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.
Keep thy foot when thou goest to the house of God; for to draw nigh to hear is better than to give the sacrifice of fools: for they know 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 rash with thy month, and let not thine heart be hasty 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 a multitude of business; 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 unto God, defer not to pay it; for he hath no pleasure in fools: pay that which thou vowest.
5 Inaad nidar gasho oo aadan bixin waxaa ka wanaagsan inaadan waxba nidrin.
Better is it that thou shouldest not vow, than that thou shouldest 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 cause thy flesh to sin; neither say thou before the angel, that it was an error: wherefore should God be angry at thy voice, and destroy the work of thine hands?
7 Waayo, riyooyin iyo erayo fara badanba waxaa ku jira wax badan oo aan waxtar lahayn, laakiinse adigu Ilaah ka cabso.
For [thus it cometh to pass] through the multitude of dreams and vanities and many 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 the oppression of the poor, and the violent taking away of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for one higher than the high regardeth; and there be higher than they.
9 Dhulka faa'iidadiisu kulli way ka dhexaysaa, waayo, boqorka qudhiisaba waxaa looga adeegaa beerta.
Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king [himself] is served by the field.
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; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: 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 is there to the owner thereof, saving 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.
The sleep of a labouring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the fulness 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 grievous evil, which I have seen under the sun, [namely], 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.
and those riches perish by evil adventure; and if he hath begotten 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 of his mother’s womb, naked shall he go again as he came, and shall take nothing for his labour, which he may carry away 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?
And this also is a grievous evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that he laboureth for the wind?
17 Oo weliba cimrigiisa oo dhan wuxuu ku cunaa gudcur, oo intaasna wuxuu ku jiraa murug, iyo cudur, iyo cadho.
All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he is sore vexed and hath sickness and wrath.
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, that which I have seen to be good and to be comely is for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy good in all his labour, wherein he laboureth under the sun, all the days of his life which God hath given him: for this 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.
Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; 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 shall not much remember the days of his life; because God answereth [him] in the joy of his heart.
