1 Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
But Job answered and said:
2 Maqla oo warkayga aad u dhegaysta, Oo tanuna ha noqoto wixii aad igu qalbiqabowjisaan.
Hear attentively my words, And let this be your consolation.
3 Bal mar ii oggolaada aan hadlee, Oo kolkii aan hadlo dabadeed iska sii majaajilooda.
Bear with me, that I may speak; And after I have spoken, mock on!
4 Balse anigu ma dad baan ka ashtakoonayaa? Maxaan u ahaan waayay mid aan dulqaadan?
Is my complaint concerning man? Why then should I not be angry?
5 Bal i eega, oo yaaba, Oo afkiinna gacanta saara.
Look upon me, and be astonished, And lay your hand upon your mouth!
6 Oo xataa markaan soo xusuusto waan welwelaa, Oo jidhkaygana waa hoog iyo ba'.
When I think of it, I am confounded; Trembling taketh hold of my flesh.
7 Bal maxay kuwa sharka ahu u noolaanayaan? Oo ay u gaboobayaan? Balse maxay xoog badan u yeeshaan?
Why is it that the wicked live, Grow old, yea, become mighty in substance?
8 Farcankoodu iyagoo la jooga hortooduu ku xoogaystaa, Oo dhashoodiina hortooday ku dhisan yihiin.
Their children are established in their sight 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 in peace, without fear, And the rod of God cometh not upon them.
10 Dibidoodu way dhalaan, oo marnaba madhalays ma noqdaan, Sacyahooduna way dhalaan, dhicis mana keenaan.
Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; Their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf.
11 Dhallaankooda dibadday u baxshaan sidii adhi oo kale, Oo carruurtooduna way cayaaraan.
They send forth their little ones like a flock, And their children dance.
12 Waxay ku gabyaan daf iyo kataarad, Oo dhawaaqa biibiilaha way ku reyreeyaan.
They sing to the timbrel and harp, And rejoice at the sound of the pipe.
13 Cimrigooda waxay ku dhammaystaan barwaaqo, Oo dabadeedna daqiiqad ayay She'ool ku dhaadhacaan. (Sheol h7585)
They spend their days in prosperity, And in a moment go down to the under-world. (Sheol h7585)
14 Laakiin waxay Ilaah ku yidhaahdeen, War naga tag, Waayo, dooni mayno aqoonta jidadkaaga.
And yet they say unto God, “Depart from us! We desire not the knowledge of thy ways!
15 Waa maxay Ilaaha Qaadirka ah, oo aan u adeegayno? Balse maxaa faa'iido ah oo aannu ka helaynaa, haddaan isaga u tukanno?
Who is the Almighty, that we should serve him? And what will it profit us, if we pray to him?”
16 Bal eeg, barwaaqadoodii gacantooda kuma jirto, Kuwa sharka ahna taladoodu way iga fog tahay.
[[Ye say, ]] “Lo! their prosperity is not secure in their hands! Far from me be the conduct of the wicked!”
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 it, that the lamp of the wicked is put out? And that destruction cometh upon them, And that He dispenseth to them tribulations in his anger?
18 Oo ay sababtaas aawadeed u noqdaan sidii xaab dabayl ka horreeya, Iyo sidii buunshe uu duufaanu kaxeeyo?
How often are they as stubble before the wind, Or as chaff, which the whirlwind carrieth away?
19 Idinku waxaad tidhaahdaan, Ilaah xumaantiisii wuxuu u kaydiyaa sharrowga carruurtiisa. Haddaba isagu sharrowga ha ugu abaalgudo si uu laftigiisu u ogaado aawadeed.
“But” [[say ye]] “God layeth up his iniquity for his children.” Let him requite the offender, and let him feel it!
20 Indhihiisu ha arkeen halligaaddiisa, Oo isagu ha cabbo Ilaaha Qaadirka ah cadhadiisa.
Let his own eyes see his destruction, And let him drink of the wrath of the Almighty!
21 Waayo, waa maxay farxadda uu reerkiisa ka helo, Markii cimrigiisa dhexda laga gooyo?
For what concern hath he for his household after him, When the number of his own months is completed?
22 Bal ma Ilaah baa wax la baraa? Maxaa yeelay, isagaa xukuma xataa kuwa sare.
Who then shall impart knowledge to God, —To him that judgeth the highest?
23 Mid baa dhinta isagoo xooggiisu ku dhan yahay, Oo istareexsan oo xasilloon,
One dieth in the fulness of his prosperity, Being wholly at ease and quiet;
24 Oo aad u buuran, Oo dhuuxa lafihiisuna qoyan yahay.
His sides are full of fat, And his bones moist with marrow.
25 Oo mid kalena wuxuu ku dhintaa naf qadhaadh, Isagoo aan weligiis wanaag dhedhemin.
Another dieth in bitterness of soul, And hath not tasted pleasure.
26 Habase yeeshee isku si bay ciidda u dhex jiifsadaan, Oo dirxi baa korkooda daboola.
Alike they lie down in the dust, And the worms cover them.
27 Bal eega, anigu waan ogahay fikirradiinna, Iyo xeesha aad qaldan igu hindisaysaan.
Behold, I know your thoughts, And the devices by which ye wrong me.
28 Waayo, waxaad tidhaahdaan, War meeh gurigii amiirku? Oo meeday teendhadii sharrowgu ku dhex hoyan jiray?
For ye say, “Where is the house of the oppressor, And where the dwelling-places of the wicked?”
29 Miyeydaan weyddiin kuwa jidka mara? Oo miyeydaan garanayn calaamooyinkooda?
Have ye never inquired of travellers, And do ye not know their tokens,
30 Iyo in ninkii sharrow ah loo celiyey maalinta belaayada? Iyo in hore loogu sii kaxaynayo maalinta cadhada?
That the wicked is spared in the day of destruction, And that he is borne to his grave in the day of wrath?
31 Bal yaa jidkiisa isaga hortiisa ugu caddayn doona? Oo bal yaa isaga ka abaalmarin doona wixii uu sameeyey?
Who will charge him with his conduct to his face, And who will requite him for the evil he hath done?
32 Laakiinse isaga waxaa loo qaadi doonaa xabaasha, Oo qabrigiisa waa la ilaalin doonaa.
Even this man is borne with honor to the grave; Yea, he watcheth over his tomb.
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.
Sweet to him are the sods of the valley: And all men move after him, As multitudes without number before him.
34 Haddaba bal maxaad si aan waxba tarayn iigu qalbiqabowjinaysaan, Maxaa yeelay, jawaabihiinnii been oo keliya ayaa ku hadhay?
Why then do ye offer your vain consolations? Your answers continue false.
