Ayuub 14
1 Ninkii naagu dhashaba Cimrigiisu waa maalmo yar iyo dhibaato miidhan.
Man, born of woman, living for a short time, is filled with many miseries.
2 Wuxuu u soo baxaa sida ubax oo kale, oo haddana waa la gooyaa, Oo wuxuu u cararaa sida hoos oo kale, oo innaba siima raago.
He comes forth like a flower, and is crushed, and he flees, as if a shadow, and never remains in the same state.
3 Haddaba ma mid sidaas oo kalaad indhaha u kala qaadaysaa? Oo ma anigaad xukun ila soo gelaysaa?
And do you consider it fitting to look down with your eyes on someone in this way and to lead him into judgment with you?
4 Bal yaa wax wasakh ah wax nadiif ah ka soo bixin kara? Xataa mid qudha oo saas yeeli karaa ma jiro.
Who can make him clean who is conceived of unclean seed? Are you not the only one who can?
5 Maxaa yeelay, dadka cimrigiisu waa go'an yahay, oo inta bilood oo uu jirayo tiradoodana adigaa haya, Oo waxaad u dhigtay soohdin uusan dhaafi karin.
The days of man are short, and the number of his months is with you; you have determined his limits, which cannot be surpassed.
6 Bal ha nastee isaga ka sii jeeso, Ilaa uu cimrigiisa ka dhammaysanayo sida shaqaale maalintiisa u dhammaysto.
Withdraw a little from him, so that he may rest, until his awaited day arrives, like that of the hired hand.
7 Waayo, geed dheer haddii la gooyo rajuu leeyahay inuu mar kale soo biqlo, Iyo in laantiisa curdanka ahu ayan joogsan.
A tree has hope: if it has been cut, it turns green again, and its branches spring forth.
8 In kastoo xididkiisu uu ciidda ku dhex gaboobo, Oo ay jirriddiisiina dhulka dhexdiisa ku dhimato,
If its roots grow old in the earth, and its trunk passes into dust,
9 Biyaha urkooda ayuu ku biqli doonaa, Oo waxaa ka soo bixi doona laamo curdan ah oo dhalato la moodo.
at the scent of water, it will sprout and bring forth leaves, as when it had first been planted.
10 Laakiinse ninku wuu dhintaa, wuuna iska baabba'aa, Oo ninka naftu waa ka dhacdaa, oo bal xaggee buu joogaa isagu?
Truly, when a man dies, and has been left unprotected, and has decayed, I ask you where is he?
11 Biyuhu badda way ka dhammaadaan, Oo webiguna waa gudhaa oo waa iska engegaa,
It is as if the waters had receded from the sea and an emptied river had dried up;
12 Sidaas oo kalaa dadku u jiifsada oo mana uu kaco, Oo jeeray samooyinku wada baabba'aan iyagu sooma toosi doonaan, Oo hurdadoodana kama kici doonaan.
just so, when a man is fallen asleep, he will not rise again, until the heavens are worn away; he will not awaken, nor rise from his sleep.
13 Hahe bal maad She'ool igu qarisid, Oo bal maad meel qarsoon igu haysid ilaa cadhadaadu dhaafto, Oo bal maad wakhti go'an ii qabatid, oo aad i soo xusuusatid! (Sheol h7585)
Who will grant this to me, that you will protect me in the underworld, and hide me until your fury passes by, and establish a time for me, in which you will remember me? (Sheol h7585)
14 Mar hadduu nin dhinto, miyuu soo noolaanayaa? Maalmaha dadaalkayga oo dhan waan iska sugi lahaa Ilaa uu isbeddelkaygu yimaado.
Do you suppose that a dead man will live again? On each of the days in which I now battle, I wait until my transformation occurs.
15 Waad ii yeedhi lahayd, oo anna waan kuu jawaabi lahaa; Oo adna waxaa damac kaa geli lahaa shuqulkii gacmahaaga.
You will call me and I will answer you; to the work of your hands, you will extend your right hand.
16 Laakiinse haatan waad tirisaa tallaabooyinkayga, Balse miyaadan dembigayga isha ku hayn?
Indeed, you have numbered my steps, but you have been lenient with my sins.
17 Xadgudubkaygii kolay baa lagu xidhay, Oo xumaantaydiina meel baad ku dhuujisay.
You have sealed up my offenses, as if in a purse, but you have cured my iniquity.
18 Oo sida xaqiiqada ah buurtii dhacdaa waa baabba'daa, Oo dhagaxiina meeshiisii wuu ka dhaqaaqaa.
A falling mountain flows away, and a stone is transferred from its place.
19 Biyuhu dhagaxyaday lisaan, Oo daadkooduna wuxuu qaada ciidda dhulka, Oo adna sidaasoo kalaad u baabbi'isaa binu-aadmiga rajadiisa.
Waters wear away stones, and with a flood the land is reduced little by little; and similarly, you will destroy man.
20 Weligaaba waad ka adkaataa isaga, oo isna wuu iska baxaa, Oo jaahiisa waad beddeshaa, oo waad iska dirtaa isaga.
You have strengthened him for a little while, so that he may cross over into eternity. You will change his face and send him forth.
21 Wiilashiisa waa la sharfaa, laakiinse isagu waxba kama oga; Oo haddana hoos baa loo ridaa, laakiinse isagu waxba kama garto iyaga.
Whether his sons have been noble or ignoble, he will not understand.
22 Laakiinse xanuunka jidhkiisa oo keliya buu gartaa, Oo nafsaddiisa oo keliya ayuu u baroortaa.
And in this way his body, while he yet lives, will have grief, and his soul will mourn over himself.
