Numbers 30:3-5

Common English Bible

Solemn promises by women

³ When a woman makes a solemn promise to the Lord or a binding obligation while she is young and in her father’s household, ⁴ and her father hears her solemn promise or her binding obligation for herself and keeps silent^[a]—then all her solemn promises and any of her binding obligations for herself will stand. ⁵ But if her father expresses disapproval to her on the day that he hears her, none of her solemn promises nor any of her binding obligations for herself will stand. The Lord will forgive her, because her father expressed disapproval to her.
