Proverbs 31
1 These are sayings/messages that [God gave to] King Lemuel’s mother, and which his mother taught him:
Maganganun Sarki Lemuwel, magana ce horarriya mahaifiyarsa ta koya masa,
2 You are my son; I gave birth to you [RHQ]; you are the son that [God gave me] in answer to my prayers.
“Ka saurara, ya ɗana! Ka saurara, ɗan cikina! Ka saurara, ya ɗan amshin addu’ata!
3 Do not exhaust your energy [having sex] [EUP] with women [to whom you are not married], with women who ruin kings [by having sex with them].
Kada ka ba da ƙarfinka a kan mata, ƙarfinka ga waɗanda suka hallaka sarakuna.
4 Lemuel, kings should not be [constantly] drinking wine or [greatly] desire [to drink other] strong/alcoholic drinks.
“Ba na sarakuna ba ne, ya Lemuwel, ba na sarakuna ba ne su sha ruwan inabi, ba na masu mulki ba ne su yi marmarin barasa,
5 If they do that, they forget the laws [that they have made], and they do not do what is right for poor/afflicted [people].
don kada su sha su manta da abin da doka ta umarta, su hana wa waɗanda aka danne hakkinsu.
6 Give strong/alcoholic drinks to those who are dying and to those who are (greatly distressed/suffering very much).
A ba da barasa ga waɗanda suke cikin halin ƙaƙa naka yi, ruwan inabi ga waɗanda suke cikin wahala;
7 If they drink, they will forget that they are poor, and they will not think about their distress/troubles any more.
bari su sha su manta da talaucinsu kada kuma su ƙara tunawa da ɓacin ransu.
8 Speak [MTY] to defend people who are unable to defend themselves; speak to encourage others to do what is right for those who are helpless.
“Yi magana domin bebaye, domin hakkin dukan waɗanda suke naƙasassu.
9 Speak [MTY] (on their behalf/to help them) and try to cause judges to decide matters fairly/justly; try to cause others to do for poor and needy [people] what should be done for them.
Yi magana a kuma yi shari’ar adalci; a tsare hakkin talakawa da masu bukata.”
10 It is very difficult [for a man] to [RHQ] find a wife who is good and who is capable [of doing many things]. [Any woman who is like that] is worth more than jewels.
Wa yake iya samun mace mai halin kirki? Darajarta ta fi ta lu’ulu’ai.
11 Her husband completely trusts her, and [because of her], he has everything that he needs [LIT].
Mijinta yana da cikakken amincewa da ita kuma ba ya rasa wani abu mai daraja.
12 She never does anything that would harm him; she does good things for him all the days of her life.
Takan yi masa alheri ba mugunta ba, dukan kwanakin ranta.
13 She finds wool and flax [in the market], and she enjoys spinning it [to make yarn].
Takan zaɓi ulu da lilin ta yi ta saƙa da hannuwanta da farin ciki.
14 She is like [SIM] a ship that brings from far away goods/merchandise to sell, [because] she buys food that comes from far away.
Ita kamar jirgin’yan kasuwa ne tana kawo abincinta daga nesa.
15 She gets up before dawn to prepare food for her family. [Then] she plans the work that her servant girls will do on that day.
Takan farka tun da sauran duhu; ta tanada wa iyalinta abinci ta kuma shirya wa’yan matan gidanta ayyukan da za su yi.
16 She [goes out and] looks at a field [that someone wants to sell]; and [if it is a good field], she buys it. She [buys] grapevines [MTY] with the money that she has earned, [and then] she plants them.
Takan lura da gona sosai ta kuma saye ta; daga abin da take samu na kuɗin shiga take shuka gonar inabi.
17 She works very hard [IDM]; she makes her arms strong [by the work she does].
Takan himmantu tă yi aikinta tuƙuru; hannuwanta suna da ƙarfi domin ayyukanta.
18 She knows when she is getting a good profit from her business. [When it is necessary], she works [MTY] until it is late at night.
Takan tabbata akwai riba a kasuwancinta, kuma fitilarta ba ya mutuwa da dare.
19 She holds the (spindle/rod which twists the thread that she is making), and [then] she spins the thread [MTY] [that she will use].
Da hannunta take riƙe abin kaɗi ta kuma kama abin saƙa da yatsotsinta.
20 She generously helps [MTY] those who are poor and needy [DOU].
Takan marabci talakawa takan kuma taimaki masu bukata.
21 She is not worried that [the people in her house will be cold in] the winter, because [she has made] warm clothes for all of them.
Sa’ad da ƙanƙara ta fāɗi, ba ta jin tsoro saboda gidanta; gama dukansu suna da tufafi masu kauri.
22 She makes bedspreads/quilts for the beds. She wears fine linen clothes that are dyed purple, [like queens wear].
Takan yi wa gadonta kayan shimfiɗa; tufafinta kuma na lilin ne mai laushi na shunayya.
23 Her husband is [well] known by the important people of the town; he sits with the [other] town leaders in the meetings of the town council.
Ana girmama mijinta a ƙofar shiga birni inda yakan zauna a cikin dattawan gari.
24 She makes clothes from linen cloth and sells them. She sells sashes to shop owners.
Takan yi riguna na lilin ta sayar; takan kuma sayar wa’yan kasuwa da ɗamara.
25 She is strong in her character and respected/dignified, and she (laughs at/is not afraid of) [what will happen in] the future.
Ƙarfi da mutunci su ne suturarta; za tă iya yin dariyar kwanaki masu zuwa.
26 When she speaks, she says what is wise. When she gives instructions, she speaks [MTY] kindly (OR, faithfully).
Tana magana da hikima, kuma umarnai mai aminci yana a harshenta.
27 She watches over everything that is done in her household, and she [IDM] is never lazy.
Tana lura da sha’anin gidanta kuma ba ta cin abincin ƙyuya.
28 Her children all together speak highly of her, and her husband also praises her.
’Ya’yanta sukan tashi su ce da ita mai albarka; haka mijinta ma, yakan kuma yabe ta yana cewa,
29 [He says to her], “There are many women who do admirable things, but you surpass them all!”
“Mata da yawa suna yin abubuwan yabo, amma ke kin fi su duka.”
30 Some women who are attractive [are not really good women], [but] they can deceive us [regarding what they are really like]. Furthermore, women’s beauty does not last; but women who revere Yahweh should be honored.
Kayan tsari yana ruɗu, kyau kuma kan shuɗe; amma mace mai tsoron Ubangiji abar yabo ce.
31 Reward women who are like that, and praise them in public [MTY] for what they have done.
Ka ba ta ladar da ya dace tă samo wa kanta, bari kuma ayyukanta su kawo mata yabo a ƙofar shiga birni.
