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 man, and who knoweth the explanation of a thing? A man's wisdom brighteneth his countenance, and the harshness of his face is changed.
2 Waxaan kugula talinayaa inaad boqorka amarkiisa dhawrtid, dhaartii Ilaah ee aad ku dhaaratay aawadeed.
I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that on account of the oath of 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 in haste to depart from his presence; persist not in an evil thing; for whatever pleaseth him, that he doeth.
4 Waayo, boqorka hadalkiisu xoog buu leeyahay, oo yaase isaga ku odhan kara, War maxaad samaynaysaa?
For the word of the king is powerful; and who can say to 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.
He that keepeth the commandment shall experience no evil; and the heart of the wise man hath regard to time and judgment.
6 Maxaa yeelay, xaal kastaaba wuxuu leeyahay wakhti iyo garsoorid, in kastoo nin dhibaatadiisu iyadoo weyn ay saaran tahay.
For to every thing there is a time and judgment. For the misery of man is great upon him.
7 Maxaa yeelay, isagu garan maayo waxa ahaan doona, waayo, bal yaa isaga u sheegi kara siday u ahaan doonaan?
For no one knoweth what shall be; for who can tell him how it shall 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 power over the spirit to retain the spirit, and no man hath power over the day of death; and there is no discharge in that war; and wickedness shall not deliver those that are guilty of 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 I have given heed to all things that are done under the sun. There is a time when man ruleth over man to his hurt.
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.
And so I saw the wicked buried, while the righteous came and went from the holy place, and were forgotten in the city. This also is vanity.
11 Shuqulka sharka ah xukunkiisa dhaqso looma oofiyo, oo sidaas daraaddeed binu-aadmiga qalbigiisu inuu shar sameeyo aad buu u damcaa.
Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore doth the heart of the sons of men become bold within 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 though a sinner do evil a hundred times, and have his days prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, that fear before 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.
But it shall not be well with the wicked: he shall be like a shadow, and shall not prolong his days, because he feareth not before 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 taketh place upon the earth, that there are righteous men to whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked, and that there are wicked men to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous. I said, “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.
Then I commended joy; because nothing is good for a man under the sun, except to eat and to drink and to be joyful; for it is this that abideth with him for his labor during the days of his life which God giveth 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 mind to know wisdom, and to see the business which is done upon the earth, —that one seeth no sleep with his eyes by day or by night, —
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 I saw the whole work of God, that a man cannot comprehend that which is done under the sun; how much soever he labor to search it out, yet shall he not comprehend it; yea, though a wise man resolve to know it, yet shall he not be able to comprehend it.
