3.  'Or if a woman vows a vow to YHWH, and binds herself by some agreement while in her father's house in her youth,
4.  and her father hears her vow and the agreement by which she has bound herself, and her father has kept silent towards her, then all her vows shall stand, and every agreement with which she has bound herself stands.
5.  'But if her father forbids her on the day that he hears, then none of her vows nor her agreements by which she has bound herself stand. And YHWH pardons her, because her father has forbidden her.
6.  'But if she at all belongs to a husband, while bound by her vows or by a rash utterance from her lips by which she bound herself,
7.  and her husband hears it, and he has kept silent towards her on the day that he hears, then her vows shall stand, and her agreements by which she bound herself do stand.

11.  and her husband heard it, and has kept silent towards her and did not forbid her, then all her vows shall stand, and every agreement by which she bound herself stands.
12.  'But if her husband clearly nullified them on the day he heard them, then whatever came from her lips concerning her vows or concerning the agreement binding her, it does not stand - her husband has nullified them, and YHWH pardons her.
13.  'Every vow and every binding oath to afflict her being, let her husband confirm it, or let her husband nullify it.
14.  'But if her husband is altogether silent at her from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or all the agreements that bind her - he confirms them, because he kept silent towards her on the day that he heard.
15.  'But if he nullifies them after he has heard, then he shall bear her crookedness.'
16.  These are the laws which YHWH commanded Mosheh, between a man and his wife, and between a father and his daughter in her youth in her father's house.
