Bamidbar 30:1-7 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. And Moshe spoke unto the Rashei HaMattot (Heads of the Tribes) concerning the Bnei Yisroel saying, This is the thing which Hashem hath commanded:

2. (3) If an ish vow a neder unto Hashem, or swear a shevu'ah (oath) to bind his nefesh with an issar (negative vow, prohibition), he shall not break his dever, he shall do according to all that proceedeth out of his mouth.

3. (4) If an isha also vow a neder unto Hashem, and bind herself by an issar, being in her bais avi in her youth;

4. (5) And her av hear her neder, and her issar wherewith she hath bound her nefesh, and her av says nothing to her, then all her nedarim shall stand, and every issar wherewith she hath bound her nefesh shall stand.

5. (6) But if her av disallow her in the yom that he heareth, not any of her nedarim, or of her issurim (negative vows, prohibitions) wherewith she hath bound her nefesh, shall stand; and Hashem shall forgive her, because her av forbade her.

6. (7) And if she had at all an ish, when she made nedarim or utterance of her lips, wherewith she bound her nefesh;

7. (8) And her ish heard it, and said nothing to her in the yom that he heard it, then her nedarim shall stand, and her issurim wherewith she bound her nefesh shall stand.
