# have said with your mouths and carried out with your hands what you said
Here "mouths" and "hands" represent the whole person. AT: "have done what you promised to do when you said" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
# carry out the vows
"fulfill the vows" or "complete the vows"
# Now fulfill your vows; carry them out

AT: "Very well! If that is what you want to do, then go fulfill your vows and do what you promised to do" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-irony]])

The word "now" does not mean "at this moment," but is used to draw attention to the important point that follows.
