Ecclesiastes 7
1 A good reputation is better than expensive perfume, and the day you die is better than the day you were born.
Magac wanaagsanu waa ka sii fiican yahay saliid qaali ah, oo maalinta dhimashaduna waa ka fiican tahay maalinta dhalashada.
2 It's better to go to a funeral than to a party. In the end, everyone dies, and those who are still alive should think about it.
In guriga diyaafadda la tago waxaa ka wanaagsan in guriga baroorashada la tago, waayo, taasaa dadka oo dhan u dambaysa, oo kuwa nooluna qalbigay taas gashan doonaan.
3 Sorrow is better than laughter, for tragedy helps us by making us think.
Qosol waxaa ka wanaagsan murug, waayo, qalbigu wuxuu ku wanaagsanaadaa wejiga caloolxumadiisa.
4 Wise people think about the impact of death, while those who are fools only think about having a good time.
Qalbiga kuwa xigmadda lahu wuxuu ku jiraa guriga baroorashada, laakiinse qalbiga nacasyadu wuxuu ku jiraa guriga farxadda.
5 It's better to listen to criticism from a wise person than to hear the song of fools.
Nin intuu nacasyada gabaygooda maqli lahaa waxaa ka wanaagsan inuu canaanta kuwa xigmadda leh maqlo.
6 The laughter of fools is like the crackling of thorn twigs burning under a pot—without sense and quickly over.
Waayo, qosolka nacasku waa sida qodxo dheri hoostiis ka jacjac leh, oo taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
7 Extorting money from others makes wise people into fools, and accepting bribes corrupts the mind.
Hubaal dulmigu nin xigmad leh wuu waalaa, oo laaluushkuna qalbiguu ka kharribaa.
8 Completing something is better than starting it. Being patient is better than being proud.
Wax bilowgiisa waxaa ka wanaagsan dhammaadkiisa, oo kii dulqaadasho badanuna waa ka wanaagsan yahay kii kibir badan.
9 Don't be quick to get angry, for anger controls the minds of fools.
Xanaaq ha ku degdegin, waayo, xanaaqu wuxuu ku jiraa laabta nacasyada.
10 Don't ask, “Why were the good old days better than now?” Asking such questions shows you are not wise.
Ha odhan, Waayihii hore bal maxay kuwan uga fiicnaayeen? Waayo, xaalkan si caqliya u weyddiin maysid.
11 Wisdom is good—it's like receiving an inheritance. It benefits everyone in life.
Xigmaddu sida dhaxal oo kale ayay u wanaagsan tahay, oo waa u faa'iido kuwa qorraxda arka.
12 For wisdom provides security, as does money, but the advantage for those who have wisdom is that they are kept safe and sound!
Waayo, xigmaddu waxay wax u daafacdaa sida lacagtu wax u daafacdo oo kale, laakiinse aqoonta faa'iidadeedu waa in xigmaddu ay nabadgeliso kuwa iyada haysta.
13 Think about what God does. If he makes something bent, you can't straighten it!
Bal Ilaah shuqulkiisa ka fiirso, waayo, wixii uu isagu qalloociyey bal yaa toosin kara?
14 On a good day, be happy. When a bad day comes, stop and think. God made each day, so you don't know what will happen to you next.
Maalintii aad barwaaqaysan tahay aad u faraxsanow, oo maalintii aad dhibaataysan tahayna aad u fiirso in Ilaah mid u sameeyey sida kan kale si uusan ninna u ogaan karin waxa isaga dabadiis jiri doona.
15 Throughout my life I've seen so much that is hard to understand. Good people who die young despite doing what is right, and wicked people who live long evil lives.
Waxaa jira nin xaq ah oo xaqnimadiisa ku halligma iyo nin shar ah oo sharnimadiisa ku cimri dheeraada; labadaba wakhtigii aan waxtarka lahayn ee aan noolaa ayaan arkay.
16 Don't think you can make yourself right by a lot of religious observance, and don't pretend to be so wise. Do you want to destroy yourself?
Aad xaq ha u noqon oo hana iska dhigin mid aad xigmad u leh, waayo, bal maxaad isu baabbi'inaysaa?
17 On the other hand, don't decide to live an evil life—don't be a fool! Why die before your time?
Aad sharrow ha u noqon, oo nacasna ha noqon, waayo, bal maxaad wedkaaga ka hor u dhimanaysaa?
18 You ought to keep in mind these warnings. Those who follow God will be sure to avoid both.
Waxaa kuu wanaagsan inaad tan xagsatid, oo aadan gacantaadana dib uga ceshan, waayo, kii Ilaah ka cabsada waxan oo dhan ayuu ka soo bixi doonaa.
19 Wisdom gives a wise person greater power than ten town councilors.
Xigmaddu kan xigmadda leh way uga xoog badan tahay toban taliye oo magaalada jooga.
20 There's not one good person in all the world who always does what is right and never sins.
Waayo, dhulka laguma arag nin xaq ah oo wanaag fala, oo aan dembaabin.
21 Don't take to heart everything that people say, otherwise you may hear your servant talking badly about you,
Wax kasta oo lagu hadlo ha dhegaysan, waaba intaasoo aad maqashaa addoonkaaga oo ku habaarayee.
22 for you know how many times you yourself have talked badly about others!
Waayo, marar badan ayaa qalbigaagu og yahay inaad adba saasoo kale u habaartid kuwo kale.
23 I have examined all this using the principles of wisdom. I told myself, “I will think wisely.” But wisdom eluded me.
Waxyaalahan oo dhan xigmad baan ku tijaabiyey. Waxaan is-idhi, Xigmad baan yeelan doonaa, laakiinse xigmaddii way iga fogayd.
24 Everything that exists is beyond our grasp—too deep for our understanding. Who can comprehend it?
Waayo, bal yaa gaadhi kara wixii aad u fog ee mool dheer?
25 I turned my thoughts to discover, investigate, and to find out more about wisdom and what makes sense. I wanted to know more about how stupid evil really is, and how ridiculous it is to be a fool.
Waxaan qalbigayga oo dhan u diyaariyey oo u soo jeediyey inaan ogaado, oo baadho, oo aan doondoono xigmad iyo wax kasta sababtiisa, iyo inaan ogaado in sharnimadu tahay nacasnimo, iyo in doqonnimadu tahay waalli.
26 I discovered something more horrible than death: foolishness like a woman who tries to entrap you, who wants to use her mind and hands to catch you and tie you up. Those who follow God will not be caught, but sinners will fall into her trap.
Oo waxaan soo ogaaday wax xataa dhimashada ka sii qadhaadh, waana naag qalbigeedu yahay dabinno iyo shabagyo, oo ay gacmeheeduna yihiin jeebbooyin. Ku alla kii Ilaah ka farxiyo iyaduu ka baxsan doonaa, laakiinse dembilaha way qabsan doontaa.
27 This is what I discovered after putting two and two together to try and find out what it all meant, says the Teacher.
Wacdiyuhu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, si aan sababta u garto ayaan midba mid ku daray oo waxaasaan soo helay.
28 Although I really searched, I didn't find what I was looking for. People say, “I found one man among a thousand, but not one woman.”
Oo weliba waan sii doondoonayaa, laakiinse ma aan helo. Kun nin dhexdood ayaan nin qudha ka helay, laakiinse kuwaas oo dhan xataa naag qudha kama helin.
29 But I did find this one thing: God made people to do what's right, but they have followed their own ideas.
Bal eeg, waxan keliya oo aan soo ogaaday in Ilaah binu-aadmiga sameeyey iyagoo qumman, laakiinse waxay doondooneen hindisooyin badan.
