Ayuub 12
1 Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And Job made answer and said,
2 Shakila'aan waxaad tihiin dadkii, Oo xigmad baa idinla dhiman doonta.
No doubt you have knowledge, and wisdom will come to an end with you.
3 Laakiinse aniguba waxgarasho baan leeyahay sidiinna oo kale, Oo weliba idinkama aan liito. Bal waxyaalahan oo kale kan aan garanaynu waa ayo?
But I have a mind as well as you; I am equal to you: yes, who has not knowledge of such things as these?
4 Waxaan la mid ahay sida mid saaxiibkiisu ku maadaysto, Anoo Ilaah baryay oo isna uu ii jawaabay, Ninkii xaq ah oo qumman waa lagu maadaystaa.
It seems that I am to be as one who is a cause of laughing to his neighbour, one who makes his prayer to God and is answered! the upright man who has done no wrong is to be made sport of!
5 Kii istareexsan fikirkiisu waa yaraystaa nasiibdarrada, Laakiinse diyaar bay u tahay kuwa cagtoodu simbiriirixato.
In the thought of him who is in comfort there is no respect for one who is in trouble; such is the fate of those whose feet are slipping.
6 Kuwa wax dhaca teendhooyinkoodu way barwaaqoobaan, Oo kuwa Ilaah ka cadhaysiiyaana ammaan bay ku joogaan, Oo Ilaahna gacmahooduu wax kasta uga buuxshaa.
There is wealth in the tents of those who make destruction, and those by whom God is moved to wrath are safe; even those whose god is their strength.
7 Laakiinse haatan bal xayawaanka wax weyddii, oo iyana wax bay ku bari doonaan, Iyo haadka hawada, oo iyana wax bay kuu sheegi doonaan,
But put now a question to the beasts, and get teaching from them; or to the birds of the heaven, and they will make it clear to you;
8 Amase bal dhulka la hadal, oo isna wax buu ku bari doonaa, Oo kalluunka badduna wax buu kuu sheegi doonaa.
Or to the things which go flat on the earth, and they will give you wisdom; and the fishes of the sea will give you news of it.
9 Bal yuu yahay kan aan waxyaalahan oo dhan ka garanayn Inay gacanta Rabbigu waxan samaysay?
Who does not see by all these that the hand of the Lord has done this?
10 Kaasoo gacantiisa ku haya nafta wax kasta oo nool Iyo neefta binu-aadmiga oo dhan.
In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all flesh of man.
11 War sow dhegtu erayada ma kala soocdo, Sida dhanxanagguba cuntadiisa u dhadhamiyo?
Are not words tested by the ear, even as food is tasted by the mouth?
12 Odayaashu waxay leeyihiin xigmad, Oo cimriga dheerna waxaa laga helaa waxgarasho.
Old men have wisdom, and a long life gives knowledge.
13 Isagu wuxuu leeyahay xigmad iyo xoog, Oo wuxuu leeyahay talo iyo waxgarasho.
With him there is wisdom and strength; power and knowledge are his.
14 Bal eeg, isagu wax buu dumiyaa, Oo wuxuu dumiyana mar dambe lama dhisi karo, Nin buu xidhaa oo wax furi kara lama arko.
Truly, there is no building up of what is pulled down by him; when a man is shut up by him, no one may let him loose.
15 Biyuhuu celiyaa, oo way iska gudhaan, Oo haddana wuu soo daayaa, markaasay dhulka qarqiyaan.
Truly, he keeps back the waters and they are dry; he sends them out and the earth is overturned.
16 Xoog iyo xigmaduba isagay la jiraan, Oo kan la khiyaaneeyey iyo kan wax khiyaaneeyaba isagaa iska leh.
With him are strength and wise designs; he who is guided into error, together with his guide, are in his hands;
17 Taliyayaasha wuxuu u kaxaystaa sida booli la dhacay, Xaakinnadana nacasyo buu ka dhigaa.
He takes away the wisdom of the wise guides, and makes judges foolish;
18 Wuxuu furaa boqorrada xidhan, Oo dhex-xidh buuna u xidhaa.
He undoes the chains of kings, and puts his band on them;
19 Wadaaddadana sida booli la dhacay buu u kaxaystaa, Oo kuwa xoogga badanna wuu afgembiyaa.
He makes priests prisoners, overturning those in safe positions;
20 Kuwa la aaminayna wuu hadal beeliyaa, Oo odayaashana waxgarashaduu ka qaadaa.
He makes the words of responsible persons without effect, and takes away the good sense of the old;
21 Amiirrada wuxuu ku shubaa quudhsasho, Kuwa xoogga badanna suunkooduu debciyaa.
He puts shame on chiefs, and takes away the power of the strong;
22 Wuxuu gudcurka ka soo saaraa waxyaalo mool dheer, Oo hooska dhimashadana iftiinkuu u soo bixiyaa.
Uncovering deep things out of the dark, and making the deep shade bright;
23 Quruumaha wuu badiyaa, oo haddana wuu wada baabbi'iyaa, Oo quruumaha wuu ballaadhiyaa, oo haddana wuu kexeeyaa,
Increasing nations, and sending destruction on them; making wide the lands of peoples, and then giving them up.
24 Wuxuu caqliga ka qaadaa madaxda dadyowga dhulka, Oo wuxuu iyaga ku warwareejiyaa meel cidla ah oo aan jid lahayn.
He takes away the wisdom of the rulers of the earth, and sends them wandering in a waste where there is no way.
25 Waxay wax ka haabhaabtaan gudcurka iyagoo aan iftiin lahayn, Oo wuxuu iyaga ka dhigaa inay u dhacdhacaan sida nin sakhraan ah.
They go feeling about in the dark without light, wandering without help like those overcome with wine.
