< Ayuub 21 >
1 Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And Job answers and says:
2 Maqla oo warkayga aad u dhegaysta, Oo tanuna ha noqoto wixii aad igu qalbiqabowjisaan.
“Hear my word diligently, And this is your consolation.
3 Bal mar ii oggolaada aan hadlee, Oo kolkii aan hadlo dabadeed iska sii majaajilooda.
Bear with me, and I speak, And after my speaking—you may deride.
4 Balse anigu ma dad baan ka ashtakoonayaa? Maxaan u ahaan waayay mid aan dulqaadan?
[Is] my complaint [against] man? And if [so], why may my temper not become short?
5 Bal i eega, oo yaaba, Oo afkiinna gacanta saara.
Turn to me, and be astonished, And put hand to mouth.
6 Oo xataa markaan soo xusuusto waan welwelaa, Oo jidhkaygana waa hoog iyo ba'.
Indeed, if I have remembered, then I have been troubled. And my flesh has taken fright.
7 Bal maxay kuwa sharka ahu u noolaanayaan? Oo ay u gaboobayaan? Balse maxay xoog badan u yeeshaan?
Why do the wicked live? They have become old, Indeed, they have been mighty in wealth.
8 Farcankoodu iyagoo la jooga hortooduu ku xoogaystaa, Oo dhashoodiina hortooday ku dhisan yihiin.
Their seed is established, Before their face with them, And their offspring before their eyes.
9 Reerahoodu cabsi way ka ammaan galeen, Oo ushii Ilaahna iyaga ma kor saarna.
Their houses [are] peace without fear, Nor [is] a rod of God on them.
10 Dibidoodu way dhalaan, oo marnaba madhalays ma noqdaan, Sacyahooduna way dhalaan, dhicis mana keenaan.
His bullock breeds without fail. His cow brings forth safely, and does not miscarry.
11 Dhallaankooda dibadday u baxshaan sidii adhi oo kale, Oo carruurtooduna way cayaaraan.
They send forth their sucklings as a flock, And their children skip,
12 Waxay ku gabyaan daf iyo kataarad, Oo dhawaaqa biibiilaha way ku reyreeyaan.
They lift [themselves] up at timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of a pipe.
13 Cimrigooda waxay ku dhammaystaan barwaaqo, Oo dabadeedna daqiiqad ayay She'ool ku dhaadhacaan. (Sheol )
They wear out their days in good, And in a moment go down [to] Sheol. (Sheol )
14 Laakiin waxay Ilaah ku yidhaahdeen, War naga tag, Waayo, dooni mayno aqoonta jidadkaaga.
And they say to God, Turn aside from us, And the knowledge of Your ways We have not desired.
15 Waa maxay Ilaaha Qaadirka ah, oo aan u adeegayno? Balse maxaa faa'iido ah oo aannu ka helaynaa, haddaan isaga u tukanno?
What [is] the Mighty One that we serve Him? And what do we profit when we meet with Him?
16 Bal eeg, barwaaqadoodii gacantooda kuma jirto, Kuwa sharka ahna taladoodu way iga fog tahay.
Behold, their good [is] not in their hand (The counsel of the wicked Has been far from me).
17 Immisa jeer baa laambadda kuwa sharka ah la demiyaa? Oo immisa jeer baa belaayo ku kor degtaa? Oo immisa jeer baa Ilaah isagoo cadhaysan xanuun u qaybiyaa?
How often is the lamp of the wicked extinguished, And their calamity comes on them? He apportions pangs in His anger.
18 Oo ay sababtaas aawadeed u noqdaan sidii xaab dabayl ka horreeya, Iyo sidii buunshe uu duufaanu kaxeeyo?
They are as straw before wind, And as chaff a windstorm has stolen away,
19 Idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Ilaah xumaantiisii wuxuu u kaydiyaa sharrowga carruurtiisa. Haddaba isagu sharrowga ha ugu abaalgudo si uu laftigiisu u ogaado aawadeed.
God lays up for his sons his sorrow, He gives repayment to him—and he knows.
20 Indhihiisu ha arkeen halligaaddiisa, Oo isagu ha cabbo Ilaaha Qaadirka ah cadhadiisa.
His own eyes see his destruction, And he drinks of the wrath of the Mighty.
21 Waayo, waa maxay farxadda uu reerkiisa ka helo, Markii cimrigiisa dhexda laga gooyo?
For what [is] his delight in his house after him, And the number of his months cut off?
22 Bal ma Ilaah baa wax la baraa? Maxaa yeelay, isagaa xukuma xataa kuwa sare.
Does [one] teach knowledge to God, Since He judges [those] on high?
23 Mid baa dhinta isagoo xooggiisu ku dhan yahay, Oo istareexsan oo xasilloon,
This [one] dies in his perfect strength, Wholly at ease and quiet.
24 Oo aad u buuran, Oo dhuuxa lafihiisuna qoyan yahay.
His breasts have been full of milk, And marrow moistens his bones.
25 Oo mid kalena wuxuu ku dhintaa naf qadhaadh, Isagoo aan weligiis wanaag dhedhemin.
And this [one] dies with a bitter soul, And has not eaten with gladness.
26 Habase yeeshee isku si bay ciidda u dhex jiifsadaan, Oo dirxi baa korkooda daboola.
Together they lie down on the dust, And the worm covers them over.
27 Bal eega, anigu waan ogahay fikirradiinna, Iyo xeesha aad qaldan igu hindisaysaan.
Behold, I have known your thoughts, And the schemes against me you do wrongfully.
28 Waayo, waxaad tidhaahdaan, War meeh gurigii amiirku? Oo meeday teendhadii sharrowgu ku dhex hoyan jiray?
For you say, Where [is] the house of the noble? And where the tent—the dwelling places of the wicked?
29 Miyeydaan weyddiin kuwa jidka mara? Oo miyeydaan garanayn calaamooyinkooda?
Have you not asked those passing by the way? And do you not know their signs?
30 Iyo in ninkii sharrow ah loo celiyey maalinta belaayada? Iyo in hore loogu sii kaxaynayo maalinta cadhada?
That the wicked is spared to a day of calamity. They are brought to a day of wrath.
31 Bal yaa jidkiisa isaga hortiisa ugu caddayn doona? Oo bal yaa isaga ka abaalmarin doona wixii uu sameeyey?
Who declares his way to his face? And [for] that which he has done, Who gives repayment to him?
32 Laakiinse isaga waxaa loo qaadi doonaa xabaasha, Oo qabrigiisa waa la ilaalin doonaa.
And he is brought to the graves, And a watch is kept over the heap.
33 Waxaa isaga u macaanaan doonta ciidda dooxada, Oo dadka oo dhammuna isagay soo daba kici doonaan, Sida kuwii aan tirada lahayn oo isagii ka horreeyeyba ay u dhinteen.
The clods of the valley have been sweet to him, And he draws every man after him, And there is no numbering before him.
34 Haddaba bal maxaad si aan waxba tarayn iigu qalbiqabowjinaysaan, Maxaa yeelay, jawaabihiinnii been oo keliya ayaa ku hadhay?
And how do you comfort me [with] vanity, And trespass has been left in your answers?”
