Karin Magana 27
1 Kada ka yi fariya a kan gobe gama ba san abin da ranar za tă kawo ba.
Don't boast about what you're going to do tomorrow, because you don't know what the day may bring.
2 Ka bar wani ya yabe ka, ba kai kanka ba; wani dabam, ba leɓunanka ba.
Let others praise you, not you yourself; someone else, not you personally.
3 Dutse yana da nauyi yashi kuma wahala ce, amma tsokanar wawa ta fi su duka nauyi.
Stone may be heavy, and sand may weigh a lot, but the annoyance caused by stupid people is the biggest burden of all.
4 Fushi mugun abu ne mai hallakarwa, amma wa zai iya tsaya a gaban kishi?
Fury may be fierce and cruel, anger may be a destructive flood, but who can withstand jealousy?
5 Gara tsawatawar da ake yi a fili da ƙaunar da ake yi a ɓoye.
Open criticism is better than hidden love.
6 Za a iya amince da rauni daga aboki, amma abokin gāba ko da ya sumbace ka kada ka sake da shi!
A friend's honest comments may hurt you, but an enemy's kisses are over the top.
7 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.
If you're full up, you can't face honey; but if you're starving, even bitter food tastes sweet.
8 Kamar tsuntsun da ya ɓace daga sheƙarsa haka yake da mutumin da ya bar gidansa.
Having to leave home is like a bird having to leave its nest.
9 Man shafawa mai ƙanshi da kuma turare kan faranta zuciya, gaisuwar amini kuma takan fito daga shawarar kirki.
Perfume and scented oils make you feel happy, but good advice from a friend is even better.
10 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.
Don't give up on your friends or your family's friends. Don't go to a relative's house when you've got trouble. A friend nearby is more useful than a relative far away.
11 Ka zama mai hikima, ɗana, ka kuma faranta mini zuciya; zan iya amsa kowace irin suƙar da wani zai yi mini.
My son, make me happy by being wise, so I can respond to anyone who criticizes me.
12 Mai basira kan hango hatsari ya kuma kauce, marar azanci zai yi ta kutsa kai ciki, daga baya ya yi da na sani.
If you're sensible you see danger coming and get out of the way; but stupid people just keep going and suffer the consequences.
13 A karɓe rigunan wanda ya ɗauki lamunin baƙo; a riƙe shi jingina in ya yi shi don mace marar aminci.
If someone guarantees a stranger's debt with their cloak, be sure to take it! Make sure you have whatever is pledged to an immoral woman!
14 In mutum ya albarkaci maƙwabcinsa da murya mai ƙarfi da sassafe, za a ɗauka shi a matsayin la’ana.
If when you get up every morning you shout a loud hello to your neighbors, they will see that as a curse!
15 Mace mai fitina kamar ɗiɗɗigar ruwa take ba ƙaƙƙautawa;
An argumentative wife is as irritating as constant dripping on a rainy day.
16 hana ta yana kamar yin ƙoƙari tsai da iska ne ko yin ƙoƙarin cafke mai a tafin hannunka.
Trying to stop her is like trying to make the wind stop or trying to hold olive oil in your hand.
17 Kamar yadda ƙarfe kan wasa ƙarfe haka mutum kan koyi daga mutum.
An iron blade is sharpened with an iron tool, and one person's mind is sharpened by another's.
18 Duk wanda ya lura da itacen ɓaure, zai ci’ya’yansa, kuma duk wanda ya lura da maigidansa za a girmama shi.
Those who care for a fig tree eat its fruit, and those who care for their master are rewarded.
19 Kamar yadda ruwa kan nuna yadda fuska take, haka zuciyar mutum kan nuna irin mutumin.
Just as water reflects your face, your mind reflects who you really are.
In the same way that the grave and destruction are never satisfied, human desire is never satisfied. (Sheol h7585)
21 Ana gwajin azurfa da kuma zinariya da wuta, amma akan gwada mutum ta wurin yabon da ya samu.
Just as a crucible tests silver, and a furnace tests gold, people are tested by the praise they receive.
22 Ko da ka daka wawa a turmi, kana daka shi kamar hatsi da taɓarya, ba za ka fid da wauta daga gare shi ba.
Even if you ground stupid people in a mortar, crushing them like grain with the pestle, you can't get rid of stupidity from them.
23 Ka tabbata ka san lafiyar garken tumakinka, ka mai da hankali ga garken shanunka;
You should know the condition of your flocks really well and take good care of your herds,
24 domin dukiya ba ta dawwama har abada, ba a kuma kasance da rawani daga tsara zuwa tsara.
for wealth doesn't last forever—is a crown passed down through all generations?
25 Sa’ad da aka yanki ingirci sabon toho kuma ya bayyana aka kuma tattara ciyawa daga tuddai,
Once the hay is cut, and the new growth begins, and fodder from the mountains is gathered,
26 gashin raguna za su tanada maka tufafi, za ka iya sayi gonaki masu kyau da kuɗin awaki.
and the lambs have provided you wool to make clothing, and the sale of goats have paid for a field,
27 Za ka kasance da madarar awaki mai yawa don ka ciyar da kanka da kuma iyalinka ka kuma inganta bayinka mata.
there'll be enough milk from your goats to feed you, your family, and your servant girls.
