“ Again you have heard that it was said to the ancient ones,‘ You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,’

“你们又听见有吩咐古人的话，说：‘不可背誓，所起的誓总要向主谨守。’

“你们又听过有对古人说：‘不可背誓，所起的誓总要向主谨守。’

“你们又听过有对古人说：‘不可背誓，所起的誓总要向主谨守。’

“你们也听过吩咐古人的话，‘不可违背誓言，总要向主遵守所起的誓。’

“你们又听过有这样吩咐古人的话：‘不可背约，向主许的愿都要偿还。’

“另外，你们听过那吩咐古人的话：‘不可起假誓。你所起的誓，总要向主偿还。’

「你們又聽見有吩咐古人的話，說：『不可背誓，所起的誓總要向主謹守。』

「你們又聽過有對古人說：『不可背誓，所起的誓總要向主謹守。』

「你們又聽過有對古人說：『不可背誓，所起的誓總要向主謹守。』

「你們也聽過吩咐古人的話，『不可違背誓言，總要向主遵守所起的誓。』

“你們又聽過有這樣吩咐古人的話：‘不可背約，向主許的願都要償還。’

『再者，你們曾聽見有話對古人說：「不可違背所起的誓；你所起的誓總要向主清還。」

「另外，你們聽過那吩咐古人的話：『不可起假誓。你所起的誓，總要向主償還。』

爾又聞有語古人云、勿背誓、誓必償之於主、

又聞古者有言、毋背誓願、指主而誓願者、必守之、

爾聞有諭古人之言曰、勿妄誓、所誓者、當為主而守之、

爾又聞誡古人之言曰：「毋背誓、誓於主者當踐履之。」

“ Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago,‘ Do not break your oath, but fulfill to the Lord the vows you have made.’

“ Again, you have heard what was said to your people long ago. They were told,‘ Do not break the promises you make to the Lord. Keep your promises to the Lord that you have made.’

“ Again you have heard that it was said to those of old,‘ You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’

“ You have also heard that our ancestors were told,‘ You must not break your vows; you must carry out the vows you make to the Lord.’

“ Again, you have heard that it was said to our ancestors, You must not break your oath, but you must keep your oaths to the Lord.

“ Again, you have heard that the ancients were told,‘ You shall not make false vows, but shall fulfill your vows to the Lord.’

“ Again you have heard that it was said to those of old,‘ You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform your oaths to the Lord.’

Again, ye have heard that it was said to them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

“ Again, you have heard that it was said to our ancestors, You must not break your oath, but you must keep your oaths to the Lord.

Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself, but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:

“ Again, you have heard that it was said to an older generation,‘ Do not break an oath, but fulfill your vows to the Lord.’

When you vow a vow to Yahweh your God, you shall not be slack to pay it, for Yahweh your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.

“‘ You shall not swear by my name falsely, and profane the name of your God. I am Yahweh.

When you vow a vow to God, don’t defer to pay it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay that which you vow.It is better that you should not vow, than that you should vow and not pay.Don’t allow your mouth to lead you into sin. Don’t protest before the messenger that this was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

You shall observe and do that which has gone out of your lips. Whatever you have vowed to Yahweh your God as a free will offering, which you have promised with your mouth, you must do.

Make vows to Yahweh your God, and fulfill them! Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.

When a man vows a vow to Yahweh, or swears an oath to bind his soul with a bond, he shall not break his word. He shall do according to all that proceeds out of his mouth.“ Also, when a woman vows a vow to Yahweh and binds herself by a pledge, being in her father’s house, in her youth,and her father hears her vow and her pledge with which she has bound her soul, and her father says nothing to her, then all her vows shall stand, and every pledge with which she has bound her soul shall stand.But if her father forbids her in the day that he hears, none of her vows or of her pledges with which she has bound her soul, shall stand. Yahweh will forgive her, because her father has forbidden her.“ If she has a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips with which she has bound her soul,and her husband hears it, and says nothing to her in the day that he hears it; then her vows shall stand, and her pledges with which she has bound her soul shall stand.But if her husband forbids her in the day that he hears it, then he makes void her vow which is on her and the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul. Yahweh will forgive her.“ But the vow of a widow, or of her who is divorced, everything with which she has bound her soul shall stand against her.“ If she vowed in her husband’s house or bound her soul by a bond with an oath,and her husband heard it, and held his peace at her and didn’t disallow her, then all her vows shall stand, and every pledge with which she bound her soul shall stand.But if her husband made them null and void in the day that he heard them, then whatever proceeded out of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, shall not stand. Her husband has made them void. Yahweh will forgive her.Every vow, and every binding oath to afflict the soul, her husband may establish it, or her husband may make it void.But if her husband says nothing to her from day to day, then he establishes all her vows or all her pledges which are on her. He has established them, because he said nothing to her in the day that he heard them.But if he makes them null and void after he has heard them, then he shall bear her iniquity.”These are the statutes which Yahweh commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, between a father and his daughter, being in her youth, in her father’s house.

Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High.

“ Woe to you, you blind guides, who say,‘ Whoever swears by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gold of the temple, he is obligated.’You blind fools! For which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifies the gold?‘ Whoever swears by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever swears by the gift that is on it, he is obligated?’You blind fools! For which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifies the gift?He therefore who swears by the altar, swears by it, and by everything on it.He who swears by the temple, swears by it, and by him who has been living in it.He who swears by heaven, swears by the throne of God, and by him who sits on it.

Behold, on the mountains the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace! Keep your feasts, Judah! Perform your vows, for the wicked one will no more pass through you. He is utterly cut off.

“ You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God, for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.

“ You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God; for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.
