Ayuub 16
1 Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Then responded Job, and said: —
2 Anigu waan maqlay waxyaalo badan oo caynkaas ah. Idinku dhammaantiin waxaad tihiin qalbiqabowjiyayaal qalqalloocan.
I have heard many such things, Wearisome comforters, are ye all!
3 Hadal dabayl ahu miyuu dhammaadaa? Balse maxaa kaa dhirfinaya oo aad u jawaabaysaa?
Is there to be an end to windy words? Or what so strongly exciteth thee, that thou must respond?
4 Haddii naftiinnu ahaan lahayd naftayda, Anigu waan u hadli kari lahaa sidiinna oo kale, Oo hadal waan idinku kor tuuli kari lahaa, Oo madaxaygana waan idinku ruxruxi kari lahaa.
I also, like you, could speak, —If your soul were in the place of my soul, I could string together words against you, and could therewith shake over you my head.
5 Laakiinse anigu afkayga waan idinku xoogayn lahaa, Oo tacsiyaynta bushimahayguna way idin qalbi qabowjin lahayd.
I could make you determined, by my mouth, and then my lip-solace should restrain you.
6 Anigu haddaan hadlo xanuunkaygu igama yaraado, Oo haddaan iska aamusona miyaan in ka yar xanuunsadaa?
Though I do speak, unassuaged is my stinging pain, —And, if I forbear, of what am I relieved?
7 Laakiinse haatan wuu i daaliyey, Oo guutadaydii oo dhan cidlo baad ka dhigtay.
But, now, hath he wearied me, thou hast destroyed all my family;
8 Waad i qabsatay, taasuna waa marag iga gees ah, Oo waxaa igu kaca macluulkayga, oo fool ka fool ayuu igu markhaati furaa.
And, having captured me, it hath served, as a witness; and so my wasting away hath risen up against me, in my face, it answereth.
9 Isagoo cadhaysan ayuu i dildillaacsaday, oo wuu i silciyey, Wuuna igu ilko jirriqsaday, Oo cadowgaygii indhuhuu igu caddeeyey.
His anger, hath torn and persecuted me, He hath gnashed upon me with his teeth, Mine adversary, hath sharpened his eyes for me.
10 Iyagu afkay ii kala qaadeen, Oo quudhsasho ayay dhabanka igaga dharbaaxeen, Oo dhammaantoodna way isu kay wada urursadaan.
They have gaped upon me with their mouth, With reproach, have they smitten my cheek, Together, against me, have they closed their ranks.
11 Ilaah wuxuu gacantooda i geliyaa cibaadalaawayaasha, Oo wuxuu igu dhex tuuraa gacmaha kuwa sharka ah.
GOD doth abandon me to him that is perverse, and, into the hands of the lawless, he throweth me headlong.
12 Anigoo iska istareexsan ayuu i kala jejebiyey, Oo intuu surka i qabtay ayuu i kala burburiyey, Oo weliba intuu meel i qotomiyey ayuu goolibaadh iga dhigtay.
At ease, was I when he shattered me, Yea he seized me by my neck, and dashed me in pieces, then set me up for himself as a mark:
13 Qaansoolayaashiisii ayaa i hareereeya, Oo kelyahaygii ayuu kala googooyaa, Oo xammeetidaydiina dhulkuu ku daadshaa.
His archers came round against me, He clave asunder my reins, and spared not, He poured out, on the earth, my gall:
14 Isagu wuu i jejebiyaa oo nabarba nabar buu iiga kor mariyaa; Oo sidii nin xoog badan ayuu orod igula soo kacaa.
He made a breach in me, breach upon breach, He ran upon me, like a mighty man.
15 Korkayga waxaan ku tolay joonyad, Oo xooggaygiina ciiddaan ku riday.
Sackcloth, sewed I on my skin, and rolled—in the dust—my horn:
16 Wejigaygii oohin buu la beddelmay, Oo indhaha daboolkoodana waxaa ii jooga hooskii dhimashada,
My face, is reddened from weeping, and, upon mine eyelashes, is the death-shade: —
17 In kastoo aanay xaqdarro ku jirin gacmahayga, Oo uu baryootankayguna daahir yahay.
Though no violence was in my hands, and, my prayer, was pure.
18 Dhulkow, dhiiggayga ha qarinin, Oo qayladayduna yaanay meelay ku nasato lahaan.
O earth! do not cover my blood, and let there be no place for mine outcry.
19 Oo hadda bal eeg, markhaatigaygii wuxuu joogaa samada, Oo kii ii dammiintaana xagga saruu joogaa.
Even now, lo! in the heavens, is my witness,
20 Saaxiibbaday way igu qoslaan, Laakiinse indhahaygu ilmo bay u daadiyaan xag Ilaah.
And, he that voucheth for me is on high. My friends are, they who scorn me, Unto GOD, hath mine eye shed tears: —
21 Bal muu jiro mid dadka Ilaah ula hadla, Siduu nin deriskiisa ugu hadlo oo kale.
That one might plead, for a man, with GOD, —Even a son of man, for his friend!
22 Waayo, markii dhawr sannadood dhaafaan, Waxaan mari doonaa jidka aanan mar kale dib uga soo noqonayn.
When, a few years, come, then, by a path by which I shall not return, shall I depart.
