  • Num 30:2-9 : 2 Moses spoke to the leaders of the tribes of Israel, saying, 'This is what the LORD has commanded:' 3 If a man makes a vow to the LORD or swears an oath to bind himself by a promise, he must not break his word; he must do everything he said. 4 If a young woman living in her father’s household makes a vow to the LORD or obligates herself by a pledge, 5 and her father hears about her vow or pledge but says nothing to her, all her vows and every binding obligation she has made will stand. 6 But if her father rules against her when he hears about it, none of her vows or pledges by which she has obligated herself will stand. The LORD will forgive her because her father has objected to it. 7 If she marries after making a vow or rashly uttering a binding obligation by which she binds herself, 8 and her husband hears about it but says nothing to her, her vows or obligations she has made will stand. 9 But if her husband voids them when he hears about them, nothing she has vowed or promised by binding obligation will stand; the LORD will forgive her. 10 A widow or a divorced woman is bound by all her vows and the obligations she places on herself. 11 If a woman living in her husband's household makes a vow or takes an oath to bind herself by a pledge, 12 But if her husband hears about her vow and says nothing to her, he has approved all her vows and every obligation she has taken upon herself. They will stand. 13 But if her husband annuls them on the day he hears of them, then none of the words from her lips concerning her vows or the obligations she has taken upon herself will stand. Her husband has annulled them, and the LORD will forgive her. 14 Any vow or binding oath to deny herself can be confirmed or annulled by her husband. 15 But if her husband says nothing to her from one day to the next, he confirms all her vows or binding obligations that are upon her. He confirms them by saying nothing to her when he hears of them. 16 If he annuls them after he hears of them, then he must bear the consequences of her wrongdoing.
  • Lev 27:2-9 : 2 Speak to the Israelites and say to them: When someone makes a special vow to dedicate persons to the LORD according to your valuation, 3 the valuation for a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver according to the sanctuary shekel. 4 But if it is a female, the valuation shall be thirty shekels. 5 If the person is five to twenty years old, the valuation for a male shall be twenty shekels, and for a female, ten shekels. 6 If the person is one month old to five years old, the valuation for a male shall be five shekels of silver, and for a female, three shekels of silver. 7 If the person is sixty years old or older, the valuation shall be fifteen shekels for a male and ten shekels for a female. 8 If someone is too poor to pay the valuation, they shall present the individual before the priest, and the priest shall assess the value according to what the one making the vow can afford. 9 If it is an animal that can be offered as an offering to the LORD, whatever is given to the LORD shall be holy. 10 It must not be exchanged or substituted, whether good for bad or bad for good. If it is exchanged, both the animal and its substitute shall become holy. 11 If it is an unclean animal that cannot be offered to the LORD as a sacrifice, it must be presented before the priest. 12 The priest shall assess it as either good or bad; whatever value the priest assigns, that shall be its value. 13 If the owner wishes to redeem it, they must add a fifth to its value. 14 If someone consecrates their house as holy to the LORD, the priest shall value it as either good or bad; whatever value the priest assigns, so it shall remain. 15 If the one who consecrated it wishes to redeem their house, they must add a fifth to the valuation price, and it shall become theirs. 16 If someone dedicates part of their field as their possession to the LORD, the valuation will be based on how much seed is required to sow it—a homer of barley seed will be valued at fifty shekels of silver. 17 If they dedicate their field during the Year of Jubilee, the valuation will stand as it is. 18 But if they dedicate their field after the Jubilee, the priest will calculate the value based on the number of years left until the next Jubilee, and a reduction will be made from the original valuation. 19 If the person who dedicated the field wishes to redeem it, they must add a fifth to the valuation price, and the field will be theirs again. 20 If they do not redeem the field, or if they have sold it to someone else, it can no longer be redeemed. 21 When the field is released in the Jubilee, it will become holy to the LORD, like a field devoted to Him. It will belong to the priest as their possession. 22 If someone dedicates a field they purchased, one that is not part of their ancestral inheritance, to the LORD, 23 the priest will calculate its value up to the Year of Jubilee, and the person must pay the value on that day. It will be holy to the LORD. 24 In the Year of Jubilee, the field will return to the original owner from whom it was purchased, the one who holds it as their ancestral inheritance. 25 Every valuation will be according to the sanctuary shekel, where twenty gerahs make a shekel. 26 However, no one may dedicate the firstborn of their animals, because the firstborn already belongs to the LORD, whether it is an ox or a sheep. 27 If it is an unclean animal, it may be redeemed according to its valuation by adding a fifth of its value, or if not redeemed, it must be sold at its valuation. 28 Anything that is devoted to the LORD, whether a person, an animal, or a field from one's possession, cannot be sold or redeemed; everything devoted is most holy to the LORD. 29 No person who has been devoted to destruction for the LORD may be redeemed; they must be put to death. 30 A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the soil or fruit from the trees, belongs to the LORD; it is holy to the LORD. 31 If anyone wishes to redeem any part of their tithe, they must add a fifth of its value to it. 32 Every tithe of the herd or flock, every tenth animal that passes under the shepherd’s rod, will be holy to the LORD. 33 No one may pick out the good from the bad or make any substitution. If anyone does substitute one animal for another, both the original animal and its substitute shall become holy and cannot be redeemed. 34 These are the commandments the LORD gave Moses for the Israelites on Mount Sinai.
