Job 12
1 Then responded Job, and said: —
Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
2 Of a truth, ye, are the people, and, with you, wisdom, will die.
Shakila'aan waxaad tihiin dadkii, Oo xigmad baa idinla dhiman doonta.
3 I also, have a mind like you, I, fall not short, of you, But who hath not 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 A laughing-stock to one’s neighbour, do I become, one who hath called upon GOD and he hath answered him! A laughing-stock—a righteous man without blame!
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 For ruin, there is contempt, in the thought of the man at ease, —ready, for such as are of faltering foot!
Kii istareexsan fikirkiisu waa yaraystaa nasiibdarrada, Laakiinse diyaar bay u tahay kuwa cagtoodu simbiriirixato.
6 At peace are the tents that belong to the spoilers, and there is security to them who provoke GOD, To him who bringeth a god in his hand.
Kuwa wax dhaca teendhooyinkoodu way barwaaqoobaan, Oo kuwa Ilaah ka cadhaysiiyaana ammaan bay ku joogaan, Oo Ilaahna gacmahooduu wax kasta uga buuxshaa.
7 But, in very deed, ask, I pray thee, the beasts, and they will teach thee, and the bird of the heavens, and it will tell thee;
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 address the earth, and it will teach thee, and the fishes of the sea, will recount it to thee:
Amase bal dhulka la hadal, oo isna wax buu ku bari doonaa, Oo kalluunka badduna wax buu kuu sheegi doonaa.
9 Who knoweth not, among all these, that, the hand of Yahweh, hath done this?
Bal yuu yahay kan aan waxyaalahan oo dhan ka garanayn Inay gacanta Rabbigu waxan samaysay?
10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the spirit of all the flesh of men.
Kaasoo gacantiisa ku haya nafta wax kasta oo nool Iyo neefta binu-aadmiga oo dhan.
11 Doth not, the ear, try, words? even as, the palate, tasteth for itself, food?
War sow dhegtu erayada ma kala soocdo, Sida dhanxanagguba cuntadiisa u dhadhamiyo?
12 In the Ancient, is wisdom, and [in] Length of Days, understanding:
Odayaashu waxay leeyihiin xigmad, Oo cimriga dheerna waxaa laga helaa waxgarasho.
13 With Him, are wisdom and strength, to Him, pertain counsel and understanding.
Isagu wuxuu leeyahay xigmad iyo xoog, Oo wuxuu leeyahay talo iyo waxgarasho.
14 Lo! He pulleth down, and it cannot be built, He closeth up over a man, and it cannot be opened:
Bal eeg, isagu wax buu dumiyaa, Oo wuxuu dumiyana mar dambe lama dhisi karo, Nin buu xidhaa oo wax furi kara lama arko.
15 Lo! He holdeth back the waters, and they dry up, or sendeth them out, and they transform the earth:
Biyuhuu celiyaa, oo way iska gudhaan, Oo haddana wuu soo daayaa, markaasay dhulka qarqiyaan.
16 With Him, is strength and effective wisdom, to Him, belong he that erreth, and he that causeth to err.
Xoog iyo xigmaduba isagay la jiraan, Oo kan la khiyaaneeyey iyo kan wax khiyaaneeyaba isagaa iska leh.
17 Who leadeth away counsellors [as] a spoil, and, judges, He befooleth:
Taliyayaasha wuxuu u kaxaystaa sida booli la dhacay, Xaakinnadana nacasyo buu ka dhigaa.
18 The fetters of kings, He looseth, or hath bound a slave’s waistcloth about their loins:
Wuxuu furaa boqorrada xidhan, Oo dhex-xidh buuna u xidhaa.
19 Who leadeth away priests [as] a spoil, and, men firmly seated, He overturneth:
Wadaaddadana sida booli la dhacay buu u kaxaystaa, Oo kuwa xoogga badanna wuu afgembiyaa.
20 Setting aside the speech of the trusty, and, the discernment of elders, He taketh away:
Kuwa la aaminayna wuu hadal beeliyaa, Oo odayaashana waxgarashaduu ka qaadaa.
21 Pouring contempt upon nobles, and, the girdle of the mighty, hath He loosed:
Amiirrada wuxuu ku shubaa quudhsasho, Kuwa xoogga badanna suunkooduu debciyaa.
22 Laying open deep things, out of darkness, and bringing out to light, the death-shade:
Wuxuu gudcurka ka soo saaraa waxyaalo mool dheer, Oo hooska dhimashadana iftiinkuu u soo bixiyaa.
23 Who giveth greatness to nations, or destroyeth them, Who spreadeth out nations, or leadeth them into exile:
Quruumaha wuu badiyaa, oo haddana wuu wada baabbi'iyaa, Oo quruumaha wuu ballaadhiyaa, oo haddana wuu kexeeyaa,
24 Who taketh away the sense of the chiefs of the people of the earth, and hath caused them to wander in a pathless waste:
Wuxuu caqliga ka qaadaa madaxda dadyowga dhulka, Oo wuxuu iyaga ku warwareejiyaa meel cidla ah oo aan jid lahayn.
25 They grope about in the dark, having no light, and He hath made them to reel, 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.
