30Moses spoke to the heads of the tribes of the People of Israel: "This is what GOD commands:H4872H1696H7218H4294H1121H3478H559H1697H3068H66802When a man makes a vow to GOD or binds himself by an oath to do something, he must not break his word; he must do exactly what he has said.H376H5087H5088H3068H7650H7621H631H5315H632H2490H1697H6213H3318H63103"When a woman makes a vow to GOD and binds herself by a pledge as a young girl still living in her father's house,H802H5087H5088H3068H631H632H1H1004H52714and her father hears of her vow or pledge but says nothing to her, then she has to make good on all her vows and pledges.H1H8085H5088H632H631H5315H1H2790H5088H6965H632H631H5315H69655But if her father holds her back when he hears of what she has done, none of her vows and pledges are valid. GOD will release her since her father held her back.H1H5106H3117H8085H5088H632H631H5315H6965H3068H5545H1H51066"If she marries after she makes a vow or has made some rash promise or pledge,H376H5088H4008H8193H631H53157and her husband hears of it but says nothing to her, then she has to make good on whatever she vowed or pledged.H376H8085H2790H3117H8085H5088H6965H632H631H5315H69658But if her husband intervenes when he hears of it, he cancels the vow or rash promise that binds her. And GOD will release her.H376H5106H3117H8085H5088H4008H8193H631H5315H6565H3068H55459"Any vow or pledge taken by a widow or divorced woman is binding on her.H5088H490H1644H631H5315H696510"When a woman who is living with her husband makes a vow or takes a pledge under oathH5087H376H1004H631H5315H632H762111and her husband hears about it but says nothing and doesn't say she can't do it, then all her vows and pledges are valid.H376H8085H2790H5106H5088H6965H632H631H5315H696512But if her husband cancels them when he hears about them, then none of the vows and pledges that she made are binding. Her husband has canceled them and GOD will release her.H376H6565H6565H3117H8085H4161H8193H5088H632H5315H6965H376H6565H3068H554513Any vow and pledge that she makes that may be to her detriment can be either affirmed or annulled by her husband.H5088H632H7621H6031H5315H376H6965H376H656514But if her husband is silent and doesn't speak up day after day, he confirms her vows and pledges—she has to make good on them. By saying nothing to her when he hears of them, he binds her to them.H376H2790H2790H3117H3117H6965H5088H632H6965H2790H3117H808515If, however, he cancels them sometime after he hears of them, he takes her guilt on himself."H6565H6565H310H8085H5375H577116These are the rules that GOD gave Moses regarding conduct between a man and his wife and between a father and his young daughter who is still living at home.H2706H3068H6680H4872H376H802H1H1323H5271H1H1004
Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
