Ecclesiastes 10
1 Dead flies cause a perfumer’s perfume To send forth a stink; The precious by reason of wisdom—By reason of honor—a little folly!
Diqsiyadii dhintay saliidda cadarsameeyaha way qudhmiyaan, oo nacasnimadii yaruna saasoo kalay kan xigmadda loo sharfo u bi'isaa.
2 The heart of the wise [is] at his right hand, And the heart of a fool at his left.
Ninkii xigmad leh qalbigiisu xagga midigtuu u jeedaa, laakiinse nacaska qalbigiisu xagga bidixduu u jeedaa.
3 And also, when he that is a fool Is walking in the way, his heart is lacking, And he has said to everyone, “He [is] a fool.”
Oo weliba kan nacaska ahu markuu jidka marayo wuu caqli yaraadaa, oo ku alla kii uu arkaba wuxuu u sheegaa inuu nacas yahay.
4 If the spirit of the ruler goes up against you, do not leave your place, For yielding quiets great sinners.
Haddii taliyahu kugu dhirfo, meeshaada ha ka dhaqaaqin, waayo, qalbiqabowgu xumaano waaweyn wuu qabowjiyaa.
5 There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As ignorance that goes out from the ruler,
Waxaa jira wax shar ah oo aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku arkay, waxaana weeye qalad taliyaha ka yimaada.
6 He has set the fool in many high places, And the rich sits in a low place.
Nacasnimadu waxay joogtaa meelo sarsare oo waaweyn oo taajiriintuna waxay fadhiyaan meel hoose.
7 I have seen servants on horses, And princes walking as servants on the earth.
Waxaan arkay addoommo fardo fuushan, iyo amiirro sida addoommo oo kale lugaynaya.
8 Whoever is digging a pit falls into it, And whoever is breaking a hedge, a serpent bites him.
Kii god qodaa isagaa ku dhici doona, oo ku alla kii deyr dumiyana abeesaa qaniini doonta.
9 Whoever is removing stones is grieved by them, Whoever is cleaving trees endangered by them.
Ku alla kii dhagaxyo rujiyaaba wuu ku dhaawacmi doonaa, oo kii qoryo jejebiyaana isagaa khatar ku geli doona.
10 If the iron has been blunt, And he has not sharpened the face, Then he increases strength, And wisdom [is] advantageous to make right.
Haddii birtu af beesho, oo aan la soofayn, waa in xoog badan lagu sii kordhiyaa, laakiinse xigmaddu faa'iido bay leedahay si loogu liibaano.
11 If the serpent bites without enchantment, Then there is no advantage to a master of the tongue.
Haddii abeeso wax qaniinto iyadoo aan la falfalin, markaas ka dib falfalowgu waxtar ma leh.
12 Words of the mouth of the wise [are] gracious, And the lips of a fool swallow him up.
Kii xigmad leh erayada afkiisu waa raxmad miidhan, laakiinse bushimaha nacasku isaga qudhiisay baabbi'iyaan.
13 The beginning of the words of his mouth [is] folly, And the latter end of his mouth [Is] mischievous madness.
Erayada afkiisa bilowgoodu waa nacasnimo, oo dhammaadka hadalkiisuna waa waalli baas.
14 And the fool multiplies words: “Man does not know that which is—And that which is after him, who declares to him?”
Nacasku hadalkiisa wuu badiyaa, waxa ahaan doona binu-aadmigu garan maayo, oo waxa dabadiis dhici doonana bal yaa u sheegi kara?
15 The labor of the foolish wearies him, In that he has not known to go to the city.
Nacasyada hawshoodu midkood kastaba way daalisaa, maxaa yeelay, isagu xataa sida magaalada loo tago ma yaqaan.
16 Woe to you, O land, when your king [is] a youth, And your princes eat in the morning.
Dalkow, adaa iska hoogay, markii boqorkaagu ilmo yar yahay, oo amiirradaaduna ay aroortii wax cunaan!
17 Blessed are you, O land, When your king [is] a son of nobles, And your princes eat in due season, For might, and not for drunkenness.
Dalkow, waad barakaysan tahay, markii boqorkaagu nin gobeed yahay, oo amiirradaaduna ay wakhti habboon wax u cunaan inay xoog ku yeeshaan ee aan ahayn inay sakhraamaan!
18 By slothfulness is the wall brought low, And by idleness of the hands the house drops.
Caajisnimo badan saqafku waa ku dumaa, oo shuqulla'aanta gacmahana gurigaa ku darroora.
19 For mirth they are making a feast, And wine makes life joyful, And the silver answers with all.
Diyaafadda waxaa loo dhigaa qosol aawadiis, khamriguna naftuu u raaxeeyaa, oo lacagtu wax kastaba way ka jawaabtaa.
20 Even in your mind do not revile a king, And in the inner parts of your bed-chamber do not revile the rich: For a bird of the heavens causes the voice to go, And a possessor of wings declares the word.
Boqorka ha ku caayin xataa fikirkaaga, oo taajirkana ha ku caayin qolladdaada jiifka, waayo, shimbir hawada duusha ayaa codkaaga qaadi doonta, oo wax baalal leh ayaa xaalka sheegi doona.
