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

When a woman vows a vow to Yahweh, or swears an oath to bind her soul with a bond, she shall not break her word; she shall do according to all that proceeds out of her mouth.

Also when a man vows a vow to Yahweh, and binds himself by a bond, being in his mother's house, in his youth,

and his mother hears his vow, and his bond with which he has bound his soul, and his mother holds her peace at him; then all his vows shall stand, and every bond with which he has bound his soul shall stand.

But if his mother disallow him in the day that she hears, none of his vows, or of his bonds with which he has bound his soul, shall stand: and Yahweh will forgive him, because his mother disallowed him.

If he be married to a wife, while his vows are on him, or the rash utterance of his lips, with which he has bound his soul,

and his wife hear it, and hold her peace at him in the day that she hears it; then his vows shall stand, and his bonds with which he has bound his soul shall stand.

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

But the vow of a widower, or of him who is divorced, even everything with which he has bound his soul, shall stand against him.

If he vowed in his wife's house, or bound his soul by a bond with an oath,

and his wife heard it, and held her peace at him, and didn't disallow him; then all his vows shall stand, and every bond with which he bound his soul shall stand.

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

Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, his wife may establish it, or his wife may make it void.

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

But if she shall make them null and void after that she has heard them, then she shall bear his iniquity.

These are the statutes, which Yahweh commanded Moses, between a woman and her husband, between a mother and her son, being in his youth, in his mother's house.
