Numbers 30:2-4
International Standard Version
2 ‘When a man makes a vow to the Lord, or swears an oath—an obligation that is binding to himself—he is not to break his word. Instead, he is to fulfill whatever promise[a] came out of his mouth.’”

3 “When a young woman makes a vow to the Lord or pledges[b] herself[c] to an obligation while she still lives in her father’s house, 4 and her father hears her vow and the obligations that she had pledged[d] herself to fulfill, yet her father keeps silent about it, then all her vows and every obligation she pledged herself to are to stand.
