But as for me, I will sing about your power. I will shout with joy each morning because of your unfailing love. For you have been my refuge, a place of safety in the day of distress.

A man who makes a vow to the LORD or makes a pledge under oath must never break it. He must do exactly what he said he would do.
"If a young woman makes a vow to the LORD or a pledge under oath while she is still living at her father's home,
and her father hears of the vow or pledge but says nothing, then all her vows and pledges will stand.
But if her father refuses to let her fulfill the vow or pledge on the day he hears of it, then all her vows and pledges will become invalid. The LORD will forgive her because her father would not let her fulfill them.
"Now suppose a young woman takes a vow or makes an impulsive pledge and later marries.
