Ayuub 21
1 Markaasaa Ayuub u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
And Job answereth and saith: —
2 Maqla oo warkayga aad u dhegaysta, Oo tanuna ha noqoto wixii aad igu qalbiqabowjisaan.
Hear ye diligently my word, 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 — ye may deride.
4 Balse anigu ma dad baan ka ashtakoonayaa? Maxaan u ahaan waayay mid aan dulqaadan?
I — to man [is] my complaint? and if [so], wherefore May not my temper become short?
5 Bal i eega, oo yaaba, Oo afkiinna gacanta saara.
Turn unto me, and be astonished, And put hand to mouth.
6 Oo xataa markaan soo xusuusto waan welwelaa, Oo jidhkaygana waa hoog iyo ba'.
Yea, if I have remembered, then I have been troubled. And my flesh hath taken fright.
7 Bal maxay kuwa sharka ahu u noolaanayaan? Oo ay u gaboobayaan? Balse maxay xoog badan u yeeshaan?
Wherefore do the wicked live? They have become old, Yea, 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 upon them.
10 Dibidoodu way dhalaan, oo marnaba madhalays ma noqdaan, Sacyahooduna way dhalaan, dhicis mana keenaan.
His bullock hath eaten corn, and doth not loath. His cow bringeth forth safely, And doth not miscarry.
11 Dhallaankooda dibadday u baxshaan sidii adhi oo kale, Oo carruurtooduna way cayaaraan.
They send forth as a flock their sucklings, 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 an organ.
13 Cimrigooda waxay ku dhammaystaan barwaaqo, Oo dabadeedna daqiiqad ayay She'ool ku dhaadhacaan. (Sheol h7585)
They wear out in good their days, And in a moment [to] Sheol go down. (Sheol h7585)
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 Thy 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.
Lo, not in their hand [is] their good, (The counsel of the wicked Hath 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 oft is the lamp of the wicked extinguished, And come on them doth their calamity? Pangs He apportioneth 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 hurricane hath 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 layeth up for his sons his sorrow, He giveth recompense unto him — and he knoweth.
20 Indhihiisu ha arkeen halligaaddiisa, Oo isagu ha cabbo Ilaaha Qaadirka ah cadhadiisa.
His own eyes see his destruction, And of the wrath of the Mighty he drinketh.
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.
To God doth [one] teach knowledge, And He the high doth judge?
23 Mid baa dhinta isagoo xooggiisu ku dhan yahay, Oo istareexsan oo xasilloon,
This [one] dieth 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 his bones doth moisten.
25 Oo mid kalena wuxuu ku dhintaa naf qadhaadh, Isagoo aan weligiis wanaag dhedhemin.
And this [one] dieth with a bitter soul, And have not eaten with gladness.
26 Habase yeeshee isku si bay ciidda u dhex jiifsadaan, Oo dirxi baa korkooda daboola.
Together — on the dust they lie down, And the worm doth cover them over.
27 Bal eega, anigu waan ogahay fikirradiinna, Iyo xeesha aad qaldan igu hindisaysaan.
Lo, I have known your thoughts, And the devices against me ye do wrongfully.
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 noble? And where the tent — The tabernacles of the wicked?'
29 Miyeydaan weyddiin kuwa jidka mara? Oo miyeydaan garanayn calaamooyinkooda?
Have ye not asked those passing by the way? And their signs do ye not know?
30 Iyo in ninkii sharrow ah loo celiyey maalinta belaayada? Iyo in hore loogu sii kaxaynayo maalinta cadhada?
That to a day of calamity is the wicked spared. To a day of wrath they are brought.
31 Bal yaa jidkiisa isaga hortiisa ugu caddayn doona? Oo bal yaa isaga ka abaalmarin doona wixii uu sameeyey?
Who doth declare to his face his way? And [for] that which he hath done, Who doth give recompence to him?
32 Laakiinse isaga waxaa loo qaadi doonaa xabaasha, Oo qabrigiisa waa la ilaalin doonaa.
And he — to the graves he is brought. And over the heap a watch is kept.
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 have been the clods of the valley, And after him every man he draweth, And before him there is no numbering.
34 Haddaba bal maxaad si aan waxba tarayn iigu qalbiqabowjinaysaan, Maxaa yeelay, jawaabihiinnii been oo keliya ayaa ku hadhay?
And how do ye comfort me [with] vanity, And in your answers hath been left trespass?
