< Job 22 >

1 And Eliphaz the Temanite answers and says:
Markaasaa Eliifas oo ahaa reer Teemaan u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
2 “Is a man profitable to God, Because a wise man is profitable to himself?
Ma nin baa Ilaah wax u tari kara? Hubaal kii xigmad lahu isagaa wax isu tara.
3 Is it a delight to the Mighty One That you are righteous? Is it gain, That you make your ways perfect?
Balse ma Ilaaha Qaadirka ah baa xaqnimadaada ku farxa? Mase faa'iido bay u tahay isaga inaad jidkaaga qummaatisid?
4 Because of your reverence Does He reason [with] you? He enters with you into judgment:
War ma cabsidaada daraaddeed buu kuu canaantaa? Oo saas daraaddeed miyuu dacwad kuula galaa?
5 Is your wickedness not abundant? And there is no end to your iniquities.
Sow sharkaagu ma badna? Xumaatooyinkaagu dhammaad ma laha.
6 For you take a pledge of your brother for nothing, And you strip off the garments of the naked.
Waayo, sababla'aan baad walaalkaa rahaamad uga qaadatay, Oo kuwii arradnaana dharkoodii baad ka mudhuxsatay.
7 You do not cause the weary to drink water, And you withhold bread from the hungry.
Kii daallanaana ma aadan siin biyo uu cabbo, Oo kii gaajaysnaana cunto baad ka hagratay.
8 As for the man of arm—he has the earth, And the accepted of face—he dwells in it.
Laakiinse ninkii xoog badnaa isagaa dhulka haystay; Oo ninkii sharaf lahaana isagaa dalka degganaa.
9 You have sent widows away empty, And the arms of the fatherless are bruised.
Carmallada baad gacan madhnaan ku eriday, Oo agoonta gacmahoodiina waa la jebiyey.
10 Therefore snares [are] all around you, And sudden fear troubles you.
Sidaas daraaddeed waxaa hareerahaaga ku wareegsan dabinno, Oo waxaa ku dhibaya cabsi kedis ah,
11 Or darkness—you do not see, And abundance of waters covers you.
Ama gudcur aadan waxba ku arki karin, Oo waxaa ku qariya biyo aad u badan.
12 Is God not high [in] the heavens? And see the summit of the stars, That they are high.
War sow Ilaah kuma jiro samada sare? Oo bal eega xiddigaha dheeraantooda iyo siday u sarreeyaan!
13 And you have said, How has God known? Does He judge through thickness?
Oo adna waxaad leedahay, War Ilaah muxuu yaqaan? Oo gudcurka qarada leh miyuu wax ku dhex xukumi karaa?
14 Thick clouds [are] a secret place to Him, And He does not see, And He habitually walks [above] the circle of the heavens.
Waxaa isaga ku wareegsan daruuro qaro waaweyn, si uusan wax u arag, Oo isagu wuxuu ku socdaa wareegga samada.
15 Do you observe the path of the age, That men of iniquity have trodden,
War ma waxaad doonaysaa inaad sii haysatid jidkii hore Ee sharrowyadu ku socon jireen?
16 Who have been cut down unexpectedly? A flood is poured out on their foundation.
Iyaba waxaa la dhufsaday wakhtigoodii ka hor, Oo aasaaskoodiina daad baa baabbi'iyey.
17 Those saying to God, Turn aside from us, And what does the Mighty One do to them?
Waxay Ilaah ku yidhaahdeen, War naga tag, Bal maxaa Ilaaha Qaadirka ahu nagu samayn karaa?
18 And He has filled their houses [with] good (And the counsel of the wicked Has been far from me).
Laakiin isagu wuxuu guryahooda ka buuxiyey waxyaalo wanwanaagsan; Talada sharrowguse way iga fog tahay.
19 The righteous see and they rejoice, And the innocent mocks at them:
Kuwa xaqa ahu way arkaan oo way farxaan, Oo kuwa aan xaqa qabinuna way ku qoslaan oo ku majaajiloodaan,
20 Surely our substance has not been cut off, And fire has consumed their excellence.
Waxayna yidhaahdaan, Sida xaqiiqada ah kuwii nagu kacay waa la baabbi'iyey, Oo kuwoodii hadhayna dab baa liqay.
21 Now acquaint yourself with Him, and be at peace, Thereby your increase [is] good.
Haddaba isaga la heshii, oo iska nabdoonow, Waayo, sidaasaa wanaag kuugu iman doonaa.
22 Please receive a law from His mouth, And set His sayings in your heart.
Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, sharciga afkiisa ka aqbal, Oo erayadiisana qalbigaaga geli.
23 If you return to the Mighty you are built up, You put iniquity far from your tents.
Waa lagu dhisi doonaa haddaad Ilaaha Qaadirka ah u noqotid, Oo aad xaqdarrada teendhooyinkaaga ka fogaysid.
24 So as to set a defense on the dust, And a covering on a rock of the valleys.
Khasnaddaada waxaad ku xoortaa ciidda, Oo dahabka Oofirna waxaad ku dhex tuurtaa dhagaxyada durdurka,
25 And the Mighty has been your defense, And silver [is] strength to you.
Oo Ilaaha Qaadirka ahuna wuxuu kuu noqon doonaa khasnad, Iyo lacag qiime badan.
26 For then you delight yourself on the Mighty, And lift up your face to God,
Oo markaasaad Ilaaha Qaadirka ah ku farxi doontaa, Oo wejigaagana Ilaah baad kor ugu qaadi doontaa.
27 You make supplication to Him, And He hears you, And you complete your vows.
Oo isagaad u tukan doontaa, oo isna wuu ku maqli doonaa, Oo adna waxaad bixin doontaa waxyaalihii aad nidartay.
28 And you decree a saying, And it is established to you, And light has shone on your ways.
Adiguna wax baad amri doontaa, oo waa laguu adkayn doonaa; Oo jidadkaaguna iftiin bay lahaan doonaan.
29 For they have made low, And you say, Lift up. And He saves the bowed down of eyes.
Markii hoos laguu tuuro, waxaad odhan doontaa, Waa lay sarraysiinayaa, Oo qofkii hooseeyana isagaa badbaadin doona.
30 He delivers the one [who is] not innocent, Indeed, he has been delivered By the cleanness of your hands.”
Oo wuxuu samatabbixin doonaa kii aan xaq qabin; Hubaal isaga waxaa lagu samatabbixin doonaa nadiifsanaanta gacmahaaga.
