Proverbs 7
1 My son, keep my words, and lay up my precepts with thee. Son,
Wiilkaygiiyow, erayadayda xaji, Oo amarradaydana xaggaaga ku kaydso.
2 Keep my commandments, and thou shalt live: and my law as the apple of thy eye:
Amarradayda xaji aad noolaatide, Oo sharcigaygana sida ishaada inankeeda u dhawr.
3 Bind it upon thy fingers, write it upon the tables of thy heart.
Farahaaga ku xidho, Oo looxa qalbigaagana ku qoro.
4 Say to wisdom: Thou art my sister: and call prudence thy friend,
Waxaad xigmadda ku tidhaahdaa, Adigu waxaad tahay walaashay, Oo waxgarashadana waxaad ugu yeedhaa, saaxiibadday gacalisoy,
5 That she may keep thee from the woman that is not thine, and from the stranger who sweeteneth her words.
Si ay iyagu kaaga celiyaan naagta qalaad, Taasoo erayadeeda kugu sasabata.
6 For I look out of the window of my house through the lattice,
Waayo, anigoo jooga daaqadda gurigayga Ayaan shabagga daaqadda wax ka fiiriyey,
7 And I see little ones, I behold a foolish young man,
Oo kuwa garaadka daran ayaan fiiriyey, oo waxaan barbaarrada ku dhex arkay Nin dhallinyaraa oo aan innaba waxgarasho lahayn,
8 Who passeth through the street by the corner, and goeth nigh the way of her house.
Isagoo maraya dariiqa xaafaddeeda u dhow, Oo wuxuu raacay jidkii gurigeeda,
9 In the dark, when it grows late, in the darkness and obscurity of the night,
Oo waxay ahayd gabbaldhac oo makhribka ah, markii habeenkii madoobaanayay oo gudcur noqonayay.
10 And behold a woman meeteth him in harlot’s attire prepared to deceive souls; talkative and wandering,
Oo bal eeg, waxaa isagii ka hor timid naag Sidii dhillo u lebbisan, oo qalbigeedu khiyaano miidhan yahay.
11 Not bearing to be quiet, not able to abide still at home,
Iyadu waa rabshad badan tahay, waana caasiyad, Oo gurigeeda cag sooma dhigto.
12 Now abroad, now in the streets, now lying in wait near the corners.
Mar dibadday joogtaa, marna dariiqyaday maraysaa, Oo rukun kasta wax bay ku sugtaa.
13 And catching the young man, she kisseth him, and with an impudent face, flattereth, saying:
Haddaba isagii way qabsatay, oo dhunkatay; Iyadoo aan wejigeedu xishood lahayn ayay waxay isagii ku tidhi,
14 I vowed victims for prosperity, this day I have paid my vows.
Anigu waxaan hayaa allabaryo nabdeed, Oo maanta ayaan nidarradaydii bixiyey.
15 Therefore I am come out to meet thee, desirous to see thee, and I have found thee.
Haddaba waxaan u soo baxay inaan kula kulmo, Oo aan aad iyo aad wejigaaga u doondoono, waanan ku helay.
16 I have woven my bed with cords, I have covered it with painted tapestry, brought from Egypt.
Sariirtaydii waxaan ku goglay durraaxado daabac leh, Iyo marooyin duntii Masar laga sameeyey.
17 I have perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
Waxaan sariirtaydii ku cadariyey Malmal iyo cuud iyo qorfe.
18 Come, let us be inebriated with the breasts, and let us enjoy the desired embraces, till the day appear.
Kaalay, oo aan caashaq ka dheregno ilaa aroorta, Oo aynu jacayl ku faraxsanaanno.
19 For my husband is not at home, he is gone a very long journey.
Waayo, ninkaygii guriga ma joogo, Oo meel fog buu u sodcaalay,
20 He took with him a bag of money: he mill return home the day of the full moon.
Kiish lacag ahna wuu qaatay, Oo wuxuu guriga ku soo noqon doonaa markuu dayaxu caddaado.
21 She entangled him with many words, and drew him away with the flattery of her lips.
Hadalkeedii badnaa oo macaanaa ayay isagii isku yeelsiisay, Oo waxay isagii ku qasabtay faankii beenta ahaa oo bushimeheeda.
22 Immediately he followeth her as an ox led to be a victim, and as a lamb playing the wanton, and not knowing that he is drawn like a fool to bonds,
Oo haddiiba iyadii buu daba galay, Sidii dibi loo wado in la gowraco, Ama sidii nacas loo wado in silsilado lagu jebiyo,
23 Till the arrow pierce his liver: as if a bird should make haste to the snare, and knoweth not that his life is in danger.
Jeer fallaadh beerka lagaga wareemo, Sida shimbiru dabinka degdeg ku gasho, Iyadoo aan ogayn in loo dhigay si nafteeda loo qaado.
24 Now therefore, my son, hear me, and attend to the words of my mouth.
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed, wiilashoy, bal i maqla, Oo erayada afkayga dhegaysta.
25 Let not thy mind be drawn away in her ways: neither be thou deceived with her paths.
Qalbigiinnu yaanu jidadkeeda u leexan, Oo waddooyinkeedana ha ku dhex habaabina.
26 For she hath cast down many wounded, and the strongest have been slain by her.
Waayo, iyadu waxay ridday kuwa badan oo dhaawacan, Sida xaqiiqada kuway laysay aad bay u badan yihiin.
