Proverbs 27
1 Do not boast about [what you will do] tomorrow, because you do not know what will happen [PRS] on any day.
Kada ka yi fariya a kan gobe gama ba san abin da ranar za tă kawo ba.
2 Do not praise yourself [MTY, PRS]; allow others to praise you. If someone else praises you, that is okay.
Ka bar wani ya yabe ka, ba kai kanka ba; wani dabam, ba leɓunanka ba.
3 [It causes pain to our bodies to carry heavy] stones or [a pail full of] sand, but doing something stupid/foolish [can cause] great [pain to other people’s spirits.]
Dutse yana da nauyi yashi kuma wahala ce, amma tsokanar wawa ta fi su duka nauyi.
4 It is cruel to be angry [with others], and our being angry sometimes destroys [others], but being jealous of someone is [RHQ] often more cruel than that.
Fushi mugun abu ne mai hallakarwa, amma wa zai iya tsaya a gaban kishi?
5 It is better to correct someone openly than to show that you l don’t love that person [by not correcting him].
Gara tsawatawar da ake yi a fili da ƙaunar da ake yi a ɓoye.
6 If a friend criticizes you, [he is a good friend and] you can trust him; but if one of your enemies kisses you, he is [probably wanting to] deceive you.
Za a iya amince da rauni daga aboki, amma abokin gāba ko da ya sumbace ka kada ka sake da shi!
7 When someone’s stomach is full, he does not want to eat honey; but when someone is [very] hungry, he thinks that [even] bitter things taste sweet.
Duk wanda ya ƙoshi da zuma, ba ya marmarinsa kuma amma wanda yake yunwa ko abin da yake da ɗaci ma zai ji shi da zaƙi.
8 Anyone who wanders [far] from his home/family is like [SIM] a bird that is far from its nest.
Kamar tsuntsun da ya ɓace daga sheƙarsa haka yake da mutumin da ya bar gidansa.
9 [Putting olive] oil and perfume on a person’s skin causes him to feel good, but having a friend [who gives] good advice [is even better].
Man shafawa mai ƙanshi da kuma turare kan faranta zuciya, gaisuwar amini kuma takan fito daga shawarar kirki.
10 Do not neglect your friends or your parents’ friends; and at a time when you are experiencing a disaster, do not go to a relative [who lives far away to request his help]; someone who lives near you can help you more than relatives who live far away.
Kada ka manta da abokinka da kuma abokin mahaifinka, kuma kada ka tafi gidan ɗan’uwanka sa’ad da masifa ta same ka, gara ka je wurin maƙwabci na kusa da ka je wurin ɗan’uwan da yake da nisa.
11 My child/son, cause me to be happy by becoming wise, in order that I will [know how to] reply to those who would criticize me [about your behavior].
Ka zama mai hikima, ɗana, ka kuma faranta mini zuciya; zan iya amsa kowace irin suƙar da wani zai yi mini.
12 Those who have good sense will realize that there is something dangerous ahead, and they will hide; those who do not have good sense [just] keep going, and later they will suffer because of [doing] that.
Mai basira kan hango hatsari ya kuma kauce, marar azanci zai yi ta kutsa kai ciki, daga baya ya yi da na sani.
13 [You deserve to] have your property taken from you if you [foolishly] promise to a stranger (OR, a strange woman) that you will pay what she owes if she is unable to pay it [DOU].
A karɓe rigunan wanda ya ɗauki lamunin baƙo; a riƙe shi jingina in ya yi shi don mace marar aminci.
14 If you rise early in the morning and call out a greeting to your neighbor [while he is still sleeping], he will consider it to be a curse, [not a blessing].
In mutum ya albarkaci maƙwabcinsa da murya mai ƙarfi da sassafe, za a ɗauka shi a matsayin la’ana.
15 [Having] a wife that is [constantly] nagging is as [bad as listening] to rain continually dripping on a rainy day.
Mace mai fitina kamar ɗiɗɗigar ruwa take ba ƙaƙƙautawa;
16 [Trying] to restrain/stop her [from doing that] is as [difficult] [SIM] [as trying] to stop the wind or [trying] to hold oil in your hand.
hana ta yana kamar yin ƙoƙari tsai da iska ne ko yin ƙoƙarin cafke mai a tafin hannunka.
17 [We can use one] iron tool to sharpen [another] iron [tool]; similarly [SIM], [when one person shares] what he is thinking, it can help other people [to think more clearly].
Kamar yadda ƙarfe kan wasa ƙarfe haka mutum kan koyi daga mutum.
18 Those who take care of fig trees will have figs to eat; [similarly], servants who protect their master will be honored [by him].
Duk wanda ya lura da itacen ɓaure, zai ci’ya’yansa, kuma duk wanda ya lura da maigidansa za a girmama shi.
19 [When a person looks] in the water, he sees his own face; similarly [SIM], [when we look at] a person’s behavior, we know what he is thinking.
Kamar yadda ruwa kan nuna yadda fuska take, haka zuciyar mutum kan nuna irin mutumin.
20 [It is as though] the place where the dead people are is always wanting more people to [die and] come there; and humans [SYN] are always wanting to acquire more things, [too]. (Sheol h7585)
Mutuwa da Hallaka ba sa ƙoshi, haka idanun mutum ba sa ƙoshi da gani. (Sheol h7585)
21 [Workers put] silver and gold in a very hot furnace [to burn out what is impure], and [SIM] people learn [what we are really like when they see how we react when people] praise us.
Ana gwajin azurfa da kuma zinariya da wuta, amma akan gwada mutum ta wurin yabon da ya samu.
22 Even if you beat/crush a fool severely [like] [MET] you pulverize grain with a pestle, you [probably] will not be able to cause him to stop (being foolish/doing foolish things).
Ko da ka daka wawa a turmi, kana daka shi kamar hatsi da taɓarya, ba za ka fid da wauta daga gare shi ba.
23 Take good care of your flocks of sheep and herds of cattle,
Ka tabbata ka san lafiyar garken tumakinka, ka mai da hankali ga garken shanunka;
24 because the money [that you acquired from selling animals previously] will not (last/stay with you) forever; similarly [SIM], governments [MTY] certainly do not [RHQ] last forever.
domin dukiya ba ta dawwama har abada, ba a kuma kasance da rawani daga tsara zuwa tsara.
25 After you cut the hay [DOU] and [store it to feed the animals in the winter while] a new crop of hay is growing,
Sa’ad da aka yanki ingirci sabon toho kuma ya bayyana aka kuma tattara ciyawa daga tuddai,
26 you will be able to [shear the sheep and] make clothes from the wool, and you will get money from selling [some of] the goats to buy [more] land,
gashin raguna za su tanada maka tufafi, za ka iya sayi gonaki masu kyau da kuɗin awaki.
27 and you will get enough milk from the [other] goats for you and your family and your female servants.
Za ka kasance da madarar awaki mai yawa don ka ciyar da kanka da kuma iyalinka ka kuma inganta bayinka mata.
