Numbers 30:10 - The Message10-15 “When a woman who is living with her husband makes a vow or takes a pledge under oath and 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. But 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. Any vow and pledge that she makes that may be to her detriment can be either affirmed or annulled by her husband. But 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. If, however, he cancels them sometime after he hears of them, he takes her guilt on himself.” Ver CapítuloMás versionesKing James Version (Oxford) 176910 And if she vowed in her husband's house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath; Ver CapítuloAmplified Bible - Classic Edition10 And if she vowed in her husband's house or bound herself by a pledge with an oath Ver CapítuloAmerican Standard Version (1901)10 And if she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound her soul by a bond with an oath, Ver CapítuloCommon English Bible10 If a woman makes a solemn promise in her husband’s household or makes a binding obligation for herself with a solemn pledge, Ver CapítuloCatholic Public Domain Version10 Widows and divorced women shall repay whatever they have vowed.

Elkanah said to his wife, “Do what you think is best. Stay home until you have weaned him. Yes! Let God complete what he has begun!” So she did. She stayed home and nursed her son until she had weaned him. Then she took him up to Shiloh, bringing also the makings of a generous sacrificial meal—a prize bull, flour, and wine. The child was so young to be sent off!
