Context — Regulations on Vows and Pledgesgenerated
Numbers 30:12 discusses the authority of a husband to nullify his wife's vows or pledges. This verse emphasizes the importance of communication and consent within the marital relationship, illustrating how vows made by the wife can be rendered void by her husband’s decision. This legal framework reflects the cultural context of ancient Israel, where family and marital dynamics were governed by specific laws.

The Key Word — הָפֵר֩, ha.Fergenerated
The verb הָפֵר (ha.Fer) comes from the root meaning 'to break' or 'to frustrate.' It is in the Hiphil stem, indicating causation, which means that the husband actively causes the vows to be invalidated. This word conveys the authority and responsibility placed upon the husband regarding his wife's commitments.
In this context, הָפֵר signifies the act of nullifying, which is not just a passive acknowledgment but an active decision that affects the validity of the promises made by the wife.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The verse contains a main clause that states the condition under which the husband's action takes place, followed by the consequences of that action. The structure emphasizes the relationship between the husband's decision and the validity of the wife's vows.
The finite verb יָפֵ֨ר (ya.Fer) is central to the sentence, indicating the husband's action, while the surrounding phrases clarify the timing and implications of that action. The word order highlights the conditional nature of the husband's authority.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
In the Septuagint, הָפֵר is rendered as ἀνὴρ (anēr), meaning 'man' or 'husband.' This choice reflects a direct translation that maintains the focus on the male partner's role in the context of vows.
The use of ἀνὴρ emphasizes the authority given to the husband within the marital relationship, aligning with the Hebrew text's intent.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Numbers 30:12 explains that if a husband hears about his wife's vows and decides to nullify them, those vows will not be valid. This shows the husband's authority in the marriage regarding his wife's commitments, and it indicates that the LORD will forgive her for these nullified vows.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
If a husband nullifies his wife's vows, those vows are no longer valid, and she is released from her obligations.
The husband's authority is significant in this context, but it is also a responsibility that comes with the expectation of careful consideration and communication.
The LORD's role signifies that divine forgiveness is available for the wife when her vows are nullified by her husband.
This verse highlights the importance of mutual respect and communication in marital relationships, as the husband's decisions directly impact the wife's commitments.

And her husband hath heard it, and helde his peace cocerning her, not disalowing her, then all her vowes shall stand, and euery bond, wherewith she bound her selfe, shall stand in effect.
Strictly literal
But if her husband have expressly annulled them on the day that he heard them, then nothing of that which is gone out of her lips as to her vows or the bond on her soul, shall stand: her husband hath annulled them; and Jehovah will pardon her.
'And if her husband doth certainly break them in the day of his hearing, none of the outgoing of her lips concerning her vows, or concerning the bond of her soul, is established — her husband hath broken them — and Jehovah is propitious to her.

But if her husband cancels them on the day that he heard about them, then whatever came out of her lips about her vows or promises will not remain in force. Her husband has canceled them. Yahweh will release her.
From the Latin
If her husband hear, and hold his peace, and doth not disallow the promise, she shall accomplish whatsoever she had promised.
Simplified
But if her husband disallows them as soon as he finds out about it, then none of her promises or oaths remain valid. The Lord will release her from keeping them because her husband has disallowed them.
But if her husband, on hearing of it, made them without force or effect, then whatever she has said about her oaths or her undertaking has no force: her husband has made them without effect, and she will have the Lord's forgiveness.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text is consistent with the Septuagint in the overall meaning, though the Samaritan Pentateuch presents three differing words that suggest variations in interpretation regarding the husband's role and the nature of the vows.
וְאִם־ הָפֵר֩ יָפֵ֨ר אֹתָ֥ם׀ אִישָׁהּ֮ בְּי֣וֹם שָׁמְעוֹ֒ כָּל־ מוֹצָ֨א שְׂפָתֶ֧יהָ לִנְדָרֶ֛יהָ וּלְאִסַּ֥ר נַפְשָׁ֖הּ לֹ֣א יָק֑וּם אִישָׁ֣הּ הֲפֵרָ֔ם וַיהוָ֖ה יִֽסְלַֽח־ לָֽהּ׃

da (yom; hemera): This common word has caused some trouble to plain readers, because they have not noticed that the word is used in several different senses in the English Bible. When the different uses of the word are understood the difficulty of interpretation vanishes. We note several different uses of the word:
(1) It sometimes means the time from daylight till dark. This popular meaning is easily discovered by the context, e. g. Ge 1:5; 8:22, etc. The marked periods of this daytime were morning, noon and night, as with us. See Ps 55:17. The early hours were sometimes called "the cool of the day" (Ge 3:8). After the exile the day. or daytime was divided into twelve hours and the night into twelve (see
Day
The Jews reckoned the day from sunset to sunset (Lev. 23:32). It was originally divided into three parts (Ps. 55:17). “The heat of the day” (1 Sam. 11:11; Neh. 7:3) was at our nine o’clock, and “the cool of the day” just before sunset (Gen. 3:8). Before the Captivity the Jews divided the night into three watches, (1) from sunset to midnight (Lam. 2:19); (2) from midnight till the cock-crowing (Judg. 7:19); and (3) from the cock-crowing till sunrise (Ex.…
The variable length of the natural day at different seasons led in the very earliest times to the adoption of the civil day (or one revolution of the sun) as a standard of time. The Hebrews reckoned the day from evening to evening, (Leviticus 23:32) deriving it from (Genesis 1:5) "the evening and the morning were the first day." The Jews are supposed, like the modern Arabs, to have adopted from an early period minute specifications of the parts of the natural day. Roughly, indeed, they were content to divide it into "morning, evening and noonday," (Psalms 55:17) but when they wished for greater accuracy they pointed to six unequal parts, each of which was again subdivided. These are held to have been -- "the dawn." "Sunrise."…
The day is distinguished into natural, civil, and artificial. The natural day is one revolution of the earth on its axis. The civil day is that, the beginning and the end of which are determined by the custom of any nation. The Hebrews began their day in the evening, Le 23:32; the Babylonians at sunrise; and we begin at midnight. The artificial day is the time of the sun’s continuance above the horizon, which is unequal according to different seasons, on account of the obliquity of the equator. The sacred writers generally divide the day into twelve hours. The sixth hour always ends at noon throughout the year; and the twelfth hour is the last hour before sunset. But in summer, all the hours of the day were longer than in winter, while those of night were shorter. See HOURS, and THREE.

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'
