Numbers 30:9-13 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

9. But if, as soon as he hears it, he contradicts it, then he will have caused her promises, and the words by which she had bound her soul, to be null and void. The Lord will be favorable to her.

10. Widows and divorced women shall repay whatever they have vowed.

11. If a wife in the house of her husband has bound herself by a vow or an oath,

12. if her husband heard it and remained silent, and he did not contradict the promise, she shall repay what she had promised.

13. But if he promptly contradicts it, she shall not be held liable to the promise. For her husband has contradicted it. And the Lord will be favorable to her.
