< Ecclesiastes 12 >

1 Remember then thy Creator in the days of thy youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when thou shalt say: 'I have 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 sun, and the light, and the moon, and the stars, are 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 In the day when the keepers of the house shall tremble, and the strong men shall bow themselves, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look out shall be darkened in the windows,
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 shall be shut in the street, when the sound of the grinding is low; and one shall start up at the voice of a bird, and all the daughters of music shall be brought low;
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 Also when they shall be afraid of that which is high, and terrors shall be in the way; and the almond-tree shall blossom, and the grasshopper shall drag itself along, and the caperberry shall fail; because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about 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 Before the silver cord is snapped asunder, and the golden bowl is shattered, and the pitcher is broken at the fountain, and the wheel falleth shattered, into the pit;
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 And the dust returneth to the earth as it was, and the spirit returneth unto God who gave it.
iyo intaan ciiddu dhulka ku noqon siday horeba ahayd, oo ruuxuna ku noqon Ilaahii horeba siiyey.
8 Vanity of vanities, saith Koheleth; all is vanity.
Wacdiyuhu wuxuu leeyahay, Waa wax aan waxba tarayn, wax waluba waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
9 And besides that Koheleth was wise, he also taught the people knowledge; yea, he pondered, and sought out, and set in order 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 Koheleth sought to find out words of delight, and that which was written uprightly, even 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 as goads, and as nails well fastened are those that are composed in collections; they are given from 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 And furthermore, my son, be admonished: of making many books there is no end; and much study is a weariness of the flesh.
Oo weliba, wiilkaygiiyow, waxyaalahan ku waano qaado. Buugag badan samayntoodu innaba dhammaad ma leh, oo waxbarashada badanuna jidhkay daalisaa.
13 The end of the matter, all having been heard: fear God, and keep His commandments; for this is the whole 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 shall bring every work into the judgment concerning every hidden thing, whether it be good or whether it be evil.
Waayo, Ilaah wuu xukumi doonaa shuqul kasta, iyo wax kasta oo qarsoon, ha fiicnaadeen ama ha xumaadeene.
