Ayuub 22
1 Markaasaa Eliifas oo ahaa reer Teemaan u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered,
2 Ma nin baa Ilaah wax u tari kara? Hubaal kii xigmad lahu isagaa wax isu tara.
“Can a man be profitable to God? Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.
3 Balse ma Ilaaha Qaadirka ah baa xaqnimadaada ku farxa? Mase faa'iido bay u tahay isaga inaad jidkaaga qummaatisid?
Is it any pleasure to the Almighty that you are righteous? Or does it benefit him that you make your ways perfect?
4 War ma cabsidaada daraaddeed buu kuu canaantaa? Oo saas daraaddeed miyuu dacwad kuula galaa?
Is it for your piety that he reproves you, that he enters with you into judgment?
5 Sow sharkaagu ma badna? Xumaatooyinkaagu dhammaad ma laha.
Is not your wickedness great? Neither is there any end to your iniquities.
6 Waayo, sababla'aan baad walaalkaa rahaamad uga qaadatay, Oo kuwii arradnaana dharkoodii baad ka mudhuxsatay.
For you have taken pledges from your brother for nothing, and stripped the naked of their clothing.
7 Kii daallanaana ma aadan siin biyo uu cabbo, Oo kii gaajaysnaana cunto baad ka hagratay.
You have not given water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.
8 Laakiinse ninkii xoog badnaa isagaa dhulka haystay; Oo ninkii sharaf lahaana isagaa dalka degganaa.
But as for the mighty man, he had the earth. The honorable man, he lived in it.
9 Carmallada baad gacan madhnaan ku eriday, Oo agoonta gacmahoodiina waa la jebiyey.
You have sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.
10 Sidaas daraaddeed waxaa hareerahaaga ku wareegsan dabinno, Oo waxaa ku dhibaya cabsi kedis ah,
Therefore snares are around you. Sudden fear troubles you,
11 Ama gudcur aadan waxba ku arki karin, Oo waxaa ku qariya biyo aad u badan.
or darkness, so that you can not see, and floods of waters cover you.
12 War sow Ilaah kuma jiro samada sare? Oo bal eega xiddigaha dheeraantooda iyo siday u sarreeyaan!
“Is not God in the heights of heaven? See the height of the stars, how high they are!
13 Oo adna waxaad leedahay, War Ilaah muxuu yaqaan? Oo gudcurka qarada leh miyuu wax ku dhex xukumi karaa?
You say, ‘What does God know? Can he judge through the thick darkness?
14 Waxaa isaga ku wareegsan daruuro qaro waaweyn, si uusan wax u arag, Oo isagu wuxuu ku socdaa wareegga samada.
Thick clouds are a covering to him, so that he does not see. He walks on the vault of the sky.’
15 War ma waxaad doonaysaa inaad sii haysatid jidkii hore Ee sharrowyadu ku socon jireen?
Will you keep the old way, which wicked men have trodden,
16 Iyaba waxaa la dhufsaday wakhtigoodii ka hor, Oo aasaaskoodiina daad baa baabbi'iyey.
who were snatched away before their time, whose foundation was poured out as a stream,
17 Waxay Ilaah ku yidhaahdeen, War naga tag, Bal maxaa Ilaaha Qaadirka ahu nagu samayn karaa?
who said to God, ‘Depart from us!’ and, ‘What can the Almighty do for us?’
18 Laakiin isagu wuxuu guryahooda ka buuxiyey waxyaalo wanwanaagsan; Talada sharrowguse way iga fog tahay.
Yet he filled their houses with good things, but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.
19 Kuwa xaqa ahu way arkaan oo way farxaan, Oo kuwa aan xaqa qabinuna way ku qoslaan oo ku majaajiloodaan,
The righteous see it, and are glad. The innocent ridicule them,
20 Waxayna yidhaahdaan, Sida xaqiiqada ah kuwii nagu kacay waa la baabbi'iyey, Oo kuwoodii hadhayna dab baa liqay.
saying, ‘Surely those who rose up against us are cut off. The fire has consumed their remnant.’
21 Haddaba isaga la heshii, oo iska nabdoonow, Waayo, sidaasaa wanaag kuugu iman doonaa.
“Acquaint yourself with him now, and be at peace. By it, good will come to you.
22 Haddaba waan ku baryayaaye, sharciga afkiisa ka aqbal, Oo erayadiisana qalbigaaga geli.
Please receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart.
23 Waa lagu dhisi doonaa haddaad Ilaaha Qaadirka ah u noqotid, Oo aad xaqdarrada teendhooyinkaaga ka fogaysid.
If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up, if you put away unrighteousness far from your tents.
24 Khasnaddaada waxaad ku xoortaa ciidda, Oo dahabka Oofirna waxaad ku dhex tuurtaa dhagaxyada durdurka,
Lay your treasure in the dust, the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks.
25 Oo Ilaaha Qaadirka ahuna wuxuu kuu noqon doonaa khasnad, Iyo lacag qiime badan.
The Almighty will be your treasure, and precious silver to you.
26 Oo markaasaad Ilaaha Qaadirka ah ku farxi doontaa, Oo wejigaagana Ilaah baad kor ugu qaadi doontaa.
For then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and will lift up your face to God.
27 Oo isagaad u tukan doontaa, oo isna wuu ku maqli doonaa, Oo adna waxaad bixin doontaa waxyaalihii aad nidartay.
You will make your prayer to him, and he will hear you. You will pay your vows.
28 Adiguna wax baad amri doontaa, oo waa laguu adkayn doonaa; Oo jidadkaaguna iftiin bay lahaan doonaan.
You will also decree a thing, and it will be established to you. Light will shine on your ways.
29 Markii hoos laguu tuuro, waxaad odhan doontaa, Waa lay sarraysiinayaa, Oo qofkii hooseeyana isagaa badbaadin doona.
When they cast down, you will say, ‘be lifted up.’ He will save the humble person.
30 Oo wuxuu samatabbixin doonaa kii aan xaq qabin; Hubaal isaga waxaa lagu samatabbixin doonaa nadiifsanaanta gacmahaaga.
He will even deliver him who is not innocent. Yes, he will be delivered through the cleanness of your hands.”
