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 a wise man? Who knows what the events in life mean? Wisdom in a man causes his face to shine, and the hardness of his face is changed.
2 Waxaan kugula talinayaa inaad boqorka amarkiisa dhawrtid, dhaartii Ilaah ee aad ku dhaaratay aawadeed.
I advise you to obey the king's command because of God's oath to protect him.
3 Ha ku degdegin inaad hortiisa ka tagtid, wax shar ahna ha ku sii adkaan, waayo, isagu wuxuu sameeyaa wax alla wuxuu ku farxo.
Do not hurry out of his presence, and do not stand in support of something wrong, for the king does whatever he desires.
4 Waayo, boqorka hadalkiisu xoog buu leeyahay, oo yaase isaga ku odhan kara, War maxaad samaynaysaa?
The king's word rules, so who will say to him, “What are you doing?”
5 Ku alla kii amarka dhawra innaba waxyeello ma gaadhi doonto, oo ninka xigmadda leh qalbigiisuna wakhtiga iyo garsooriddaba wuu gartaa.
Whoever keeps the king's commands avoids harm. A wise man's heart recognizes the proper course and time of action.
6 Maxaa yeelay, xaal kastaaba wuxuu leeyahay wakhti iyo garsoorid, in kastoo nin dhibaatadiisu iyadoo weyn ay saaran tahay.
For every matter there is a correct response and a time to respond, because the troubles of man are great.
7 Maxaa yeelay, isagu garan maayo waxa ahaan doona, waayo, bal yaa isaga u sheegi kara siday u ahaan doonaan?
No one knows what is coming next. Who can tell him what is coming?
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 one is ruler over his breath so as to stop the breath, and no one has power over the day of his death. No one is discharged from the army during a battle, and wickedness will not rescue those who are its slaves.
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.
I have realized all this; I have applied my heart to every kind of work that is done under the sun. There is a time when a person oppresses another person to that person's 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.
So I saw the wicked buried publicly. They were taken from the holy area and buried and were praised by people in the city where they had done their wicked deeds. This also is uselessness.
11 Shuqulka sharka ah xukunkiisa dhaqso looma oofiyo, oo sidaas daraaddeed binu-aadmiga qalbigiisu inuu shar sameeyo aad buu u damcaa.
When a sentence against an evil crime is not executed quickly, it entices the hearts of human beings 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.
Even though a sinner does evil a hundred times and still lives a long time, yet I know that it will be better for those who respect God, for those who stand before him and show him respect.
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 will not go well for a wicked man; his life will not be prolonged. His days are like a fleeting shadow because he does not honor 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 another useless vapor—something else that is done on the earth. Things happen to righteous people as they happen to wicked people, and things happen to wicked people as they happen to righteous people. I say that this also is useless vapor.
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.
So I recommend happiness, because a man has no better thing under the sun than to eat and drink and to be happy. It is happiness that will accompany him in his labor for all the days of his life that God has 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 understand the work that is done on the earth, work often done without sleep for the eyes at night or in the day,
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 considered all of God's deeds, and that man cannot understand the work that is done under the sun. No matter how much a man labors to find the answers, he will not find them. Even though a wise man might believe he knows, he really does not.
