¹وكلم موسى رؤوس اسباط بني اسرائيل قائلا هذا ما امر به الرب.

¹Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the children of Israel, saying, “This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded.

²اذا نذر رجل نذرا للرب او اقسم قسما ان يلزم نفسه بلازم فلا ينقض كلامه. حسب كل ما خرج من فمه يفعل.

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.

³واما المرأة فاذا نذرت نذرا للرب والتزمت بلازم في بيت ابيها في صباها

³“Also when a woman vows a vow to Yahweh, and binds herself by a bond, being in her father’s house, in her youth,

⁴وسمع ابوها نذرها واللازم الذي الزمت نفسها به فان سكت ابوها لها ثبتت كل نذورها. وكل لوازمها التي الزمت نفسها بها تثبت.

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.

⁵وان نهاها ابوها يوم سمعه فكل نذورها ولوازمها التي الزمت نفسها بها لا تثبت. والرب يصفح عنها لان اباها قد نهاها.

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.

⁶وان كانت لزوج ونذورها عليها او نطق شفتيها الذي الزمت نفسها به

⁶“If she has a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul,

⁷وسمع زوجها فان سكت في يوم سمعه ثبتت نذورها. ولوازمها التي الزمت نفسها بها تثبت.

⁷and her husband hears 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.

⁸وان نهاها رجلها في يوم سمعه فسخ نذرها الذي عليها ونطق شفتيها الذي الزمت نفسها به والرب يصفح عنها.

⁸But if her husband forbids her in the day that he hears it, then he shall make void her vow which is on her, and the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul: and Yahweh will forgive her.

⁹واما نذر ارملة او مطلّقة فكل ما الزمت نفسها به يثبت عليها.

⁹“But the vow of a widow, or of her who is divorced, everything with which she has bound her soul, shall stand against her.

¹⁰ولكن ان نذرت في بيت زوجها او الزمت نفسها بلازم بقسم

¹⁰“If she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,

¹¹وسمع زوجها فان سكت لها ولم ينهها ثبتت كل نذورها. وكل لازم الزمت نفسها به يثبت.

¹¹and her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and didn’t disallow her; then all her vows shall stand, and every bond with which she bound her soul shall stand.

¹²وان فسخها زوجها في يوم سمعه فكل ما خرج من شفتيها من نذورها او لوازم نفسها لا يثبت. قد فسخها زوجها. والرب يصفح عنها.

¹²But if her husband made them null and void in the day that he heard them, then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband has made them void; and Yahweh will forgive her.

¹³كل نذر وكل قسم التزام لاذلال النفس زوجها يثبته وزوجها يفسخه.

¹³Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.

¹⁴وان سكت لها زوجها من يوم الى يوم فقد اثبت كل نذورها او كل لوازمها التي عليها. اثبتها لانه سكت لها في يوم سمعه.

¹⁴But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day, then he establishes all her vows, or all her bonds, which are on her: he has established them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.

¹⁵فان فسخها بعد سمعه فقد حمل ذنبها.

¹⁵But if he shall make them null and void after that he has heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity.”

¹⁶هذه هي الفرائض التي امر بها الرب موسى بين الزوج وزوجته وبين الاب وابنته في صباها في بيت ابيها

¹⁶These are the statutes, which Yahweh commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father’s house.
