَامٍ لِإِذْلَالِ ٱلنَّفْسِ، زَوْجُهَا يُثْبِتُهُ وَزَوْجُهَا يَفْسَخُهُ.

Every vow or oath a woman takes that binds her to deny herself something may be confirmed or canceled by her husband.

١٤ 14 وَإِنْ سَكَتَ لَهَا زَوْجُهَا مِنْ يَوْمٍ إِلَى يَوْمٍ فَقَدْ أَثْبَتَ كُلَّ نُذُورِهَا أَوْ كُلَّ لَوَازِمِهَا ٱلَّتِي عَلَيْهَا. أَثْبَتَهَا لِأَنَّهُ سَكَتَ لَهَا فِي يَوْمِ سَمْعِهِ.

But if he says nothing at all to her day after day, then he confirms all her vows and binding promises that she has made. He has confirmed them because he has said nothing to her at the time that he heard about them.

١٥ 15 فَإِنْ فَسَخَهَا بَعْدَ سَمْعِهِ فَقَدْ حَمَلَ ذَنْبَهَا».

If her husband tries to cancel his wife's vow a long time after he has heard about it, then he will be responsible for her sin.”

١٦ 16 هَذِهِ هِيَ ٱلْفَرَائِضُ ٱلَّتِي أَمَرَ بِهَا ٱلرَّبُّ مُوسَى، بَيْنَ ٱلزَّوْجِ وَزَوْجَتِهِ، وَبَيْنَ ٱلْأَبِ وَٱبْنَتِهِ فِي صِبَاهَا فِي بَيْتِ أَبِيهَا.

These are the statutes that Yahweh commanded Moses to announce—statutes for what is between a man and his wife and between a father and his daughter when she is in her youth in her father's family.
