Proverbs 14
1 Every wise woman hath builded her house, And the foolish with her hands breaketh it down.
Naag kastoo caqli lahu gurigeeday dhistaa, Laakiinse nacasaddu gacmaheeday ku dumisaa.
2 Whoso is walking in his uprightness is fearing Jehovah, And the perverted [in] his ways is despising Him.
Kii qummanaantiisa ku socda ayaa Rabbiga ka cabsada, Laakiinse kii jidkiisa ku qalloocan wuu quudhsadaa isaga.
3 In the mouth of a fool [is] a rod of pride, And the lips of the wise preserve them.
Afka nacasyada waxaa ka soo biqla kibir; Laakiinse kuwa caqliga leh bushimahooda ayaa iyaga dhawri doona.
4 Without oxen a stall [is] clean, And great [is] the increase by the power of the ox.
Meeshii aan dibi joogin qabaalkii ay wax ka cuni jireen waa baabbah; Laakiinse kordhinta badanu waxay ku timaadaa xoogga dibiga.
5 A faithful witness lieth not, And a false witness breatheth out lies.
Markhaatigii aamin ahu been ma sheego, Laakiinse markhaatigii been ahu been buu ku hadlaa.
6 A scorner hath sought wisdom, and it is not, And knowledge to the intelligent [is] easy.
Kii wax quudhsadaa xigmad buu doondoonaa, mana helo, Laakiinse aqoontu waa u fudud dahay kii waxgarasho leh.
7 Go from before a foolish man, Or thou hast not known the lips of knowledge.
Nacaska hortiisa ka fogow, Waayo, bushimihiisa aqoon ka heli maysid.
8 The wisdom of the prudent [is] to understand his way, And the folly of fools [is] deceit.
Ninkii miyir leh xigmaddiisu waa inuu jidkiisa gartaa, Laakiinse nacasyada nacasnimadoodu waa khiyaano.
9 Fools mock at a guilt-offering, And among the upright — a pleasing thing.
Nacasyadu dembigay ku majaajiloodaan, Laakiinse kuwa qumman waxaa ku dhex jirta raallinimo.
10 The heart knoweth its own bitterness, And with its joy a stranger doth not intermeddle.
Qalbigu qadhaadhnimadiisuu yaqaan, Oo shisheeyena farxaddiisa lama qaybsado.
11 The house of the wicked is destroyed, And the tent of the upright flourisheth.
Guriga kuwa sharka leh waa la afgembiyi doonaa, Laakiinse taambuugga kuwa qummanu waa barwaaqoobi doonaa.
12 There is a way — right before a man, And its latter end [are] ways of death.
Waxaa jirta waddo dadka la hagaagsan, Laakiinse dhammaadkeedu waa waddooyinka dhimashada.
13 Even in laughter is the heart pained, And the latter end of joy [is] affliction.
Qalbigu xataa qosol waa ku murugoodaa, Oo farxad dhammaadkeeduna waa caloolxumo.
14 From his ways is the backslider in heart filled, And a good man — from his fruits.
Kii xaqnimada qalbigiisa dib ugaga noqdaa jidkiisuu ka dhergi doonaa, Oo ninkii wanaagsanuna wuxuu ka dhergi doonaa naftiisa.
15 The simple giveth credence to everything, And the prudent attendeth to his step.
Kii garaaddaranu eray kasta wuu rumaystaa, Laakiinse kii miyir lahu socodkiisa aad buu u fiiriyaa.
16 The wise is fearing and turning from evil, And a fool is transgressing and is confident.
Ninkii caqli lahu waa cabsadaa, oo sharka wuu ka noqdaa; Laakiinse nacasku waa ciishoodaa, wuuna isku kalsoon yahay.
17 Whoso is short of temper doth folly, And a man of wicked devices is hated.
Kii degdeg u cadhoodaa nacasnimuu wax ku sameeyaa, Oo ninkii sharnimo hindisana waa la neceb yahay.
18 The simple have inherited folly, And the prudent are crowned [with] knowledge.
Garaadlaawayaashu nacasnimay dhaxlaan, Laakiinse kuwii miyir leh waxaa madaxa loo saaraa taaj aqoon ah.
