< 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 prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and behold, this also [is] vanity.
2 Qosol waxaan ka idhi, Waa waalli! Farxadna waxaan ka idhi, Bal maxay taraysaa?
I said of laughter, [It is] mad: and of mirth, What doeth 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 sought in my heart, to give myself to wine, yet acquainting my heart with wisdom; and to lay hold on folly, till I might see what [was] that good for the sons of men, which they should do under the heaven all the days of their life.
4 Waxaan samaystay shuqullo waaweyn, guryana waan dhistay, beero canab ahna waan beertay.
I made me great works; I built me houses; I planted me vineyards:
5 Waxaan samaystay beero iyo firdows, oo waxaan ku dhex beeray geed midho cayn kastaba leh.
I made me gardens and orchards, and I planted trees in them of all [kind of] fruits:
6 Waxaan samaystay balliyo biya ah oo laga waraabiyo kaynta dhirtu ka baxdo.
I made me pools of water, to water with them the wood that bringeth forth trees:
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 procured [me] servants and maidens, and had servants born in my house; also I had great possessions of great and small cattle above all that were in Jerusalem before me:
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 gathered me also silver and gold, and the peculiar treasure of kings, and of the provinces: I procured me men-singers and women-singers, and the delights of the sons of men, [as] musical instruments, and of all sorts.
9 Sidaasaan u weynaa oo uga maal badnaa kuwii Yeruusaalem iiga horreeyey oo dhan, oo weliba xigmaddaydiina way igu hadhay.
So I was great, and increased more than all that were before me in Jerusalem: also 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.
And whatever my eyes desired I kept not from them, I withheld not my heart from any joy; for my heart rejoiced in all my labor: and this was my portion of all my labor.
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 works that my hands had wrought, and on the labor that I had labored to do: and behold, all [was] vanity and vexation of spirit, and [there was] no profit under the sun.
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?
And I turned myself to behold wisdom, and madness, and folly: for what [can] the man [do] that cometh after the king? [even] that which hath been already done.
13 Markaasaan gartay in xigmaddu ay ka sii fiican tahay nacasnimada, sida iftiinku uu gudcurka uga fiican yahay oo kale.
Then I saw that wisdom excelleth folly, as far as light excelleth 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's eyes [are] in his head; but the fool walketh in darkness: and I myself perceived also that one event happeneth to them all.
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 said I in my heart, As it happeneth to the fool, so it happeneth even to me; and why was I then more wise? Then I said in my heart, that this also [is] vanity.
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 [there is] no remembrance of the wise more than of the fool for ever; seeing that which now [is] in the days to come shall all be forgotten. And how dieth the wise [man]? as the fool.
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.
Therefore I hated life; because the work that is wrought under the sun [is] grievous to me: for all [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
18 Wixii aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshooday oo dhan waan nacay, maxaa yeelay, waa inaan uga tago ninka iga dambeeya.
Yes, I hated all my labor which I had taken under the sun: because I should leave it to the man that shall be 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.
And who knoweth whether he shall be a wise [man] or a fool? yet shall he have rule over all my labor in which I have labored, and in which I have showed myself wise under the sun. This [is] also vanity.
20 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ayaan uga qalbi jabay wixii aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshooday oo dhan.
Therefore I went about to cause my heart to despair of all the labor which I took under the sun.
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 is a man whose labor is in wisdom, and in knowledge, and in equity; yet to a man that hath not labored in it, shall he leave it [for] his portion. This also [is] vanity and a great evil.
22 Bal maxaa nin ka helaa hawshiisa uu qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshoodo oo dhan iyo dabagalka qalbigiisaba?
For what hath man of all his labor, and of the vexation of his heart, in which he hath labored 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.
For all his days [are] sorrows, and his labor grief; yes, his heart taketh not rest in the night. This is also vanity.
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 a man than that he should eat and drink, and [that] he should make his soul enjoy good in his labor. This also I saw, that it [was] from the hand of God.
25 Waayo, bal yaa wax cuni kara, yaase raaxaysan kara in iga badan?
For who can eat, or who else can hasten [to it] more than I?
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 [God] giveth to a man who [is] good in his sight, wisdom, and knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he giveth toil, to gather, and to amass, that he may give to [him that is] good before God. This also [is] vanity and vexation of spirit.
