Ecclesiastes 12
1 Remember your Creator while you are young, before days of trouble come and you grow old, saying, “I'm not enjoying life anymore.”
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 fades—sun, moon, and stars—and rain clouds return to darken the skies.
iyo intaan qorraxda, iyo iftiinka, iyo dayaxa, iyo xiddiguhuba ay wada madoobaan, ama intaan daruuruhu roobka ka daba noqon,
3 Before the guards of the house tremble and the strong men are bent over, the grinders stop working because there are only a few left, and the ones looking through the windows only 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 and the doors to the street are shut. Before the sound of the grinding mill grows low, and you wake up early when the birds are singing, but you can hardly hear them.
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 Before you develop a fear of heights and worry about going out on the streets; when the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper crawls along, and desire fails, for everyone has to go to their eternal home as the mourners go up and down the street.
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 Before the silver cord is snapped and the golden bowl is broken; before the water jug is smashed at the spring, or the pulley 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 Then the dust returns to the earth from which it came, and the breath of life returns to God who gave it.
iyo intaan ciiddu dhulka ku noqon siday horeba ahayd, oo ruuxuna ku noqon Ilaahii horeba siiyey.
8 “Everything passes! It's all so hard to understand!” says the Teacher.
Wacdiyuhu wuxuu leeyahay, Waa wax aan waxba tarayn, wax waluba waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
9 Not only was the Teacher a wise man, he also taught what he knew to others. He thought about many proverbs, studying them and arranging them.
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 looked for the best way to explain things, writing truthfully and honestly.
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 cattle prods. Their collected sayings are like nails driven home, given by one 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 In addition, my student, take care, for there's no end to book writing, and too much study wears you out.
Oo weliba, wiilkaygiiyow, waxyaalahan ku waano qaado. Buugag badan samayntoodu innaba dhammaad ma leh, oo waxbarashada badanuna jidhkay daalisaa.
13 To sum up now that everything has been discussed: Respect God by keeping his commandments, for that's what everyone should do.
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 God is going to judge us for everything we do, including what we do secretly, whether good or bad.
Waayo, Ilaah wuu xukumi doonaa shuqul kasta, iyo wax kasta oo qarsoon, ha fiicnaadeen ama ha xumaadeene.
