Wacdiyahii 2
1 Waxaan qalbiga iska idhi, Bal kaalay, waxaan kugu tijaabin doonaa farxad, haddaba bal iska raaxayso, oo bal eeg, taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayne.
I said in my heart, “Come now, I will test you with happiness. So enjoy pleasure.” But look, this also was just a temporary breeze.
2 Qosol waxaan ka idhi, Waa waalli! Farxadna waxaan ka idhi, Bal maxay taraysaa?
I said about laughter, “It is crazy,” and about pleasure, “What use is it?”
3 Waxaan qalbigayga ka damcay inaan jidhkayga khamri ku istareexiyo intii qalbigaygu xigmad igu hoggaaminayo, iyo inaan nacasnimo xagsado jeeraan arko waxa binu-aadmiga ku wanaagsan inay cimrigooda oo dhan samada hoosteeda ku sameeyaan.
I explored in my heart how to gratify my desires with wine. I let my mind guide me with wisdom although I was still holding on to folly. I wanted to find out what is good for people to do under heaven during the days of their lives.
4 Waxaan samaystay shuqullo waaweyn, guryana waan dhistay, beero canab ahna waan beertay.
I accomplished great things. I built houses for myself and planted vineyards.
5 Waxaan samaystay beero iyo firdows, oo waxaan ku dhex beeray geed midho cayn kastaba leh.
I built for myself gardens and parks; I planted all kinds of fruit trees in them.
6 Waxaan samaystay balliyo biya ah oo laga waraabiyo kaynta dhirtu ka baxdo.
I created pools of water to water a forest where trees were grown.
7 Waxaan soo iibsaday addoommo rag iyo dumarba ah, oo waxaan lahaa addoommo gurigayga ku dhashay, weliba waxaan lahaa hanti aad u badan oo ishkin iyo adhiba leh, oo waan ka sii hodansanaa kuwii Yeruusaalem iiga horreeyey oo dhan.
I purchased male slaves and female slaves; I had slaves born in my palace. I also had large herds and flocks of livestock, much more than any king who ruled before me in Jerusalem.
8 Oo weliba waxaan kaloo soo urursaday lacag, iyo dahab, iyo khasnado khaas ah oo ay boqorro iyo gobollo leeyihiin. Oo waxaan yeeshay niman ii gabya iyo naago ii gabya, iyo waxyaalaha ay binu-aadmigu ku farxaan iyo dumar badan.
I also accumulated for myself silver and gold, the treasures of kings and provinces. I got male and female singers for myself—the delights of the children of humanity—and many concubines.
9 Sidaasaan u weynaa oo uga maal badnaa kuwii Yeruusaalem iiga horreeyey oo dhan, oo weliba xigmaddaydiina way igu hadhay.
So I became greater and wealthier than all who were before me in Jerusalem, and my wisdom remained with me.
10 Oo wax kasta oo indhahaygu jeclaysteenna kama aan celin, oo qalbigaygana kama aan joojin farxad cayn kastoo ay tahayba, waayo, qalbigaygu wuu ku reyreeyey hawshaydii oo dhan, oo taasuna waxay ahayd qaybtii aan hawshaydii oo dhan ka helay.
Whatever my eyes desired, I did not withhold from them. I did not withhold my heart from any pleasure, because my heart rejoiced in all my labor and pleasure was my reward for all my work.
11 Markaasaan fiiriyey shuqulladii ay gacmahaygu sameeyeen oo dhan, iyo hawshii aan ku hawshooday oo dhan, oo bal eeg, dhammaantood waxay ahaayeen wax aan waxba tarayn iyo dabagalka dabaysha oo kale, oo innaba faa'iido laguma arag inta qorraxda ka hoosaysa.
Then I looked on all the deeds that my hands had accomplished, and on the work that I had done, but again, everything was vapor and an attempt to shepherd the wind. There was no profit under the sun in it.
12 Markaasaan u soo jeestay inaan xigmad iyo waalli iyo nacasnimoba fiiriyo, waayo, ninka boqorka ka dambeeya bal muxuu samayn karaa wixii hore loo sameeyey mooyaane?
Then I turned to consider wisdom, and also madness and folly. For what can the next king do who comes after the king, which has not already been done?
