< Job 12 >
Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
2 "No doubt, but you are the people, and wisdom shall die with you.
Shakila'aan waxaad tihiin dadkii, Oo xigmad baa idinla dhiman doonta.
3 But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Yes, who doesn't know such things as these?
Laakiinse aniguba waxgarasho baan leeyahay sidiinna oo kale, Oo weliba idinkama aan liito. Bal waxyaalahan oo kale kan aan garanaynu waa ayo?
4 I am like one who is a joke to his neighbor, I, who called on God, and he answered. The just, the blameless man is a joke.
Waxaan la mid ahay sida mid saaxiibkiisu ku maadaysto, Anoo Ilaah baryay oo isna uu ii jawaabay, Ninkii xaq ah oo qumman waa lagu maadaystaa.
5 In the thought of him who is at ease there is contempt for misfortune. It is ready for them whose foot slips.
Kii istareexsan fikirkiisu waa yaraystaa nasiibdarrada, Laakiinse diyaar bay u tahay kuwa cagtoodu simbiriirixato.
6 The tents of robbers prosper. Those who provoke God are secure, who carry their god in their hands.
Kuwa wax dhaca teendhooyinkoodu way barwaaqoobaan, Oo kuwa Ilaah ka cadhaysiiyaana ammaan bay ku joogaan, Oo Ilaahna gacmahooduu wax kasta uga buuxshaa.
7 "But ask the animals, now, and they shall teach you; the birds of the sky, and they shall tell you.
Laakiinse haatan bal xayawaanka wax weyddii, oo iyana wax bay ku bari doonaan, Iyo haadka hawada, oo iyana wax bay kuu sheegi doonaan,
8 Or speak to the earth, and it shall teach you. The fish of the sea shall declare to you.
Amase bal dhulka la hadal, oo isna wax buu ku bari doonaa, Oo kalluunka badduna wax buu kuu sheegi doonaa.
9 Who doesn't know that in all these, the hand of Jehovah has done this,
Bal yuu yahay kan aan waxyaalahan oo dhan ka garanayn Inay gacanta Rabbigu waxan samaysay?
10 in whose hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all humankind?
Kaasoo gacantiisa ku haya nafta wax kasta oo nool Iyo neefta binu-aadmiga oo dhan.
11 Doesn't the ear try words, even as the palate tastes its food?
War sow dhegtu erayada ma kala soocdo, Sida dhanxanagguba cuntadiisa u dhadhamiyo?
12 With aged men is wisdom, in length of days understanding.
Odayaashu waxay leeyihiin xigmad, Oo cimriga dheerna waxaa laga helaa waxgarasho.
13 "With him is wisdom and might. He has counsel and understanding.
Isagu wuxuu leeyahay xigmad iyo xoog, Oo wuxuu leeyahay talo iyo waxgarasho.
14 Look, he breaks down, and it can't be built again. He imprisons a man, and there can be no release.
Bal eeg, isagu wax buu dumiyaa, Oo wuxuu dumiyana mar dambe lama dhisi karo, Nin buu xidhaa oo wax furi kara lama arko.
15 Look, he withholds the waters, and they dry up. Again, he sends them out, and they overturn the earth.
Biyuhuu celiyaa, oo way iska gudhaan, Oo haddana wuu soo daayaa, markaasay dhulka qarqiyaan.
16 With him is strength and wisdom. The deceived and the deceiver are his.
Xoog iyo xigmaduba isagay la jiraan, Oo kan la khiyaaneeyey iyo kan wax khiyaaneeyaba isagaa iska leh.
17 He leads counselors away stripped. He makes judges fools.
Taliyayaasha wuxuu u kaxaystaa sida booli la dhacay, Xaakinnadana nacasyo buu ka dhigaa.
18 He loosens the bond of kings. He binds their waist with a belt.
Wuxuu furaa boqorrada xidhan, Oo dhex-xidh buuna u xidhaa.
19 He leads priests away stripped, and overthrows the mighty.
Wadaaddadana sida booli la dhacay buu u kaxaystaa, Oo kuwa xoogga badanna wuu afgembiyaa.
20 He removes the speech of those who are trusted, and takes away the understanding of the elders.
Kuwa la aaminayna wuu hadal beeliyaa, Oo odayaashana waxgarashaduu ka qaadaa.
21 He pours contempt on princes, and loosens the belt of the strong.
Amiirrada wuxuu ku shubaa quudhsasho, Kuwa xoogga badanna suunkooduu debciyaa.
22 He uncovers deep things out of darkness, and brings out to light the shadow of death.
Wuxuu gudcurka ka soo saaraa waxyaalo mool dheer, Oo hooska dhimashadana iftiinkuu u soo bixiyaa.
23 He increases the nations, and he destroys them. He enlarges the nations, and he leads them captive.
Quruumaha wuu badiyaa, oo haddana wuu wada baabbi'iyaa, Oo quruumaha wuu ballaadhiyaa, oo haddana wuu kexeeyaa,
24 He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, and causes them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.
Wuxuu caqliga ka qaadaa madaxda dadyowga dhulka, Oo wuxuu iyaga ku warwareejiyaa meel cidla ah oo aan jid lahayn.
25 They grope in the dark without light. He makes them stagger like a drunken man.
Waxay wax ka haabhaabtaan gudcurka iyagoo aan iftiin lahayn, Oo wuxuu iyaga ka dhigaa inay u dhacdhacaan sida nin sakhraan ah.
