Wacdiyahii 11
1 Kibistaada biyaha korkooda ku tuur, waayo, maalmo badan dabadood waad heli doontaa.
Cast thy bread upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days.
2 Oo toddoba qaybood u kala qaybi iyo weliba siddeed, waayo, masiibada dhulka iman doonta garan maysid.
Divide a portion into seven, yea, even into 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 of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth; and if a tree fall in the south, or in the north, in the place where the tree falleth, 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 regardeth the clouds shall not 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 wind, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child; even so thou knowest not the work of God who doeth all things.
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 withhold not thy hand; for thou knowest not which shall prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good.
7 Sida runta ah iftiinku waa macaan yahay, oo indhahana way u wanaagsan tahay inay qorraxda arkaan.
And the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing it is for the eyes to behold 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.
For if a man live many years, let him rejoice in them all, and remember the days of darkness, for they shall be many. All that cometh is 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, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thy heart, and in the sight of thine eyes; but know thou, that for all these things 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.
Therefore remove vexation from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh; for childhood and youth are vanity.
