Numbers 30:9-11

New English Translation

Vows Made by Widows

⁹ “But every vow of a widow or of a divorced woman which she has pledged for herself will remain intact.^{[a] 10} If she made the vow in her husband’s house or put herself under obligation with an oath, ¹¹ and her husband heard about it, but remained silent about her, and did not overrule her, then all her vows will stand, and every obligation which she pledged for herself will stand.
