< Wacdiyahii 11 >
1 Kibistaada biyaha korkooda ku tuur, waayo, maalmo badan dabadood waad heli doontaa.
Cast thy bread upon the running waters: for after a long time thou shalt find it again.
2 Oo toddoba qaybood u kala qaybi iyo weliba siddeed, waayo, masiibada dhulka iman doonta garan maysid.
Give a portion to seven, and also to eight: for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth.
3 Haddii daruuruhu roob ka buuxsamaan, dhulkay ku soo daataan, oo haddii geed xagga koonfureed amase xagga woqooyi u dhaco, meeshuu u dhacay ayuu oolli doonaa.
If the clouds be full, they will pour out rain upon the earth. If the tree fall to the south, or to the north, in what place soever it shall fall, there shall it be.
4 Kii dabaysha eegaa waxba ma uu beeran doono, oo kii daruuraha fiiriyaana waxba ma goosan doono.
He that observeth the wind, shall not sow: and he that considereth the clouds, shall never reap.
5 Sida aadan dabaysha jidkeeda u garanayn, ama aadan sida lafuhu ugu dhex samaysmaan naag uur leh maxalkeed u garanayn, saas oo kale ayaadan shuqulka Ilaaha wax walba sameeya u garanayn.
As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones are joined together in the womb of her that is with child: so thou knowest not the works of God, who is the maker of all.
6 Iniinahaaga aroorta beero, oo fiidkana gacantaada ha ceshan, waayo, innaba garan maysid mid liibaani doona, kan ama kaas, iyo inay labadooduba isku si u wanaagsanaan doonaan iyo in kale.
In the morning sow thy seed, and In the evening let not thy hand cease: for thou knowest not which may rather spring up, this or that: and if both together, it shall be the better.
7 Sida runta ah iftiinku waa macaan yahay, oo indhahana way u wanaagsan tahay inay qorraxda arkaan.
The light is sweet, and it is delightful for the eyes to see the sun.
8 Haddii nin sannado badan noolaado, kulligood ha ku farxo, laakiinse ha xusuusto maalmaha gudcurka, waayo, iyagu way badnaan doonaan. Waxa imanaya oo dhammu waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
If a man live many years, and have rejoiced in them all, he must remember the darksome time, and the many days: which when they shall come, the things past shall be accused of vanity.
9 Barbaarkow, barbaarnimadaada ku farax, oo wakhtiga dhallinyaranimadaadana qalbigaagu ha ku istareexiyo, oo sida qalbigaagu doonayo oo ay indhahaagu arkaanba u soco, laakiinse waxaad ogaataa in Ilaah waxyaalahaas aawadood oo dhan kuu xukumi doono.
Rejoice therefore, O young man, in thy youth, and let thy heart be in that which is good in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thy eyes: and know that for all these God will bring thee into judgment.
10 Haddaba sidaa daraaddeed qalbigaaga murugta ka durki, oo jidhkaagana xumaanta ka fogee, waayo, carruurnimada iyo dhallinyaranimaduba waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
Remove anger from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh. For youth and pleasure are vain.
