Wacdiyahii 8
1 Yaa ninka xigmadda leh la mid ah? Yaase wax micnihiisa yaqaan? Nin xigmaddiisu wejigiisay dhalaalisaa, oo adaygga wejigiisuna wuu beddelmaa.
Who is like the wise? and who knoweth [as well] the explanation of a thing? a man's wisdom enlighteneth his face, and the boldness of his face will be lessened.
2 Waxaan kugula talinayaa inaad boqorka amarkiisa dhawrtid, dhaartii Ilaah ee aad ku dhaaratay aawadeed.
I [counsel thee], Keep the king's command, and that which regardeth the oath [to him taken] by God.
3 Ha ku degdegin inaad hortiisa ka tagtid, wax shar ahna ha ku sii adkaan, waayo, isagu wuxuu sameeyaa wax alla wuxuu ku farxo.
Be not hasty to go out of his presence; engage not in an evil thing; for whatsoever pleaseth him, can he do;
4 Waayo, boqorka hadalkiisu xoog buu leeyahay, oo yaase isaga ku odhan kara, War maxaad samaynaysaa?
Because the word of a king is powerful; and who may say unto him, What doest thou?—
5 Ku alla kii amarka dhawra innaba waxyeello ma gaadhi doonto, oo ninka xigmadda leh qalbigiisuna wakhtiga iyo garsooriddaba wuu gartaa.
Whoso keepeth the commandment will experience no evil thing: and a wise man's heart knoweth both time and the just consequence.
6 Maxaa yeelay, xaal kastaaba wuxuu leeyahay wakhti iyo garsoorid, in kastoo nin dhibaatadiisu iyadoo weyn ay saaran tahay.
Because for every pursuit there is a time and a just consequence; for the evil of man [resteth] heavily upon him.
7 Maxaa yeelay, isagu garan maayo waxa ahaan doona, waayo, bal yaa isaga u sheegi kara siday u ahaan doonaan?
For he knoweth not that which will be; for who can tell him how it will be?
8 Ninna amar uma leh inuu nafta ceshado, oo maalinta dhimashadana amar uma leh. Oo wakhtiga dagaalkaasna fasax ma leh, oo sharnimaduna ma samatabbixin doonto kuwa iyada leh.
No man hath control over the spirit to detain the spirit; and there is no control over the day of death; and there is no representation in that war; and wickedness will not deliver those that practise it.
9 Waxaas oo dhan ayaan arkay, oo qalbigaygana waan u soo jeediyey shuqul kasta oo qorraxda hoosteeda lagu sameeyo oo dhan. Waxaa jira wakhti nin mid kale u taliyo oo uu wax yeelo.
All this have I seen, and directed my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: there is a time when one man ruleth over another to his own injury.
10 Oo haddana waxaan arkay sharrowyadii oo la aasay, kuwaas oo iman jiray oo ka bixi jiray meeshii quduuska ahayd, oo magaaladii ay waxaas ku dhex sameeyeenna waa laga illoobay. Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
Then also did I see the wicked buried, who had gone to their rest; but those who had acted correctly had to go away from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city. Also this is vanity.
11 Shuqulka sharka ah xukunkiisa dhaqso looma oofiyo, oo sidaas daraaddeed binu-aadmiga qalbigiisu inuu shar sameeyo aad buu u damcaa.
Because the punishment against evil deeds is not executed speedily, therefore is the heart of the sons of men filled up in them to do evil.
12 In kastoo dembile boqol jeer shar sameeyo, oo cimrigiisuna aad u sii raago, haddana hubaal waxaan ogahay in kuwa Ilaah ka cabsada oo hortiisa ka baqaa ay nabdoonaan doonaan.
But let a sinner do evil a hundred times, and [God] withhold long his punishment from him; still do I truly know for certain that it will be well with those that fear God, because they are afraid of him;
13 Laakiinse sharrowgu ma nabdoonaan doono, oo cimrigiisuna sii ma raagi doono sida hooska baabba'u uusan u raagin, maxaa yeelay, isagu Ilaah hortiisa kama cabsado.
And that it will not be well with the wicked, and that he will not endure many days, like the shadow; because he is not afraid of God.
14 Waxaa jira wax aan waxba tarayn oo dhulka lagu sameeyo, waana inay jiraan kuwa xaqa ah oo ay wax ku dhacaan sida shuqulka kuwa sharka ah, oo haddana ay jiraan kuwa sharka ah oo ay wax ku dhacaan sida shuqulka kuwa xaqa ah. Oo waxaan idhi, Taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn.
There is a vanity which is done upon the earth, that there are righteous men, unto whom it happeneth in accordance with the deeds of the wicked; again, there are wicked men, to whom it happeneth in accordance with the deeds of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.
15 Markaasaan farax u bogay, maxaa yeelay binu-aadmigu inta qorraxda ka hoosaysa kuma haysto wax uga wanaagsan inuu wax cuno, oo wax cabbo, oo uu iska farxo, waayo, taasaa isaga raacaysa intuu hawshoodo cimrigiisa Ilaah qorraxda hoosteeda ku siiyo.
Therefore do I praise joyfulness, that there is nothing better for man under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be joyful; for this will adhere to him in his toil, during the days of his life which God hath given him under the sun.—
16 Markaan qalbigayga u soo jeedshay inaan xigmad garto, iyo inaan arko hawsha dhulka lagu sameeyo (waayo, waxaa jira mid aan habeen iyo maalin toona indhihiisa hurdo saarin),
When I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to see the employment that is done upon the earth, how even neither by day nor by night sleep is seen in the eyes of some men:
17 markaasaan shuqulka Ilaah oo dhan fiiriyey, oo gartay inaan binu-aadmigu karin inuu soo wada ogaado shuqulka qorraxda hoosteeda lagu sameeyo oo dhan, maxaa yeelay, in kastoo laysku dhibo in la soo ogaado, haddana taas innaba lama soo heli karo, oo weliba xataa haddii nin xigmad lahu uu u maleeyo inuu soo ogaado, haddana soo ma uu ogaan kari doono.
Then did I see [in] the whole work of God, that a man is not able to find out the work that is done under the sun; inasmuch as though a man were to toil to seek for it, he would yet not find it; and even if the wise were to think to know it, he would yet not be able to find it.
