Ayuub 15
1 Markaasaa Eliifas kii reer Teemaan isagii u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,
2 War nin xigmad lahu miyuu ku jawaabaa aqoon aan waxba tarayn, Oo bal miyuu calooshiisa ka buuxiyaa dabaysha bari?
Should a wise man answer with windy knowledge, and fill his belly with the east wind,
3 Miyayse ku habboon tahay inuu ku xaajowdo hadal aan faa'iido lahayn, Amase hadallo uusan innaba wanaag ku samayn karin?
Reasoning with unprofitable talk, and with speeches which do no good?
4 Cabsida waad baabbi'isaa, Oo cibaadadana Ilaah hortiisa waad ka joojisaa.
Yea, thou makest piety of none effect, and restrainest meditation before God.
5 Waayo, afkaaga waxaa wax bara xumaantaada, Oo waxaad doorataa carrabka khaa'inka.
For thy mouth uttereth thine iniquity, and thou hast chosen the tongue of the crafty.
6 Haddaba waxaa ku xukuma afkaaga oo aniga ma aha; Hubaal bushimahaaga qudhooda ayaa kugu marag fura.
Thine own mouth condemneth thee, and not I; and thy lips testify against thee.
7 War ma ninkii binu-aadmiga ugu hor dhashaad tahay? Mase buuraha hortood baad soo dhalatay?
Art thou the first man that was born? and wast thou brought forth before the hills?
8 War talada qarsoon oo Ilaah miyaad maqashay? Oo nafsaddaada miyaad xigmad ula hadhay?
Hast thou listened in the secret council of God? And hast thou absorbed wisdom for thyself?
9 War maxaad og tahay, oo aannan annagu ogayn? Oo bal maxaad garanaysaa, oo aannan garanayn?
What knowest thou that we know not? [what] understandest thou which is not in us?
10 Waxaa nala jooga rag cirro leh iyo odayaal da' weyn, Oo aabbahaa ka sii fil weyn.
Both the greyheaded and the aged are with us, older than thy father.
11 Ma kugu yar yihiin qalbiqabowjiska Ilaah Iyo erayga sida qabow kuula macaamiloodaa?
Are the consolations of God too small for thee? and the word gently spoken to thee?
12 Bal maxaa qalbigaagu kuu fogeeyaa? Maxaase indhahaagu u gabgab leeyihiin?
Why doth thy heart carry thee away? and why do thine eyes wink?
13 Oo aad ruuxaaga Ilaah ugu soo jeedisaa, Oo erayo caynkaas ah aad afkaaga uga soo daysaa?
That thou turnest thy spirit against God, and lettest words go out of thy mouth?
14 Bal binu-aadmigu muxuu yahay oo uu daahir ahaado? Kii naagu dhashayse muxuu yahay oo uu xaq ahaado?
What is man, that he should be pure? and he that is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?
15 Bal eeg, Ilaah ma aamino kuwiisa quduuska ah, Oo xataa samooyinku hortiisa daahir kuma aha.
Behold, he putteth no trust in his holy ones, and the heavens are not pure in his sight:
16 Haddaba bal sidee buu u daahir ahaanayaa nin karaahiyo iyo wasakhaan ah, Oo dembiga sida biyo u cabbaa!
How much less the abominable and corrupt, — man, that drinketh unrighteousness like water!
17 Bal i maqal, wax baan ku tusayaa, Oo wixii aan arkay oo dhan waan kuu sheegayaa;
I will shew thee, listen to me; and what I have seen I will declare;
18 (Kuwaasoo rag xigmad lahu ay awowayaashood ka heleen, Oo ayan qarin,
Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hidden;
19 Kuwaasoo dalka keligood la siiyey, Oo uusan shisheeye innaba dhex mari jirin.)
Unto whom alone the earth was given, and no stranger passed among them.
20 Ninkii shar ahu sida naag u foolato oo kale ayuu u xanuunsadaa cimrigiisa oo dhan, Intaas oo ah sannadihii loo kaydiyey kuwa wax dulma.
All his days the wicked man is tormented, and numbered years are allotted to the violent.
21 Oo sanqadh cabsi leh ayaa dhegihiisa gasha, Oo wakhtiga barwaaqadana baabbi'iyuhu waa u soo iman doonaa.
The sound of terrors is in his ears: in prosperity the destroyer cometh upon him.
22 Isagu ma rumaysto inuu gudcurka ka noqon doono, Iyo inay seeftu isaga sugayso.
He believeth not that he shall return out of darkness, and he is singled out for the sword.
23 Meel meel buu cunto u wareegaa isagoo leh, Meeday? Oo wuxuu og yahay inay maalinta gudcurku isaga u diyaar tahay.
He wandereth abroad for bread, — where may it be? He knoweth that the day of darkness is ready at his hand.
24 Waxaa isaga bajiya dhib iyo cidhiidhi, Oo isagay uga adkaadaan sida boqor dagaal isu diyaariyey,
Distress and anguish make him afraid; they prevail against him, as a king ready for the battle.
25 Maxaa yeelay, isagu gacantiisuu Ilaah ku taagay, Oo Ilaaha Qaadirka ah kibir buu ku caasiyaa.
For he hath stretched out his hand against God, and strengthened himself against the Almighty:
26 Wuxuu kula ordaa madax adag Iyo gaashaammadiisa biro ku taagan yihiin.
He runneth against him, with [outstretched] neck, with the thick bosses of his bucklers;
27 Maxaa yeelay, wejiga ayuu ka cayilay, Oo bowdooyinkana baruur buu ku yeeshay,
For he hath covered his face with his fatness, and gathered fat upon [his] flanks.
28 Oo wuxuu degay magaalooyin baabba' ah, Iyo guryo aan lagu hoyan, Oo u diyaarsan inay tuulmooyin burbur ah noqdaan.
And he dwelleth in desolate cities, in houses that no man inhabiteth, which are destined to become heaps.
29 Isagu taajir noqon maayo, oo maalkiisuna sii raagi maayo, Oo dhulkana ku sii waari maayo.
He shall not become rich, neither shall his substance continue, and their possessions shall not extend upon the earth.
30 Isagu marnaba gudcur ka bixi maayo, Oo laamihiisa olol baa qallajin doona, Oo neefta afkiisa ayaa qaadi doonta.
He shall not depart out of darkness; the flame shall dry up his branches; and by the breath of his mouth shall he go away.
31 Yuusan wax aan waxba tarayn isku hallayn, isagoo iskhiyaaneeya, Waayo, wax aan waxba tarayn ayaa abaalgudkiisa ahaan doona.
Let him not trust in vanity: he is deceived, for vanity shall be his recompense;
32 Wakhtigiisii ka hor buu dhammaan doonaa, Oo laantiisuna ma cagaaroobi doonto.
It shall be complete before his day, and his branch shall not be green.
33 Sida canabka ayuu midhihiisa ceedhiin iska ridi doonaa, Oo sida saytuunka ayuu ubaxiisa iska daadin doonaa.
He shall shake off his unripe grapes as a vine, and shall cast his flower as an olive.
34 Waayo, ururka cibaadalaawayaashu wuxuu ahaan doonaa wax aan waxba dhalin, Oo teendhooyinka kuwa laaluushka qaatana dab baa baabbi'in doona.
For the family of the ungodly shall be barren, and fire shall consume the tents of bribery.
35 Iyagu waxay uuraystaan belaayo, xumaanna way dhalaan, Oo calooshooduna waxay diyaarisaa khiyaano.
They conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity, and their belly prepareth deceit.
