Numbers 30
1 And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes of the sons of Israel saying: This, is the thing which Yahweh hath commanded-
Afei, Mose hyiaa Israel mmusua no mu mpanimfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Awurade ahyɛ sɛ,
2 When, a man, shall vow a vow unto Yahweh, or swear an oath to bind a bond upon his soul, he shall not break his word, —according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth, shall he do.
sɛ obi hyɛ Awurade bɔ anaa ɔka ntam hyɛ bɔ no, ɛnsɛ sɛ ɔbu so. Ɛsɛ sɛ ɔyɛ deɛ ɔka sɛ ɔbɛyɛ no pɛpɛɛpɛ.
3 And, when, a woman, shall vow a vow unto Yahweh, and bind a bond, in the house of her father, in her youth;
“Sɛ ababaawa bi hyɛ Awurade bɔ anaa ɔka ntam hyɛ bɔ ɛberɛ a ɔda so te nʼagya fie,
4 and her father shall hear her vow or her bond which she bindeth upon her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her, then shall all her vows stand, and every bond which she hath bound upon her soul shall stand.
na nʼagya no te sɛ ne ba no ahyɛ bɔ, na wanka hwee a, ne bɔhyɛ no di mu.
5 But, if her father forbade her, in the day when he heard, none of her vows or her bonds which she hath bound upon her soul, shall stand, —and, Yahweh, will pardon her, because her father forbade her.
Nanso sɛ ɛba sɛ nʼagya no si no bɔhyɛ no ho ɛkwan ɛda a ɔbɛte no a, ɔde sɛe bɔhyɛ no. Awurade de bɛkyɛ ababaawa no, ɛfiri sɛ, nʼagya ampene sɛ ɔbɛdi so.
6 But, if she, belonged to a husband, when her vows were taken upon her, —or a rash utterance fell from her lips, wherewith she put a bond upon her soul;
“Sɛ ɔhyɛ bɔ a ɛnyɛ na akyire no ɔkɔware
7 and her husband heard it, and on the day that he heard, he held his peace at her, then shall her vows stand and her bonds which she hath bound upon her soul, shall stand,
na ne kunu no te saa bɔhyɛ no ho asɛm nanso wanka ho hwee ɛda no ara a, ne bɔhyɛ no di dwuma.
8 But if, on the day her husband heard, he forbade her, then shall he have made of none effect her vow that is upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she put a bond upon her soul, —and, Yahweh, will pardon her.
Na sɛ ne kunu no po bɔhyɛ bɔne no a, po a ɔpoeɛ no di mu enti, Awurade de bɛkyɛ no.
9 But as for the vow of a widow, or of a woman divorced, whatsoever she hath bound on her soul, shall stand against her.
“Sɛ ɔbaa yɛ okunafoɔ anaa wɔagyaa no aware a, ɛkwan biara so, ɛsɛ sɛ ɔdi ne bɔhyɛ nyinaa so.
10 But, if in the house of her husband, she vowed, or bound a bond upon her soul. with an oath;
“Sɛ waware na ɔte ne kunu fie a ɛhɔ na ɔhyɛɛ ɛbɔ no,
11 and her husband heard, and held his peace at her, did not forbid her, then shall all her vows stand, and every bond which she hath bound upon her soul, shall stand.
na ne kunu no teeɛ na wanka ho hwee a, ne bɔhyɛ no di mu.
12 But if her husband, did make, them, of none effect, on the day he heard, nothing which came forth out of her lips—of her vows, or of the bond of her soul, shall stand, —her husband, made it of none effect, and Yahweh, will pardon her:
Na sɛ ɛda no ara a ɔteeɛ no, sɛ wampene so a, ne bɔhyɛ no nni mu na Awurade de bɛkyɛ no.
13 As for any vow, or any oath of binding, to humble one’s soul, her husband, may make it stand, or, her husband, may make it of none effect.
Enti, ne kunu na ɔbɛsi so dua anaasɛ ɔbɛkasa atia bɔhyɛ no.
14 But if her husband do hold his peace, at her, from day to day, then shall he cause all her vows to stand, or all her bonds which are upon her, —cause them to stand, because he held his peace at her, on the day when he heard.
Sɛ ɛda mu no nyinaa wanka ho hwee deɛ a, na ɛkyerɛ sɛ, ɔpene so.
15 And, if he, do make them of none effect, after that he hath heard them, then shall he bear her iniquity.
Sɛ ɔtwɛn ma ɛda koro fa so na sɛ ɔbɛka sɛ bɔhyɛ no nni mu a, ɛho asotwe biara a ɔbaa no penee so no bɛba ɔbarima no so.”
16 These are the statutes which Yahweh commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, in her youth in the house of her father.
Yei ne mmara a Awurade nam Mose so de maa ɔbarima ne ne yere ne agya ne ne babaa a wɔn nyinaa te efie baako mu no.
