Proverbs 7
1 My son, accept what I say and value my instructions.
Wiilkaygiiyow, erayadayda xaji, Oo amarradaydana xaggaaga ku kaydso.
2 Do what I tell you and you will live. Observe my teachings, valuing them as your main focus in life.
Amarradayda xaji aad noolaatide, Oo sharcigaygana sida ishaada inankeeda u dhawr.
3 Tie them to your fingers; write them in your mind.
Farahaaga ku xidho, Oo looxa qalbigaagana ku qoro.
4 Tell wisdom, “You're my sister,” and call insight your best friend.
Waxaad xigmadda ku tidhaahdaa, Adigu waxaad tahay walaashay, Oo waxgarashadana waxaad ugu yeedhaa, saaxiibadday gacalisoy,
5 They will protect you from the immoral woman, from the prostitute with her seductive words.
Si ay iyagu kaaga celiyaan naagta qalaad, Taasoo erayadeeda kugu sasabata.
6 One time I looked through the lattice of the window in my house,
Waayo, anigoo jooga daaqadda gurigayga Ayaan shabagga daaqadda wax ka fiiriyey,
7 and I saw among the immature young men one who had no sense at all.
Oo kuwa garaadka daran ayaan fiiriyey, oo waxaan barbaarrada ku dhex arkay Nin dhallinyaraa oo aan innaba waxgarasho lahayn,
8 He was walking down the street near the corner where she lived and took the road passing her house.
Isagoo maraya dariiqa xaafaddeeda u dhow, Oo wuxuu raacay jidkii gurigeeda,
9 It was at dusk in the evening, as the light was fading and the dark night closed in.
Oo waxay ahayd gabbaldhac oo makhribka ah, markii habeenkii madoobaanayay oo gudcur noqonayay.
10 Then out came a woman came to meet him. She was dressed as a prostitute and had deceptive intentions.
Oo bal eeg, waxaa isagii ka hor timid naag Sidii dhillo u lebbisan, oo qalbigeedu khiyaano miidhan yahay.
11 (She was loud and provocative, never wanting to stay at home.
Iyadu waa rabshad badan tahay, waana caasiyad, Oo gurigeeda cag sooma dhigto.
12 One moment she'd be walking the streets, the next she'd be there in the town squares, loitering at every corner.)
Mar dibadday joogtaa, marna dariiqyaday maraysaa, Oo rukun kasta wax bay ku sugtaa.
13 She grabbed hold of him and kissed him, and with a bold face she told him,
Haddaba isagii way qabsatay, oo dhunkatay; Iyadoo aan wejigeedu xishood lahayn ayay waxay isagii ku tidhi,
14 “I sacrificed my peace offering today, and paid my vows.
Anigu waxaan hayaa allabaryo nabdeed, Oo maanta ayaan nidarradaydii bixiyey.
15 That's why I came out to meet you. I was looking for you and now I've found you!
Haddaba waxaan u soo baxay inaan kula kulmo, Oo aan aad iyo aad wejigaaga u doondoono, waanan ku helay.
16 My bed is made, covered with colorful linens from Egypt.
Sariirtaydii waxaan ku goglay durraaxado daabac leh, Iyo marooyin duntii Masar laga sameeyey.
17 I've sprinkled perfume on my bed—myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.
Waxaan sariirtaydii ku cadariyey Malmal iyo cuud iyo qorfe.
18 Come with me, let's make love until the morning. Let's enjoy one another in our love-making!
Kaalay, oo aan caashaq ka dheregno ilaa aroorta, Oo aynu jacayl ku faraxsanaanno.
19 My husband isn't home; he's gone on a long trip.
Waayo, ninkaygii guriga ma joogo, Oo meel fog buu u sodcaalay,
20 He took a bag of money with him, and he won't be coming back until the full moon.”
Kiish lacag ahna wuu qaatay, Oo wuxuu guriga ku soo noqon doonaa markuu dayaxu caddaado.
21 She convinced him with all that she said; she seduced him with her smooth talking.
Hadalkeedii badnaa oo macaanaa ayay isagii isku yeelsiisay, Oo waxay isagii ku qasabtay faankii beenta ahaa oo bushimeheeda.
22 He followed her right away, like an ox to the slaughter. Like a stag that's caught in a snare
Oo haddiiba iyadii buu daba galay, Sidii dibi loo wado in la gowraco, Ama sidii nacas loo wado in silsilado lagu jebiyo,
23 until an arrow pierces its liver, like a bird flying into a trap, he's unaware he will pay with his life.
Jeer fallaadh beerka lagaga wareemo, Sida shimbiru dabinka degdeg ku gasho, Iyadoo aan ogayn in loo dhigay si nafteeda loo qaado.
24 So now listen to me, my sons, and pay attention to what I'm saying.
Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed, wiilashoy, bal i maqla, Oo erayada afkayga dhegaysta.
25 Don't even think about following her. Don't stray down her road.
Qalbigiinnu yaanu jidadkeeda u leexan, Oo waddooyinkeedana ha ku dhex habaabina.
26 For she has brought down and destroyed a lot of men; she's killed so many.
Waayo, iyadu waxay ridday kuwa badan oo dhaawacan, Sida xaqiiqada kuway laysay aad bay u badan yihiin.
