< Job 28 >

1 Though there is, for silver, a vein, and a place for the gold they refine;
Hubaal lacagtu waxay leedahay god laga qodo, Oo dahabkuna wuxuu leeyahay meel lagu safeeyo.
2 Iron, out of the ore, is taken, and, stone, poureth out copper;
Birta waxaa laga soo bixiyaa ciidda, Oo naxaastana waxaa laga dhalaaliyaa dhagaxa.
3 An end, hath one set to the darkness, and, into every extremity, is, he, making search, for the stone of darkness and death-shade;
Dadku gudcurkuu dhammeeyaa, Oo tan iyo soohdinta ugu shishaysana waxay baadhaan Dhagaxyada ku jira gudcurka qarada leh iyo hooska dhimashada.
4 He hath sunken a shaft, away from the inhabitants; Places forsaken by the foot, they hang down, away from men, sway to and fro;
Isagu god dheer ayuu ka qodaa meel ka fog meesha dadku deggan yahay. Iyaga waxaa illooba qofka ag mara; Oo waxay ka laallaadaan meel dadka ka fog, oo hor iyo dib bay u ruxmadaan.
5 As for the earth, out of it, cometh forth bread, and, under it, is upturned, as it were fire;
Cuntadu dhulkay ka soo baxdaa, Oo dhankiisa hoosena wuu rogmadaa sida wax dabku rogo oo kale.
6 The place of sapphires, are the stones thereof, and it hath, nuggets of gold: —
Dhagaxyadiisu waa meeshii dhagaxyo safayr ah, Wuxuuna leeyahay dahab boodh ah.
7 A path, the vulture hath not discerned, nor hath the eye of the hawk scanned it;
Wadiiqadaas haadka adagu ma yaqaan, Oo gorgorka ishiisuna ma ay arag,
8 Ravenous beasts have not made a track thereof, neither hath the lion marched thereon:
Bahallada kibirka lahu kuma ay joogsan, Oo libaaxa cadhaysanina ma uu ag marin.
9 Upon the flint, hath he thrust forth his hand, He hath turned up mountains by the roots;
Isagu gacantiisuu soo fidiyaa oo wuxuu saaraa dhagaxa adag, Oo buurahana wuu afgembiyaa oo xididdaduu ku rujiyaa.
10 Among the rocks, hath he cut open streams, and, every precious thing, hath his eye seen:
Dhagaxyada dhexdooda wuxuu ka jeexaa keliyo, Oo ishiisuna wax kasta oo qaali ah way aragtaa.
11 From trickling, he restraineth, rivers, and, some hidden thing, is he bringing out to light.
Wuxuu xidhaa durdurrada si ayan u dareerin, Oo waxa qarsoonna wuxuu u soo bannaan bixiyaa iftiinka.
12 Yet where can, Wisdom, be found? And where is the place of understanding?
Laakiinse waa xaggee meesha xigmadda laga helaa? Oo waxgarashada meesheeduse waa xaggee?
13 Mortal knoweth not the way thereof, neither can it be found in the land of the living;
Dadku qiimaheeda ma yaqaan, Oo kuwa nool dalkoodana lagama helo.
14 The resounding deep, hath said, It is not in me! And, the sea, hath said, It is not with me!
Moolku wuxuu leeyahay, Iguma jirto, Badduna waxay leedahay, Aniga ilama jirto.
15 Pure gold cannot be given in its stead, neither can silver he weighed as the value thereof;
Dahab laguma heli karo, Lacagna looma miisaamo.
16 It cannot be put into the scales against the gold of Ophir, with costly onyx, or sapphire;
Laguma qiimayn karo dahabka Oofir, Ama dhagaxa qaaliga ah oo onika la yidhaahdo ama xataa dhagaxa safayr la yidhaahdo.
17 Neither gold nor crystal can compare with it, nor can, the exchange thereof, be a vessel of pure gold,
Dahab iyo madarad toona uma qalmi karaan, Oo beddelkeeduna ma noqon karo jawhar laga sameeyo dahab saafi ah.
18 Coral or crystal, cannot be mentioned, Yea, a possession, is wisdom, above red coral;
Waxba lagama sheegi doono dhagax cas oo raamood la yidhaahdo, amase madarad, Hubaal xigmadda qiimaheedu waa ka sii sarreeyaa luul.
19 The topaz of Ethiopia cannot compare with it, Against purest gold, can it not be weighed.
Dhagaxa tobasiyos la yidhaahdo ee Itoobiya ka yimaadana uma qalmi doono, Oo xataa dahab saafi ahna laguma qiimayn doono.
20 Whence then cometh, wisdom? And where is the place of understanding?
Haddaba xigmaddu xaggee bay ka timaadaa? Oo waxgarashada meesheeduse waa xaggee?
21 Seeing it hath been hid from the eyes of every living thing, and, from the bird of the heavens, hath it been concealed?
Maxaa yeelay, way ka qarsoon tahay kuwa nool indhahooda, Oo haadka hawadana waa laga deday.
22 Destruction and death, have said, With our ears, have we heard the report thereof!
Halligaadda iyo Dhimashadu waxay leeyihiin, Dhegahayaga ayaannu warkeeda ku maqalnay.
23 GOD, understandeth the way thereof, and, he, discerneth the place thereof;
Ilaah ayaa jidkeeda garanaya, Oo isagaa meesheeda yaqaan.
24 For, he, unto the ends of the earth, directeth his look, under all the heavens, he seeth;
Waayo, isagu wuxuu fiiriyaa dunida darfaheeda, Oo wuxuu u jeedaa inta samada ka hoosaysa oo dhan,
25 Making, for the wind, a weight, and, the waters, he proved by measure,
Markuu dabaysha miisaamo, Oo uu biyahana qiyaaso.
26 When he made, for the rain, a decree, and a way for the lightning of thunders,
Markuu roobka qaynuun u sameeyey, Oo uu hillaaca onkodkana jid u sameeyey,
27 Then, saw he it, and declared it, He settled it, yea also he searched it out;
Ayuu arkay, oo ka hadlay, Oo intuu adkeeyey ayuu weliba baadhay.
28 And said to the son of earth, Lo! the reverence of the Lord, that, is wisdom, and, to avoid evil, is understanding.
Oo wuxuu dadka ku yidhi, Bal eega, Sayidka ka cabsashadiisa ayaa xigmad ah, Oo in sharka laga fogaadona waa waxgarasho.