19 The evil have bowed down before the good, And the wicked at the gates of the righteous.
Kuwa sharka lahu kuwa wanaagsan hortooda ayay ku foororsadaan, Oo kuwa xunxunna waxay ku foororsadaan irdaha kuwa xaqa ah.
20 Even of his neighbour is the poor hated, And those loving the rich [are] many.
Miskiinka xataa deriskiisu waa neceb yahay, Laakiinse taajirku saaxiibbo badan buu leeyahay.
21 Whoso is despising his neighbour sinneth, Whoso is favouring the humble, O his happiness.
Kii deriskiisa quudhsadaa wuu dembaabaa, Laakiinse kii miskiinka u naxariistaa waa barakaysan yahay.
22 Do not they err who are devising evil? And kindness and truth [are] to those devising good,
Kuwa sharka ku fikiraa sow ma qaldamaan? Laakiinse kuwa wanaagga ku fikira waxaa u ahaan doona naxariis iyo run.
23 In all labour there is advantage, And a thing of the lips [is] only to want.
Hawl kasta faa'iidaa ku jirta, Laakiinse hadalka bushimuhu wuxuu keenaa caydhnimo keliya.
24 The crown of the wise is their wealth, The folly of fools [is] folly.
Kuwa caqliga leh taajkoodu waa maalkooda, Laakiinse nacasyada nacasnimadoodu waa nacasnimo keliya.
25 A true witness is delivering souls, And a deceitful one breatheth out lies.
Markhaatigii run ahu nafuu samatabbixiyaa, Laakiinse kii been sheegaa waa khaayin.
26 In the fear of Jehovah [is] strong confidence, And to His sons there is a refuge.
Rabbiga ka cabsashadiisu waxay leedahay kalsoonaan xoog leh, Oo carruurtiisuna waxay lahaan doonaan meel ay magangalaan.
27 The fear of Jehovah [is] a fountain of life, To turn aside from snares of death.
Rabbiga ka cabsashadiisu waa il nololeed, Si dabinnada dhimashada looga leexdo.
28 In the multitude of a people [is] the honour of a king, And in lack of people the ruin of a prince.
Sharafta boqorku waxay ku jirtaa dadka badnaantiisa, Laakiinse baabba'a amiirku wuxuu ku jiraa dadka yaraantiisa.
29 Whoso is slow to anger [is] of great understanding, And whoso is short in temper is exalting folly.
Kii cadhada u gaabiyaa waa garasho badan yahay; Laakiinse kii degdeg u cadhoodaa nacasnimuu sarraysiiyaa.
30 A healed heart [is] life to the flesh, And rottenness to the bones [is] envy.
Qalbigii degganu waa nolosha jidhka, Laakiinse hinaaso waa qudhunka lafaha.
31 An oppressor of the poor reproacheth his Maker, And whoso is honouring Him Is favouring the needy.
Kii miskiinka dulmaa wuxuu caayaa Kan sameeyey, Laakiinse kii ka baahan u naxariistaa wuu murweeyaa.
32 In his wickedness is the wicked driven away, And trustful in his death [is] the righteous.
Kii shar leh waxaa lagu afgembiyaa sharnimadiisa, Laakiinse kan xaqa ahu rajuu leeyahay markuu dhinto.
33 In the heart of the intelligent wisdom doth rest. And in the midst of fools it is known.
Xigmaddu waxay taal kii garasho leh qalbigiisa, Laakiinse wixii nacasyada uurkooda ku jiraa waa ismuujiyaa.
34 Righteousness exalteth a nation, And the goodliness of peoples [is] a sin-offering.
Xaqnimadu quruun way sarraysiisaa, Laakiinse dembigu waa u ceeb dad kasta.
35 The favour of a king [is] to a wise servant, And an object of his wrath is one causing shame!
Boqorka raallinimadiisa waxaa leh midiidinkii caqli ku shaqeeya, Laakiinse wuxuu u cadhoon doonaa kii ceeb sameeya.
