Numbers 30

Gen Z: Numbers 30

1Moses hit up the tribe leaders, telling them, "Yo, this is what the Lord said we gotta do."

2If a dude makes a promise to the Lord or swears an oath, he better not ghost it; he needs to keep it 100.

3If a girl makes a promise to the Lord while living at her dad's crib,

4and her dad hears her promise but stays chill about it, then all her promises are legit, no cap.

5But if her dad shuts it down when he hears it, none of her promises will count, and the Lord will let her slide since her dad said no.

6If she’s got a husband when she makes a promise or says something that binds her soul,

7and her husband hears it but stays quiet, then her promises are good, and her bonds are solid.

8But if her husband says nah when he hears it, then her promise goes poof, and the Lord will forgive her.

9Every promise from a widow or a divorced woman is still on her, no cap.

10If she made a promise in her husband's pad or bound her soul with an oath,

11and her husband heard it and didn’t say anything, then all her promises stick, and her bonds are on lock.

12But if her husband totally cancels them when he hears them, then whatever she said about her vows won’t count; he made them void, and the Lord will forgive her.

13Every vow and every oath to affect her soul can be backed by her husband or he can cancel it, no cap.

14But if he stays silent about it day after day, then he’s confirming all her promises and bonds since he didn’t say anything when he heard them.

15If he decides to cancel them after hearing them, then he’s gotta take the blame for her mess.

16These are the rules the Lord gave Moses about a man and his wife, and a dad and his daughter while she's still living at home.

KJV: Numbers 30

1And Moses spake unto the heads of the tribes concerning the children of Israel, saying, This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded.

2If a man vow a vow unto the Lord, or swear an oath to bind his soul with a bond; he shall not break his word, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.

3If a woman also vow a vow unto the Lord, and bind herself by a bond, being in her father’s house in her youth;

4And her father hear her vow, and her bond wherewith she hath bound her soul, and her father shall hold his peace at her: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she hath bound her soul shall stand.

5But if her father disallow her in the day that he heareth; not any of her vows, or of her bonds wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand: and the Lord shall forgive her, because her father disallowed her.

6And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, wherewith she bound her soul;

7And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her in the day that he heard it: then her vows shall stand, and her bonds wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.

8But if her husband disallowed her on the day that he heard it; then he shall make her vow which she vowed, and that which she uttered with her lips, wherewith she bound her soul, of none effect: and the Lord shall forgive her.

9But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.

10And if she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath;

11And her husband heard it, and held his peace at her, and disallowed her not: then all her vows shall stand, and every bond wherewith she bound her soul shall stand.

12But if her husband hath utterly made them void on the day he heard them; then whatsoever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand: her husband hath made them void; and the Lord shall forgive her.

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

14But if her husband altogether hold his peace at her from day to day; then he establisheth all her vows, or all her bonds, which are upon her: he confirmeth them, because he held his peace at her in the day that he heard them.

15But if he shall any ways make them void after that he hath heard them; then he shall bear her iniquity.

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