And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, with which she bound her soul;
And if she had at all an husband, when she vowed, or uttered ought out of her lips, with which she bound her soul;
And if she be married to a husband, while her vows are upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul,
And if she is married to a husband at the time when she is under an oath or an undertaking given without thought;
And if she had a husband when she vowed, or uttered aught from her lips, with which she bound her soul;
"If she is [married] to a husband, while her vows are on her, or the rash utterance of her lips, with which she has bound her soul,
And if she be married to a husband, while her vows are upon her, or the rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul;
Rather, And if she shall at all be an husband's, and her vows shall be upon her, or a rash utterance of her lips, wherewith she hath bound her soul, etc. The "at all" intimates that the case of a girl betrothed but not yet actually married is here especially contemplated. After betrothal, a woman continued to reside, until the period of her marriage arrived, in her father's house; but her property was from that time forward vested in her husband, and she was so far regarded as personally his, that an act of faithlessness to him was, like adultery, punishable with death Deuteronomy 22:23-24. Hence, his right to control her vows even before he actually took her home as his wife.
