Wacdiyahii 5
1 Markaad guriga Ilaah tegaysid is-ilaali, waayo, inaad u dhowaatid si aad wax u maqashid way ka roon tahay inaad bixisid allabariga nacasyada oo kale, maxaa yeelay, iyagu ma oga inay wax shar ah samaynayaan.
Look well to thy feet, when thou goest to the house of God, and draw nigh to hear, rather than to offer sacrifice as fools. For they consider not that they do evil.
2 Afkaaga ha ku degdegin, oo inaad Ilaah hortiisa wax kaga hadashid ha u dhaqsan, waayo, Ilaah samaduu joogaa, adna dhulkaad joogtaa, haddaba hadalkaagu ha yaraado.
Be not hasty with thy mouth, and let not thy heart be swift to utter any thing before God. For God is in heaven, and thou upon earth. Therefore let thy words be few.
3 Waayo, riyo waxay ka dhalataa hawl badan, oo nacaska codkiisana waxaa lagu gartaa hadalkiisa badan.
For a dream cometh with much bustle, and a fool's voice with a multitude of words.
4 Markaad Ilaah nidar u nidartid waa inaadan inaad bixisid dib uga dhicin, waayo, isagu nacasyada kuma farxo ee wixii aad u nidartay bixi.
When thou vowest a vow to God, delay not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools. Pay that which thou hast vowed.
5 Inaad nidar gasho oo aadan bixin waxaa ka wanaagsan inaadan waxba nidrin.
Better is it that thou shouldst not vow than that thou shouldst vow and not pay.
6 Afkaaga ha u oggolaan inuu jidhkaaga dembaajiyo, oo malaa'igta horteedana ha ka odhan, Qalad bay ahaayeen. Bal maxaad Ilaah codkaaga ugu cadhaysiisaa si uu shuqulka gacmahaaga u baabbi'iyo?
Suffer not thy mouth to bring punishment on thy flesh, and say not before the angel, “It was a mistake.” Wherefore should God be angry on account of thy voice, and destroy the work of thy hands?
7 Waayo, riyooyin iyo erayo fara badanba waxaa ku jira wax badan oo aan waxtar lahayn, laakiinse adigu Ilaah ka cabso.
For in a multitude of dreams is a multitude of vanities; so also in a multitude of words; but fear thou God!
8 Haddaad gobol ku aragtid masaakiin la dulmayo, iyo garsoorid iyo caddaalad si xoog leh loo qalloocinayo, waxaas ha la yaabin, waayo, kan sare mid ka sii sarreeya ayaa eegaya, oo weliba waxaa jira kuwa ka sii sarreeya iyaga.
If thou seest oppression of the poor, and justice and equity perverted in a province, be not alarmed at the matter. For over the high there is a higher, who watcheth, and there is one higher than they all.
9 Dhulka faa'iidadiisu kulli way ka dhexaysaa, waayo, boqorka qudhiisaba waxaa looga adeegaa beerta.
An advantage to a land in all respects is a king over cultivated ground.
10 Kii lacag jecelu lacag kama dhergi doono, oo kii maal badan jeceluna faa'iido kama dhergi doono, taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; and he that loveth riches shall have no profit from them. This also is vanity.
11 Markii maalku bato kuwa cunaana way sii bataan. Maalku bal muxuu kan leh u taraa inuu indhihiisa ku fiiriyo mooyaane?
When goods increase, they are increased that eat them; and what advantage hath the owner thereof, save the beholding of them with his eyes?
12 Ninkii hawshooda hurdadiisu waa u macaan tahay, hadduu wax yar cuno iyo hadduu wax badan cunoba, laakiinse taajirka maalkiisa badanu hurdaduu u diidaa.
Sweet is the sleep of a laboring man, whether he have eaten little or much; but the repletion of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.
13 Waxaa jira wax shar ah oo aad u xun oo aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku arkay, waana maal badan oo uu kan lahu sii haysto oo uu waxyeello uun isu keeno.
There is a sore evil which I have seen under the sun, — riches kept by the owner thereof to his hurt.
14 Oo maalkaasu wax xun buu ku baabba'aa, oo kii lahaana wiil buu dhalay, laakiinse gacantiisa waxba kuma jiraan.
For those riches perish by some calamity, and, if he have a son, there is nothing in his hand.
15 Siduu uurka hooyadiis uga soo baxay ayuu isagoo qaawan ku tegi doonaa, siduu hore ku yimid oo kale. Oo hawshiisa aawadeedna wax uu gacanta ku qaadan karo ma qaadan doono.
As he came forth from his mother's womb naked, so shall he go away again, as he came, and shall take away nothing of his labor which he may carry in his hand.
16 Oo weliba taasuna waa wax aad u xun inuu si kastaba ku tago siduu hore ku yimid oo kale; haddaba kan dabayl ku hawshooda bal maxaa faa'iido ah oo uu helayaa?
This is also a sore evil, that, in all points as he came, so shall he go. And what profit is there to him who toileth for wind?
17 Oo weliba cimrigiisa oo dhan wuxuu ku cunaa gudcur, oo intaasna wuxuu ku jiraa murug, iyo cudur, iyo cadho.
Also all his days he ate in darkness, and had much grief and anxiety and vexation.
18 Bal eeg, waxaan gartay inay wanaagsan tahay oo habboon tahay in qof wax cuno oo wax cabbo, iyo inuu hawshiisa uu qorraxda hoosteeda ku hawshoodo oo dhan ku istareexo cimrigii Ilaah siiyey oo dhan, waayo, taasu waa qaybtiisa.
Behold, what I have seen is, that it is good and proper for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor which he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him; for it is his portion.
19 Oo weliba nin kasta oo Ilaah maal iyo hanti siiyey, oo haddana siiyey karti uu wax kaga cuno, oo uu kaga qayb qaato, iyo inuu hawshiisa ku reyreeyoba, taasu waa hibo Ilaah.
To whatever man also God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him to enjoy them, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God.
20 Waayo, isagu aad uma xusuusan doono wakhtigii uu noolaa, maxaa yeelay, Ilaah baa farxad qalbigiisa geliya.
For he will not much remember the days of his life; for God answereth him with the joy of his heart.
