Ayuub 17
1 Ruuxaygii waa tabardarnaaday, cimrigaygiina waa dhammaaday, Oo qabrigu waa ii diyaar.
My spirit is crushed; my life is extinguished; the grave is ready for me.
2 Sida xaqiiqada ah waxaa ila jooga majaajilowyo, Oo ishayduna waxay fiiro u leedahay ka cadhaysiintooda.
Mockers surround me. I see how bitterly they ridicule me.
3 Haddaba rahaamad i sii, oo dammiin ii noqo; Bal yaa jooga oo gacanta dhaar iigu dhiibaya?
God, you need to put down a pledge for me with yourself, for who else will be my guarantor?
4 Waayo, qalbigooda waxgarashadii waad ka qarisay, Oo sidaas daraaddeed iyaga ma aad sarraysiin doontid.
You have closed their minds to understanding, so do not let them win!
5 Kii saaxiibbadiis u yeedha inay maal ka qaybgeliyaan, Carruurtiisu way indha beeli doonaan.
They betray friends to gain benefit for themselves and their children suffer for it.
6 Oo weliba isagu wuxuu iga dhigay wax ay dadku ku halqabsadaan, Oo waxaan noqday mid ay dadku candhuuf ku tufaan.
He has made me a proverb of ridicule among the people; they spit in my face.
7 Indhahaygii murug bay la arag daranyihiin, Oo xubnahaygii oo dhammuna waxay noqdeen sidii hoos oo kale.
My eyes are worn out from crying and my body is a shadow of its former self.
8 Dadkii toolmoonu waxan way la yaabayaan, Oo kan aan xaqa qabinuna wuxuu ku kacayaa cibaadalaawaha.
People who think they are good are shocked to see me. Those who are innocent are troubled by the godless.
9 Laakiinse kii xaq ahu jidkiisa wuu ku sii adkaysan doonaa, Oo kii gacmo nadiifsan lahuna aad iyo aad buu u sii xoogaysan doonaa.
Those who are right keep going, and those whose hands are clean grow stronger and stronger.
10 Laakiinse idinku dhammaantiin bal soo noqda oo ii kaalaya, Oo anna nin xigmad leh idinkama heli doono.
Why don't you come back and repeat again what you've been saying?—yet I still won't find a wise man among you!
11 Cimrigaygii waa dhammaaday, Oo qasdigaygii iyo fikirradii qalbigayguba waa baabbe'een.
My life is over. My plans are gone. My heart is broken.
12 Habeenka waxay u beddelaan maalin, Oo waxay yidhaahdaan, Iftiinku waa u dhow yahay gudcurka.
They turn night into day, and say that daylight is close to darkness.
13 Haddaan She'ool u rajeeyo sida gurigaygii oo kale, Ama haddaan gogoshayda gudcurka ku dhex fidsado, (Sheol h7585)
What am I looking for? To make my home in Sheol, to make my bed in darkness? (Sheol h7585)
14 Oo haddaan qudhunka ku idhaahdo, Adigu waxaad tahay aabbahay, Oo aan dirxigana ku idhaahdo, Adigu waxaad tahay hooyaday iyo walaashay,
Should I call the grave my father, and the maggot my mother or my sister?
15 Bal markaas meeday rajadaydu? Oo bal yaase rajadayda arki doona?
So then where is my hope? Can anyone see any hope for me?
