Yacquub 4
1 Dagaallada iyo dirirta idinku dhex jira xaggee bay ka yimaadaan? Miyaanay ka imanin damacyadiinna ku dhex dagaallamaya xubnihiinna?
Whence [come] wars and whence [come] fightings among you? [come they] not hence, [even] of your pleasures that war in your members?
2 Waad damacdaan, mana lihidin; waad dishaan, waadna xaasiddaan, mana heli kartaan; waad dirirtaan, waadna dagaallantaan, mana lihidin, waayo, ma aad weyddiisataan.
Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and covet, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war; ye have not, because ye ask not.
3 Waad weyddiisataan, mana heshaan, waayo, si xun baad u weyddiisataan inaad ku bixisaan damacyadiinna aawadood.
Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may spend [it] in your pleasures.
4 Dhillayo iyo dhillooyin yahow, miyeydnaan garanayn inay saaxiibnimada dunidu Ilaah la col tahay? Sidaas daraaddeed kii kasta oo doonaya inuu saaxiib la ahaado dunida, Ilaah buu la col noqdaa.
Ye adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore would be a friend of the world maketh himself an enemy of God.
5 Mise waxaad u malaynaysaan in Qorniinku micnela'aan ku hadlo, Ruuxa uu ka dhigay inuu ina dhex joogo ayaa aad iyo aad inoo jecel isagoo inoo masayra?
Or think ye that the scripture speaketh in vain? Doth the spirit which he made to dwell in us long unto envying?
6 Laakiin isagu wuxuu bixiyaa nimco badan oo badan. Haddaba Qorniinku wuxuu leeyahay, Ilaah waa hor joogsadaa kuwa kibra, laakiin kuwa is-hoosaysiiya ayuu nimco siiyaa.
But he giveth more grace. Wherefore [the scripture] saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.
7 Haddaba Ilaah ka dambeeya, laakiin Ibliiska hor joogsada, wuu idinka carari doonaaye.
Be subject therefore unto God; but resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
8 U soo dhowaada Ilaah, isaguna wuu idiin soo dhowaan doonaa. Dembilayaashow, gacmihiinna nadiifiya. Labaqalbiilayaashow, qalbiyadiinna daahiriya.
Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye doubleminded.
9 Dhibtooda oo baroorta oo ooya. Qosolkiinnu baroor ha u rogmado, farxaddiinnuna caloolxumo.
Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness.
10 Is-hoosaysiiya Rabbiga hortiisa, isna wuu idin sarraysiin doonaa.
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you.
11 Xumaan ha iskaga hadlina, walaalayaalow. Kii xumaan walaalkiis kaga hadlaa ama walaalkiis xukumaa, sharciga ayuu xumaan kaga hadlaa, sharcigana wuu xukumaa. Haddaad sharciga xukuntid, adigu ma ihid mid sharciga yeela, laakiin waxaad tahay mid isaga xukuma.
Speak not one against another, brethren. He that speaketh against a brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law: but if thou judgest the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.
12 Waa mid keliya kan sharciga bixiyaa oo wax xukumaa, oo waa kan kara inuu wax badbaadiyo oo uu wax dumiyo. Laakiin adigu yaad tahay, kan deriskiisa xukumow?
One [only] is the lawgiver and judge, [even] he who is able to save and to destroy: but who art thou that judgest thy neighbor?
13 Bal kaalaya hadda, kuwiinnan yidhaahda, Maanta ama berri waxaannu tegi doonaa magaalo, oo halkaasaannu sannad joogi doonnaa, waannu baayacmushtari doonnaa oo faa'iidaysan doonnaa,
Come now, ye that say, To-day or to-morrow we will go into this city, and spend a year there, and trade, and get gain:
14 kuwiinnan aan garanaynin waxa berri dhici doona. Noloshiinnu waa maxay? Waayo, idinku waxaad tihiin ceeryaamo, tan wakhti yar muuqata dabadeedna libidha.
whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. What is your life? For ye are a vapor that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
15 Waa inaad tidhaahdaan, Haddii Rabbigu doonayo, waannu noolaan doonnaa oo waxaannu samayn doonnaa tan ama taas.
For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.
16 Laakiin idinku haatan waxaad ku faanaysaan isla weynaantiinna. Faanka caynkaas ah oo dhammu waa shar.
But now ye glory in your vauntings: all such glorying is evil.
17 Haddaba kii garanaya inuu wax wanaagsan sameeyo laakiin aan samayn, dembi bay u tahay isaga.
To him therefore that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