13 Markaasaan gartay in xigmaddu ay ka sii fiican tahay nacasnimada, sida iftiinku uu gudcurka uga fiican yahay oo kale.
Then I began to understand that wisdom has advantages over folly, just as light is better than darkness.
14 Ninkii xigmadda leh indhihiisu madaxiisay ku yaallaan, oo nacasku gudcur buu ku dhex socdaa, laakiinse waxaan gartay inuu isku wax dhammaantood ku dhoco.
The wise man uses his eyes in his head to see where he is going, but the fool walks in darkness, although I know the same event happens to all of them.
15 Oo haddana waxaan qalbigayga iska idhi, Wixii nacaska ku dhaca anigana way igu dhici doonaan, haddaba bal maxaan uga xigmad badnaaday? Markaasaan qalbigayga iska idhi, Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
Then I said in my heart, “What happens to the fool, will also happen to me. So what difference does it make if I am very wise?” I concluded in my heart, “This too is only vapor.”
16 Waayo, kan xigmadda leh lama xusuusto ilaa weligiis xataa sida aan nacaska loo xusuusan, maxaa yeelay, wakhtiga soo socda waxa haatan jooga oo dhan waa la wada illoobi doonaa. Oo bal kan xigmadda lahu wuxuu u dhintaa sida nacaska oo kale!
For the wise man, like the fool, is not remembered for very long. In the days to come everything will have been long forgotten. The wise man dies just like the fool dies.
17 Sidaas daraaddeed nolosha waan nacay, maxaa yeelay, shuqulka qorraxda hoosteeda lagu sameeyo oo dhammu dhib buu ii ahaa, waayo, kulli waa wax aan waxba tarayn iyo dabagalka dabaysha.
So I detested life because all the work done under the sun was evil to me. This was because everything is vapor and an attempt to shepherd the wind.
18 Wixii aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshooday oo dhan waan nacay, maxaa yeelay, waa inaan uga tago ninka iga dambeeya.
I hated all my accomplishments for which I had worked under the sun because I must leave them behind to the man who comes after me.
19 Bal yaase yaqaan inuu ahaan doono nin xigmad leh amase nacas? Kolleyse isagaa u talin doona hawshaydii aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshooday oo aan xigmad ku muujiyey oo dhan. Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
For who knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool? Yet he will be master over everything under the sun that my work and wisdom have built. This also is vapor.
20 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ayaan uga qalbi jabay wixii aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshooday oo dhan.
Therefore my heart began to despair over all the work under the sun that I did.
21 Waayo, waxaa jira nin hawshiisa xigmad, iyo aqoon, iyo guul ku sameeya, oo haddana uga taga nin aan ku hawshoon. Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn iyo xaqdarro.
For there might be someone who works with wisdom, with knowledge, and skill, but he will leave everything he has to a man who has not made any of it. This also is vapor and a great tragedy.
22 Bal maxaa nin ka helaa hawshiisa uu qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshoodo oo dhan iyo dabagalka qalbigiisaba?
For what profit does the person gain who works so hard and tries in his heart to complete his labors under the sun?
23 Waayo, maalmihiisa oo dhammu waa u murug, dhibaatadiisuna waa u tiiraanyo, oo xataa habeenkii qalbigiisu ma nasto. Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
Every day his work is painful and stressful, so at night his soul does not find rest. This also is vapor.
24 Nin inuu wax cuno oo wax cabbo oo uu hawshiisa si wanaagsan ugu raaxaysto wax uga roon lama arko, oo taasna waxaan arkay inay tahay wax gacanta Ilaah ka yimid.
There is nothing better for anyone than to simply eat and drink and be satisfied with what is good in his work. I saw that this truth comes from God's hand.
25 Waayo, bal yaa wax cuni kara, yaase raaxaysan kara in iga badan?
For who can eat or who can have any kind of pleasure apart from God?
26 Waayo, qofkii Ilaah ka farxiyo wuxuu siiyaa xigmad iyo aqoon iyo farxad, laakiinse dembilaha wuxuu siiyaa dhib inuu wax u ururiyo oo uu taallaysto si uu u siiyo kan Ilaah ka farxiya. Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn iyo dabagalka dabaysha oo kale.
For to anyone who pleases him, God gives wisdom and knowledge and joy. However, to the sinner he gives the work of gathering and storing up so that he may give it away to someone who pleases God. This also amounts to vapor and an attempt to shepherd the wind.
