Numbers 30:7-9

Expanded Bible

⁷ and if her husband hears about it and says nothing, ·she must keep her promise [^Lher vow stands] ·or the pledge she made [^Land the obligation by which she bound herself will stand]. ⁸ But if her husband hears about it and ·does not allow it [disapproves], he cancels her ·pledge [vow] or the ·careless [rash; thoughtless] ·promise [vow] ·she made [by which she bound herself]. The Lord will ·free her from keeping it [forgive her].

⁹ “If a widow or divorced woman makes a ·promise [vow], ·she must do whatever she promised [^Lall by which she bound herself stands].
