Ayuub 14
1 Ninkii naagu dhashaba Cimrigiisu waa maalmo yar iyo dhibaato miidhan.
Man, born of woman! Of few days, and full of trouble!
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.
As a flower he hath gone forth, and is cut off, And he fleeth as a shadow and standeth not.
3 Haddaba ma mid sidaas oo kalaad indhaha u kala qaadaysaa? Oo ma anigaad xukun ila soo gelaysaa?
Also — on this Thou hast opened Thine eyes, And dost bring me into judgment with Thee.
4 Bal yaa wax wasakh ah wax nadiif ah ka soo bixin kara? Xataa mid qudha oo saas yeeli karaa ma jiro.
Who giveth a clean thing out of an unclean? not one.
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.
If determined are his days, The number of his months [are] with Thee, His limit Thou hast made, And he passeth not over;
6 Bal ha nastee isaga ka sii jeeso, Ilaa uu cimrigiisa ka dhammaysanayo sida shaqaale maalintiisa u dhammaysto.
Look away from off him that he may cease, Till he enjoy as an hireling his day.
7 Waayo, geed dheer haddii la gooyo rajuu leeyahay inuu mar kale soo biqlo, Iyo in laantiisa curdanka ahu ayan joogsan.
For there is of a tree hope, if it be cut down, That again it doth change, That its tender branch doth not cease.
8 In kastoo xididkiisu uu ciidda ku dhex gaboobo, Oo ay jirriddiisiina dhulka dhexdiisa ku dhimato,
If its root becometh old in the earth, And its stem doth die in the dust,
9 Biyaha urkooda ayuu ku biqli doonaa, Oo waxaa ka soo bixi doona laamo curdan ah oo dhalato la moodo.
From the fragrance of water it doth flourish, And hath made a crop as a plant.
10 Laakiinse ninku wuu dhintaa, wuuna iska baabba'aa, Oo ninka naftu waa ka dhacdaa, oo bal xaggee buu joogaa isagu?
And a man dieth, and becometh weak, And man expireth, and where [is] he?
11 Biyuhu badda way ka dhammaadaan, Oo webiguna waa gudhaa oo waa iska engegaa,
Waters have gone away from a sea, And a river becometh waste and dry.
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.
And man hath lain down, and riseth not, Till the wearing out of the heavens they awake not, Nor are roused from their 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)
O that in Sheol Thou wouldest conceal me, Hide me till the turning of Thine anger, Set for me a limit, and remember me. (Sheol h7585)
14 Mar hadduu nin dhinto, miyuu soo noolaanayaa? Maalmaha dadaalkayga oo dhan waan iska sugi lahaa Ilaa uu isbeddelkaygu yimaado.
If a man dieth — doth he revive? All days of my warfare I wait, till my change come.
15 Waad ii yeedhi lahayd, oo anna waan kuu jawaabi lahaa; Oo adna waxaa damac kaa geli lahaa shuqulkii gacmahaaga.
Thou dost call, and I — I answer Thee; To the work of Thy hands Thou hast desire.
16 Laakiinse haatan waad tirisaa tallaabooyinkayga, Balse miyaadan dembigayga isha ku hayn?
But now, my steps Thou numberest, Thou dost not watch over my sin.
17 Xadgudubkaygii kolay baa lagu xidhay, Oo xumaantaydiina meel baad ku dhuujisay.
Sealed up in a bag [is] my transgression, And Thou sewest up mine iniquity.
18 Oo sida xaqiiqada ah buurtii dhacdaa waa baabba'daa, Oo dhagaxiina meeshiisii wuu ka dhaqaaqaa.
And yet, a falling mountain wasteth away, And a rock is removed from its place.
19 Biyuhu dhagaxyaday lisaan, Oo daadkooduna wuxuu qaada ciidda dhulka, Oo adna sidaasoo kalaad u baabbi'isaa binu-aadmiga rajadiisa.
Stones have waters worn away, Their outpourings wash away the dust of earth, And the hope of man Thou hast destroyed.
20 Weligaaba waad ka adkaataa isaga, oo isna wuu iska baxaa, Oo jaahiisa waad beddeshaa, oo waad iska dirtaa isaga.
Thou prevailest [over] him for ever, and he goeth, He is changing his countenance, And Thou sendest him away.
21 Wiilashiisa waa la sharfaa, laakiinse isagu waxba kama oga; Oo haddana hoos baa loo ridaa, laakiinse isagu waxba kama garto iyaga.
Honoured are his sons, and he knoweth not; And they are little, and he attendeth not to them.
22 Laakiinse xanuunka jidhkiisa oo keliya buu gartaa, Oo nafsaddiisa oo keliya ayuu u baroortaa.
Only — his flesh for him is pained, And his soul for him doth mourn.'
