< Ecclesiastes 12 >
1 Remember your Creator in the days of your youth, before the days of adversity come and the years approach of which you will say, “I find no pleasure in them,”
Haddaba wakhtiga dhallinyaranimadaada Abuurahaaga xusuuso intaan maalmaha xumu kuu iman, ama ayan kuu soo dhowaan sannadaha aad odhan doonto, Sannadahan kuma istareexo,
2 before the light of the sun, moon, and stars is darkened, and the clouds return after the rain,
iyo intaan qorraxda, iyo iftiinka, iyo dayaxa, iyo xiddiguhuba ay wada madoobaan, ama intaan daruuruhu roobka ka daba noqon,
3 on the day the keepers of the house tremble and the strong men stoop, when those grinding cease because they are few and those watching through windows see dimly,
iyo inta kuwa guriga dhawraa ay gariiraan, oo nimanka xoogga badanuna ay soo gotaan, oo kuwa wax shiidaana ay tiradooda yar aawadeed shuqulka u joojiyaan, oo kuwa daaqadaha wax ka fiiriyaana ay madoobaadaan,
4 when the doors to the street are shut and the sound of the mill fades away, when one rises at the sound of a bird and all the daughters of song grow faint,
iyo inta albaabbada jidadka lagu xidho, iyo inta sanqadha shiididdu ay gaaban tahay, oo shimbirta cideeda lagu tooso, oo gabdhaha muusikaduna ay wada taag darnaadaan.
5 when men fear the heights and dangers of the road, when the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper loses its spring, and the caper berry shrivels— for then man goes to his eternal home and mourners walk the streets.
Waxa sarreeya ayay ka baqi doonaan, oo jidadka dhexdoodana waxyaalo cabsi ah ayaa jiri doona, oo geedka yicibtu waa ubxin doonaa, oo koronkorraduna way isculaysin doonaan, oo damacuna wuu baabbi'i doonaa, maxaa yeelay, binu-aadmigu wuxuu tagaa hoygiisa daa'imka ah, oo kuwa baroortaana jidadkay warwareegaan.
6 Remember Him before the silver cord is snapped and the golden bowl is crushed, before the pitcher is shattered at the spring and the wheel is broken at the well,
Abuurahaaga xusuuso intaan xadhigga lacagta ahu kala go'in, ama aan maddiibadda dahabka ahu kala jabin, ama aan jalxaddu isha biyeed agteeda ku burburin, ama aan giraangirta ceelku jabin,
7 before the dust returns to the ground from which it came and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
iyo intaan ciiddu dhulka ku noqon siday horeba ahayd, oo ruuxuna ku noqon Ilaahii horeba siiyey.
8 “Futility of futilities,” says the Teacher. “Everything is futile!”
Wacdiyuhu wuxuu leeyahay, Waa wax aan waxba tarayn, wax waluba waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
9 Not only was the Teacher wise, but he also taught the people knowledge; he pondered, searched out, and arranged many proverbs.
Oo haddana wacdiyuhu xigmad buu lahaa, oo weliba dadkuu aqoon baray. Wuxuu aad uga fikiray, oo baadhay, oo isku hagaajiyey maahmaahyo badan.
10 The Teacher searched to find delightful sayings and to record accurate words of truth.
Wacdiyuhu wuxuu doonay inuu soo helo erayo la aqbalo iyo wixii si qumman loo qoray oo ahaa hadal run ah.
11 The words of the wise are like goads, and the anthologies of the masters are like firmly embedded nails driven by a single Shepherd.
Erayada kuwa xigmadda lahu waa sida wax wax muda oo kale, oo maahmaahyada la soo ururshayna waa sida musmaarro la adkeeyey; adhijir qudha ayaa bixiyey.
12 And by these, my son, be further warned: There is no end to the making of many books, and much study wearies the body.
Oo weliba, wiilkaygiiyow, waxyaalahan ku waano qaado. Buugag badan samayntoodu innaba dhammaad ma leh, oo waxbarashada badanuna jidhkay daalisaa.
13 When all has been heard, the conclusion of the matter is this: Fear God and keep His commandments, because this is the whole duty of man.
Xaalkan soo koobiddiisii waa tan. Waa la wada maqlay. Ilaah ka cabso, oo amarradiisana dhawr, waayo, taasu waa waxa binu-aadmiga oo dhan u gudboon.
14 For God will bring every deed into judgment, along with every hidden thing, whether good or evil.
Waayo, Ilaah wuu xukumi doonaa shuqul kasta, iyo wax kasta oo qarsoon, ha fiicnaadeen ama ha xumaadeene.
