Karin Magana 27
1 Kada ka yi fariya a kan gobe gama ba san abin da ranar za tă kawo ba.
Do not boast thyself of to-morrow, for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.
2 Ka bar wani ya yabe ka, ba kai kanka ba; wani dabam, ba leɓunanka ba.
Let another praise thee, and not thine own mouth, a stranger, and not thine own lips.
3 Dutse yana da nauyi yashi kuma wahala ce, amma tsokanar wawa ta fi su duka nauyi.
Heavy is a stone, and weighty is sand, —but, the vexation of a fool, is heavier than both.
4 Fushi mugun abu ne mai hallakarwa, amma wa zai iya tsaya a gaban kishi?
The cruelty of rage, and the overflow of anger! But who can stand before, jealousy?
5 Gara tsawatawar da ake yi a fili da ƙaunar da ake yi a ɓoye.
Better is a rebuke that is open, than love carefully concealed.
6 Za a iya amince da rauni daga aboki, amma abokin gāba ko da ya sumbace ka kada ka sake da shi!
Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but lavished are the kisses of an enemy.
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.
The surfeited soul, trampleth upon droppings from the comb, but, to the hungry soul, every bitter thing, is sweet.
8 Kamar tsuntsun da ya ɓace daga sheƙarsa haka yake da mutumin da ya bar gidansa.
As a bird wandering from her nest, so, is a man wandering from his place.
9 Man shafawa mai ƙanshi da kuma turare kan faranta zuciya, gaisuwar amini kuma takan fito daga shawarar kirki.
Oil and perfume, rejoice the heart, the sweetness of one’s friend, more than fragrant wood.
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.
Thine own friend and thy father’s friend, do not thou forsake; but, the house of thy brother, do not enter, in thy day of calamity, Better a neighbour near, than a brother far off.
11 Ka zama mai hikima, ɗana, ka kuma faranta mini zuciya; zan iya amsa kowace irin suƙar da wani zai yi mini.
Be wise, my son, and rejoice my heart, that I may answer him that reproacheth me in a matter.
12 Mai basira kan hango hatsari ya kuma kauce, marar azanci zai yi ta kutsa kai ciki, daga baya ya yi da na sani.
A prudent man, seeth calamity—he hideth himself, the simple, pass on—they suffer.
13 A karɓe rigunan wanda ya ɗauki lamunin baƙo; a riƙe shi jingina in ya yi shi don mace marar aminci.
Take a man’s garment when he hath become pledge for a stranger, then, for a female unknown, accept him as surety.
14 In mutum ya albarkaci maƙwabcinsa da murya mai ƙarfi da sassafe, za a ɗauka shi a matsayin la’ana.
He that blesseth his friend, with a loud voice, in the morning early, a reproach, shall it be reckoned to him.
15 Mace mai fitina kamar ɗiɗɗigar ruwa take ba ƙaƙƙautawa;
A continuous dripping on a day of downpour, and a contentious wife, are alike:
16 hana ta yana kamar yin ƙoƙari tsai da iska ne ko yin ƙoƙarin cafke mai a tafin hannunka.
He that hideth her, hideth the wind, and, perfume, his right hand may proclaim.
17 Kamar yadda ƙarfe kan wasa ƙarfe haka mutum kan koyi daga mutum.
Let, iron, by iron, become sharp, and let, a man, sharpen the face of his friend.
18 Duk wanda ya lura da itacen ɓaure, zai ci’ya’yansa, kuma duk wanda ya lura da maigidansa za a girmama shi.
He that guardeth the fig-tree, shall eat the fruit thereof, and, he that watcheth over his master, shall be honoured.
19 Kamar yadda ruwa kan nuna yadda fuska take, haka zuciyar mutum kan nuna irin mutumin.
As in water, face [answereth] to face, so, the heart of man to man.
Hades and destruction, are not satisfied, and, the eyes of a man, are not satisfied. (Sheol h7585)
21 Ana gwajin azurfa da kuma zinariya da wuta, amma akan gwada mutum ta wurin yabon da ya samu.
Fining pot for silver, and crucible for gold, and, a man, [is to be tried] by what he praiseth.
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.
Though thou pound a fool in a mortar, amidst grain, with a pestle, his folly, will not depart from him.
23 Ka tabbata ka san lafiyar garken tumakinka, ka mai da hankali ga garken shanunka;
Note well, the appearance of thy flock, apply thy mind to thy herds;
24 domin dukiya ba ta dawwama har abada, ba a kuma kasance da rawani daga tsara zuwa tsara.
For, not age-abiding, are riches, nor is the diadem, from generation to generation: —
25 Sa’ad da aka yanki ingirci sabon toho kuma ya bayyana aka kuma tattara ciyawa daga tuddai,
The grass, is taken away, and the young shoot, showeth itself, and the herbage of the mountains, is gathered;
26 gashin raguna za su tanada maka tufafi, za ka iya sayi gonaki masu kyau da kuɗin awaki.
There are, lambs, for thy clothing, and, for the price of thy field, there are he-goats;
27 Za ka kasance da madarar awaki mai yawa don ka ciyar da kanka da kuma iyalinka ka kuma inganta bayinka mata.
With, enough goats-milk, for thy food—for the food of thy household, and, a maintenance, for thy maidens.
