Then shalt thou be clear from this my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give not thee one, thou shalt be clear from my oath.

τότε ἀθῷος ἔσῃ ἐκ τῆς ⸆ ἀρᾶς μου· ἡνίκα γὰρ ἐὰν ἔλθῃς εἰς τὴν φυλήν μου καὶ μὴ δῶσίν σοι, καὶ ἔσῃ ἀθῷος ἀπὸ τοῦ ⸂⸆⸃ ὁρκισμοῦ μου.

LXX

then shalt thou be clear from my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give her not to thee, thou shalt be clear from my oath.
