hibernate - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/validation/ParameterNameProvider

Question

I write small hibernate application and get following stacktrace:

org.hibernate.cfg.beanvalidation.IntegrationException: Error activating Bean Validation integration
    at org.hibernate.cfg.beanvalidation.BeanValidationIntegrator.integrate(BeanValidationIntegrator.java:154)
    at org.hibernate.internal.SessionFactoryImpl.<init>(SessionFactoryImpl.java:312)
    at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildSessionFactory(Configuration.java:1857)
    at com.beingjavaguys.hbn.HibernateUtil.buildSessionFactory(HibernateUtil.java:18)
    at com.beingjavaguys.hbn.HibernateUtil.<clinit>(HibernateUtil.java:10)

    at com.beingjavaguys.hbn.App.main(App.java:53)
Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/validation/ParameterNameProvider
...

I don't understand the reason of this mistake.

code:

       Configuration configuration = new Configuration();
        configuration.configure();
        ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder().applySettings(
                configuration.getProperties()).build();
        return configuration.buildSessionFactory(serviceRegistry); // exception thrown here

my pom.xml:

        <dependency>

        </dependency>

I have read related topics but I really don't understand how to fix it - I don't want to roll out to hibernate 4.0 version.

How to fix it?
