Wacdiyahii 9
1 Waxyaalahan oo dhan qalbigaygaan kaga fiirsaday si aan u baadho in kuwa xaqa ah iyo kuwa xigmadda leh, iyo shuqulladooduba ay gacanta Ilaah ku jiraan. Binu-aadmigu garan maayo inay jacayl tahay iyo inay nacayb tahay toona. Wax waluba iyagay ka horreeyaan.
For, unto all this, I applied my heart, and, my heart, considered all this, that, the righteous and the wise and their servants, were in the hand of God, —neither love nor hatred, could any man know, every one, was before Him.
2 Wax kastaaba isku si bay dadka oo dhan ugu yimaadaan, oo isku wax baa ku dhaca ka xaqa ah iyo ka sharka ahba, ka wanaagsan iyo ka xunba, ka nadiifta ah iyo ka aan nadiifta ahaynba, ka allabariga bixiya iyo ka aan allabariga bixinba. Sida kan wanaagsanu yahay ayaa dembiluhuna yahay, oo ka dhaartaana waa la mid kan dhaarta ka cabsada.
Every one, was like every one else, one destiny, had the righteous and the lawless, the good and the pure and the impure, and he that sacrificed, and he that did not sacrifice, —as the good man, so, the sinner, he that took an oath, as he who, of an oath, stood in fear.
3 Wax xun baa ku jira waxa qorraxda hoosteeda lagu sameeyo oo dhan, waana in isku wax ay dadka oo dhan ku dhacaan. Oo weliba qalbiga binu-aadmiga shar baa ka buuxa, oo qalbigoodana intay nool yihiin waalli baa ku jirta, oo taas dabadeedna kuwii dhintay ayay u tagaan.
This was a misfortune in all that was done under the sun, that, one destiny, had they all, —yea also, the heart of the sons of men, was full of wickedness, and, madness, was in their heart, while they lived, and, after that, [they went] unto the dead.
4 Kii kuwa nool oo dhan la jira rajuu leeyahay, waayo, eeygii noolu waa ka wanaagsan yahay libaax dhintay.
For, whosoever was united to all the living, for him, there was hope, —inasmuch as, a living dog, fared better than a dead lion.
5 Waayo, kuwa noolu way og yihiin inay dhiman doonaan, laakiinse kuwa dhintay waxba ma oga, oo innaba abaalgud dambe ma heli doonaan, waayo, iyaga waa la illoobay.
For, the living, knew that they should die, —but, the dead, knew not, anything, neither had they any longer a reward, because forgotten was their memory.
6 Oo weliba jacaylkoodii iyo nacaybkoodii iyo hinaasiddoodiiba way wada baabbe'een, oo innaba qayb dambe kuma lahaan doonaan waxa qorraxda hoosteeda lagu sameeyo oo dhan.
Both their love and their hatred and their envy, already had perished, —and, portion, had they none any longer, unto times age-abiding, in aught that was done under the sun.
7 Orod oo tag, oo kibistaada farxad ku cun, oo khamrigaagana qalbi istareexsan ku cab, waayo, Ilaah shuqulladaadii horuu u aqbalay.
Go thy way—eat, with gladness, thy food, and drink, with a happy heart, thy wine, —when already God is well pleased with thy works.
8 Had iyo goorba dharkaagu wax cad ha ahaado, oo madaxaaguna yuusan saliid waayin.
Continually, let thy garments be white, —and, ointment upon thy head, let it not be lacking.
9 Naagtaada aad jeceshahay farxad kula noolow intaad ku nooshahay cimrigaaga aan waxba tarayn ee Ilaah qorraxda hoosteeda kugu siiyey oo dhan, waayo, taasu waa qaybtaadii aad ku heshay noloshan iyo hawshaadii aad qorraxda hoosteeda ku dhibtootay.
Enjoy life, with thy wife whom thou lovest, all the days of thy life of vanity, which he hath given thee under the sun, all thy days of vanity, —for, that, is thy portion in life, and in thy toil wherewith, thou, art toiling under the sun.
10 Wax alla wixii gacantaadu hesho inay samayso xooggaaga oo dhan ku samee, waayo, She'ool oo aad tegaysid shuqul iyo hindiso iyo aqoon iyo xigmad toona laguma arko. (Sheol h7585)
Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, with thy might, do, —for there is no work nor calculation nor knowledge nor wisdom, in hades, whither, thou, art going. (Sheol h7585)
11 Markaasaan mar kale fiirsaday, oo waxaan qorraxda hoosteeda ku arkay inaan kuwa dheereeyaa mar kasta tartanka ku badin, ama aan kuwa xoogga badanu mar kasta dagaalka adkaan, ama aan kuwa xigmadda lahu mar kasta kibis helin, ama aan kuwa garaadka ahu mar kasta hodan noqon, ama aan saanacyada mar kasta raalli laga ahayn, laakiinse waxaa kulligood hela wakhti iyo nasiib.
I again saw under the sun, that not, to the swift, was the race, nor, to the strong, the battle, nay! nor, to the wise, food, nor yet, to the intelligent, riches, nor, even to the well-informed, comeliness, —for, time and accident, happened to them all.
12 Waayo, ninna wedkiisa ma yaqaan. Sida kalluun shabag xun lagu qabto, iyo sida shimbirro dabin ku dhaca, saasoo kalaa binu-aadmigana wakhti xun lagu dabaa, markii wedku si kedis ah ugu yimaado.
For, indeed, man could not know his own time, like fishes which were caught in a cruel net, and like little birds which were caught in a trap, —like them, were ensnared the sons of men, by a time of misfortune, when it fell upon them suddenly.
13 Oo xigmad caynkan ah ayaan qorraxda hoosteeda ku arkay, iyana way ila weynayd.
Even this, had I seen of wisdom, under the sun, —and, of great import, was the same unto me: —
14 Waxaa jirtay magaalo yar oo ay dad tiro yaru dhexdeeda joogaan, oo waxaa iyadii ku soo duulay boqor weyn. Wuu hareereeyey oo dhufayso waaweyn hareereheeda ka dhistay.
A little city, and men therein few, —and there came against it a great king, and surrounded it, and built against it large siege-works;
15 Haddana waxaa laga dhex helay nin miskiin ah oo xigmad leh, oo isna xigmaddiisii ayuu magaaladii ku samatabbixiyey, laakiinse haddana ninkaas miskiinka ah ciduna ma xusuusan.
but there was found therein, a man, poor [but] wise, and, he, delivered the city by his wisdom, —yet, no one, remembered that poor man.
16 Markaasaan idhi, Xigmaddu xoogga way ka fiican tahay, hase ahaatee ninkii miskiin ah xigmaddiisa waa la quudhsadaa, oo erayadiisana lama dhegaysto.
Then said, I, Better is wisdom than strength, —although, the wisdom of the poor man, be despised, and, his words, not heard.
17 Kuwa xigmadda leh erayadoodii xasilloonaan lagu maqlaa waa ka sii wanaagsan yihiin qaylada kan nacasyada ka dhex taliya.
The words of the wise, in quietness, are heard, —beyond the outcry of one who ruleth over dullards.
18 Xigmaddu waa ka fiican tahay hubka dagaalka, laakiinse dembile qudha ayaa wax badan oo wanaagsan baabbi'iya.
Better is wisdom, than weapons of war, —but, one sinner, may destroy much good.
