Numbers 30:9
But every vow of a widow, and of her that is divorced, wherewith they have bound their souls, shall stand against her.
KJV
Sin autem audiens statim contradixerit, et irritas fecerit pollicitationes ejus, verbaque quibus obstrinxerat animam suam, propitius erit ei Dominus.
Vulgate
ἐὰν δὲ ἀνανεύων ἀνανεύσῃ ὁ ἀνὴρ αὐτῆς ᾗ ἐὰν ἡμέρᾳ ἀκούσῃ, πᾶσαι αἱ εὐχαὶ αὐτῆς καὶ οἱ ὁρισμοὶ αὐτῆς οὓς ὡρίσατο κατὰ τῆς ψυχῆς αὐτῆς οὐ μενοῦσιν, ὅτι ὁ ἀνὴρ ἀνένευσεν ἀπ’ αὐτῆς· καὶ Κύριος καθαριεῖ αὐτήν.
LXX
But the vow of a widow, or of her that is divorced, even everything wherewith she hath bound her soul, shall stand against her.
