Yacquub 4
1 Dagaallada iyo dirirta idinku dhex jira xaggee bay ka yimaadaan? Miyaanay ka imanin damacyadiinna ku dhex dagaallamaya xubnihiinna?
Whence wars and fightings among you? Do they not come hence, even from your lusts, which 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.
You strongly desire, and have not; you kill, and are zealous, and can not obtain. You fight and war, but have not, because you ask not.
3 Waad weyddiisataan, mana heshaan, waayo, si xun baad u weyddiisataan inaad ku bixisaan damacyadiinna aawadood.
You ask, and do not receive, because you ask wickedly, that you may spend upon your lusts.
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.
Adulterers, and adulteresses, do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity against God? Whosoever, therefore, will be a friend of the world, is counted 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?
Do you think that the scripture speaks in vain? And does the spirit, who dwells in us, strongly incline to envy?
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 gives greater favor. For it says, "God resists the proud, but gives favor to the humble."
7 Haddaba Ilaah ka dambeeya, laakiin Ibliiska hor joogsada, wuu idinka carari doonaaye.
Therefore, be subject to God. 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, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you men of two minds.
9 Dhibtooda oo baroorta oo ooya. Qosolkiinnu baroor ha u rogmado, farxaddiinnuna caloolxumo.
Be exceedingly afflicted, and mourn, and weep; and let your laughter be turned into mourning, and your joy into sadness.
10 Is-hoosaysiiya Rabbiga hortiisa, isna wuu idin sarraysiin doonaa.
Be humble in the presence of the Lord, and he will lift you up.
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.
He who speaks against his brother, and condemns his brother, speaks against the law, and condemns the law. But if you condemn the law, you are 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?
There is one lawgiver, who is able to save, and to destroy. Who are you, that condemn another?
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, you who say, To-day, or to-morrow, we will go to such a city, and will abide there one year, and traffic in merchandise, 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.
who do not know what shall be to-morrow. For what is your life? It is, indeed, a smoke, which appears for a little while, and then vanishes away.
15 Waa inaad tidhaahdaan, Haddii Rabbigu doonayo, waannu noolaan doonnaa oo waxaannu samayn doonnaa tan ama taas.
Instead of which, you ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.
16 Laakiin idinku haatan waxaad ku faanaysaan isla weynaantiinna. Faanka caynkaas ah oo dhammu waa shar.
But now you boast in your proud speeches: all such boasting is evil.
17 Haddaba kii garanaya inuu wax wanaagsan sameeyo laakiin aan samayn, dembi bay u tahay isaga.
Wherefore, to him who know how to do good, and does it not, to him it is sin.
