Any devoted thing is most sacred. It belongs to the LORD. ²⁹ But anyone who is completely devoted from among human beings is not to be ransomed. He is certainly to be put to death.

The LORD will forgive her. ¹³ Her husband may confirm or revoke every vow and binding obligation that afflicts her. ¹⁴ But if her husband remains silent about her from day to day, then he has affirmed all her vows or obligations that she has obligated herself to fulfill. He has affirmed them because he remained silent from the day he heard her vows. ¹⁵ But if he nullified them after he had heard, then he will be responsible for any resulting iniquity.”
