Karin Magana 31
1 Maganganun Sarki Lemuwel, magana ce horarriya mahaifiyarsa ta koya masa,
The words of king Lemuel; the oracle which his mother taught him.
2 “Ka saurara, ya ɗana! Ka saurara, ɗan cikina! Ka saurara, ya ɗan amshin addu’ata!
What, my son? and what, O son of my womb, and what, O son of my vows?
3 Kada ka ba da ƙarfinka a kan mata, ƙarfinka ga waɗanda suka hallaka sarakuna.
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
4 “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,
It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes [to say], Where is strong drink?
5 don kada su sha su manta da abin da doka ta umarta, su hana wa waɗanda aka danne hakkinsu.
Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any that is afflicted.
6 A ba da barasa ga waɗanda suke cikin halin ƙaƙa naka yi, ruwan inabi ga waɗanda suke cikin wahala;
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto the bitter in soul:
7 bari su sha su manta da talaucinsu kada kuma su ƙara tunawa da ɓacin ransu.
Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
8 “Yi magana domin bebaye, domin hakkin dukan waɗanda suke naƙasassu.
Open thy mouth for the dumb, in the cause of all such as are left desolate.
9 Yi magana a kuma yi shari’ar adalci; a tsare hakkin talakawa da masu bukata.”
Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and minister judgment to the poor and needy.
10 Wa yake iya samun mace mai halin kirki? Darajarta ta fi ta lu’ulu’ai.
A virtuous woman who can find? for her price is far above rubies.
11 Mijinta yana da cikakken amincewa da ita kuma ba ya rasa wani abu mai daraja.
The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no lack of gain.
12 Takan yi masa alheri ba mugunta ba, dukan kwanakin ranta.
She doeth him good and not evil all the days of her life.
13 Takan zaɓi ulu da lilin ta yi ta saƙa da hannuwanta da farin ciki.
She seeketh wool and flax, and worketh willingly with her hands.
14 Ita kamar jirgin’yan kasuwa ne tana kawo abincinta daga nesa.
She is like the merchant-ships; she bringeth her food from afar.
15 Takan farka tun da sauran duhu; ta tanada wa iyalinta abinci ta kuma shirya wa’yan matan gidanta ayyukan da za su yi.
She riseth also while it is yet night, and giveth meat to her household, and their task to her maidens.
16 Takan lura da gona sosai ta kuma saye ta; daga abin da take samu na kuɗin shiga take shuka gonar inabi.
She considereth a field, and buyeth it: with the fruit of her hands she planteth a vineyard.
17 Takan himmantu tă yi aikinta tuƙuru; hannuwanta suna da ƙarfi domin ayyukanta.
She girdeth her loins with strength, and maketh strong her arms.
18 Takan tabbata akwai riba a kasuwancinta, kuma fitilarta ba ya mutuwa da dare.
She perceiveth that her merchandise is profitable: her lamp goeth not out by night.
19 Da hannunta take riƙe abin kaɗi ta kuma kama abin saƙa da yatsotsinta.
She layeth her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle.
20 Takan marabci talakawa takan kuma taimaki masu bukata.
She spreadeth out her hand to the poor; yea, she reacheth forth her hands to the needy.
21 Sa’ad da ƙanƙara ta fāɗi, ba ta jin tsoro saboda gidanta; gama dukansu suna da tufafi masu kauri.
She is not afraid of the snow for her household; for all her household are clothed with scarlet.
22 Takan yi wa gadonta kayan shimfiɗa; tufafinta kuma na lilin ne mai laushi na shunayya.
She maketh for herself carpets of tapestry; her clothing is fine linen and purple.
23 Ana girmama mijinta a ƙofar shiga birni inda yakan zauna a cikin dattawan gari.
Her husband is known in the gates, when he sitteth among the elders of the land.
24 Takan yi riguna na lilin ta sayar; takan kuma sayar wa’yan kasuwa da ɗamara.
She maketh linen garments and selleth them; and delivereth girdles unto the merchant.
25 Ƙarfi da mutunci su ne suturarta; za tă iya yin dariyar kwanaki masu zuwa.
Strength and dignity are her clothing; and she laugheth at the time to come.
26 Tana magana da hikima, kuma umarnai mai aminci yana a harshenta.
She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and the law of kindness is on her tongue.
27 Tana lura da sha’anin gidanta kuma ba ta cin abincin ƙyuya.
She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
28 ’Ya’yanta sukan tashi su ce da ita mai albarka; haka mijinta ma, yakan kuma yabe ta yana cewa,
Her children rise up, and call her blessed; her husband [also], and he praiseth her, [saying]:
29 “Mata da yawa suna yin abubuwan yabo, amma ke kin fi su duka.”
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
30 Kayan tsari yana ruɗu, kyau kuma kan shuɗe; amma mace mai tsoron Ubangiji abar yabo ce.
Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: [but] a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
31 Ka ba ta ladar da ya dace tă samo wa kanta, bari kuma ayyukanta su kawo mata yabo a ƙofar shiga birni.
Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her works praise her in the gates.
