Wacdiyahii 3
1 Wax kastaaba waxay leeyihiin wakhti u khaas ah, wax kasta oo samada ka hooseeyaaba waxay leeyihiin wakhti go'an.
For every thing there is a fixed period, and an appointed time to every thing under heaven: —
2 Waxaa jira wakhti la dhasho, iyo wakhti la dhinto; wakhti wax la beero, iyo wakhti wixii la beeray la gurto;
A time to be born, and a time to die. A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted.
3 wakhti wax la dilo, iyo wakhti wax la bogsiiyo; wakhti wax la dumiyo, iyo wakhti wax la dhiso;
A time to kill, and a time to heal. A time to breaking down, and a time to build up.
4 wakhti la ooyo iyo wakhti la qoslo; wakhti la baroorto, iyo wakhti la cayaaro;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh. A time to mourn, and a time to dance.
5 wakhti dhagaxyo la xooro, iyo wakhti dhagaxyo la soo ururiyo; wakhti laysku duubo, iyo wakhti iskuduubidda la daayo;
A time to cast stones asunder, and a time to gather stones together. A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing.
6 wakhti wax la doondoono, iyo wakhti wax la lumiyo; wakhti wax la sii haysto iyo wakhti wax la xooro;
A time to seek, and a time to lose. A time to keep, and a time to cast away.
7 wakhti wax la jeexjeexo, iyo wakhti wax la tolo; wakhti la aamuso iyo wakhti la hadlo;
A time to rend, and a time to sew. A time to keep silence, and a time to speak.
8 wakhti wax la jeclaado iyo wakhti wax la necbaado; wakhti dagaaleed, iyo wakhti nabdeed.
A time to love, and a time to hate. A time of war, and a time of peace.—
9 Kii shaqeeyaa bal maxaa faa'iido ah oo uu ka helaa hawshiisa uu ku hawshoodo?
What profit hath he who laboreth from that with which he wearieth himself?
10 Dhibaatadii Ilaah binu-aadmiga u siiyey inay ku hawshoodaan ayaan arkay.
I have seen the business which God hath given to the sons of men to exercise themselves therewith.
11 Wax kastuu ka dhigay inay wakhtigooda quruxsanaadaan, oo haddana daa'imnimadii ayuu qalbigooda ku beeray, hase ahaatee binu-aadmigu ma uu garto shuqulkii Ilaah sameeyey tan iyo bilowgii ilaa ugudambaysta.
God maketh every thing good in its time; but he hath put the world into the heart of man, so that he understandeth not the work which God doeth, from the beginning to the end.
12 Waan ogahay inaan binu-aadmigu lahayn wax uga wanaagsan inay iska farxaan oo ay cimrigooda oo dhan wanaag sameeyaan mooyaane.
I know that there is nothing better for a man than that he should rejoice and enjoy good his life long.
13 Oo weliba waa hibo Ilaah in nin kastaaba wax cuno oo wax cabbo, oo uu wanaag ku istareexo intuu hawshoodo oo dhan.
But when a man eateth and drinketh, and enjoyeth good through all his labor, this is the gift of God.
14 Waxaan ogahay in wax kasta oo Ilaah sameeyaaba ay weligood sii raagayaan. Waxba laguma dari karo, waxbana lagama dhimi karo. Oo Ilaah wuxuu saas u yeelay in dadku ka cabsado.
I know that whatever God doeth, that shall be for ever. Nothing can be added to it, and nothing taken from it; and God doeth it that men may fear before him.
15 Waxa haatan jiraa horeba way u jireen, oo waxa jiri doonaana horeba way u jireen, oo Ilaahna wuxuu doondoonaa wixii hore u dhaafay.
That which is, was long ago; and that which is to be, hath already been; and God recalleth that which is past.
16 Weliba waxaan kaloo qorraxda hoosteeda ku arkay in meeshii garsooridda ay caddaaladdarro ku jirto, oo meeshii xaqnimadana ay xumaanu ku jirto.
Moreover, I saw under the sun that in the place of justice there was iniquity; and in the place of righteousness, iniquity.
17 Waxaan qalbigayga iska idhi, Ilaah baa u kala garsoori doona kan xaqa ah iyo kan sharka ah, waayo, wax kasta iyo shuqul kastaaba halkaasay wakhti ku leeyihiin.
Then said I in my heart, “God will judge the righteous and the wicked.” For there shall be a time for every matter and for every work.
18 Waxaan qalbigayga iska idhi, Waxaa Ilaah doonaya inuu binu-aadmiga u tijaabiyo inay ogaadaan inay xayawaan yihiin.
I said in my heart concerning the sons of men, that God will prove them, in order that they may see that they are like the beasts.
19 Waayo, wixii binu-aadmiga ku dhacaaba xayawaankana way ku dhacaan, oo xataa isku wax baa ku dhaca, oo sidii midkood u dhinto ayaa kan kalena u dhinta, oo weliba dhammaantood waxay leeyihiin isku neef, oo dadku xayawaanka waxba ma dheera, waayo, wax kastaaba waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts: one lot befalleth both. As the one dieth, so dieth the other. Yea, there is one spirit in them, and a man hath no pre-eminence above a beast; for all is vanity.
20 Kulli isku meel bay tagaan, oo kulligood ciiddaa laga abuuray, oo kulligoodna ciidday ku wada noqon doonaan.
All go to one place; all are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.
21 Waayo, bal yaa yaqaan in dadka naftiisu ay kor tagto iyo in xayawaanka naftiisu ay dhulka hoos u tagto iyo in kale?
Who knoweth the spirit of man, whether it goeth upward, and the spirit of a beast, whether it goeth downward to the earth?
22 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waxaan ogaaday inaan dadka wax u dhaama la arag in nin kasta shuqulladiisa ku farxo mooyaane, waayo, taasu waa qaybtiisii, maxaa yeelay, bal yaa isaga dib u soo celinaya inuu arko waxa dabadiis ahaan doona?
And so I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his labors; for that is his portion. For who shall bring him to see what shall be after him?
