Ayuub 28
1 Hubaal lacagtu waxay leedahay god laga qodo, Oo dahabkuna wuxuu leeyahay meel lagu safeeyo.
For truly there is a source for the silver, and a place for the gold which men refine.
2 Birta waxaa laga soo bixiyaa ciidda, Oo naxaastana waxaa laga dhalaaliyaa dhagaxa.
Iron is taken out of the dust, and the stone is melted into copper.
3 Dadku gudcurkuu dhammeeyaa, Oo tan iyo soohdinta ugu shishaysana waxay baadhaan Dhagaxyada ku jira gudcurka qarada leh iyo hooska dhimashada.
An end doth he set to darkness, and the very utmost limit doth he search out, the stones of darkness, and of the shadow of death.
4 Isagu god dheer ayuu ka qodaa meel ka fog meesha dadku deggan yahay. Iyaga waxaa illooba qofka ag mara; Oo waxay ka laallaadaan meel dadka ka fog, oo hor iyo dib bay u ruxmadaan.
He breaketh a channel far from the inhabited place; those of unsteady foot, the poorest of men move [there about].
5 Cuntadu dhulkay ka soo baxdaa, Oo dhankiisa hoosena wuu rogmadaa sida wax dabku rogo oo kale.
The earth, out of which cometh forth bread, is under its surface turned up as it were with fire.
6 Dhagaxyadiisu waa meeshii dhagaxyo safayr ah, Wuxuuna leeyahay dahab boodh ah.
Her stones are the place whence the sapphire cometh; and golden dust is also there;
7 Wadiiqadaas haadka adagu ma yaqaan, Oo gorgorka ishiisuna ma ay arag,
[On the] path which no bird of prey knoweth, and which the vulture's eye hath not surveyed;
8 Bahallada kibirka lahu kuma ay joogsan, Oo libaaxa cadhaysanina ma uu ag marin.
[Which] ravenous beasts have never trodden, over which the lion hath never passed.
9 Isagu gacantiisuu soo fidiyaa oo wuxuu saaraa dhagaxa adag, Oo buurahana wuu afgembiyaa oo xididdaduu ku rujiyaa.
To the flinty rock he stretcheth forth his hand; he overturneth the mountains from the root.
10 Dhagaxyada dhexdooda wuxuu ka jeexaa keliyo, Oo ishiisuna wax kasta oo qaali ah way aragtaa.
Amid rocks he heweth out canals: and every precious thing doth his eye behold.
11 Wuxuu xidhaa durdurrada si ayan u dareerin, Oo waxa qarsoonna wuxuu u soo bannaan bixiyaa iftiinka.
The various droppings of water he uniteth into streams, and what is hidden he bringeth forth to light.
12 Laakiinse waa xaggee meesha xigmadda laga helaa? Oo waxgarashada meesheeduse waa xaggee?
But wisdom—where shall she he found? and where is the place of understanding?
13 Dadku qiimaheeda ma yaqaan, Oo kuwa nool dalkoodana lagama helo.
Man knoweth not her value: and she is not to be found in the land of the living.
14 Moolku wuxuu leeyahay, Iguma jirto, Badduna waxay leedahay, Aniga ilama jirto.
The deep saith, Not in me is she: and the sea saith, She is not with me.
15 Dahab laguma heli karo, Lacagna looma miisaamo.
No fine gold can be given in lieu of her, and silver cannot be weighed out as her price.
16 Laguma qiimayn karo dahabka Oofir, Ama dhagaxa qaaliga ah oo onika la yidhaahdo ama xataa dhagaxa safayr la yidhaahdo.
She cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.
17 Dahab iyo madarad toona uma qalmi karaan, Oo beddelkeeduna ma noqon karo jawhar laga sameeyo dahab saafi ah.
She cannot be estimated after gold and glass; and not in exchange for her [can] vessels of refined gold [be taken.]
18 Waxba lagama sheegi doono dhagax cas oo raamood la yidhaahdo, amase madarad, Hubaal xigmadda qiimaheedu waa ka sii sarreeyaa luul.
Coral and crystal will not be thought of; and the value of wisdom is above pearls.
19 Dhagaxa tobasiyos la yidhaahdo ee Itoobiya ka yimaadana uma qalmi doono, Oo xataa dahab saafi ahna laguma qiimayn doono.
She cannot be estimated after the topaz of Ethiopia, nor can she be valued with pure gold.
20 Haddaba xigmaddu xaggee bay ka timaadaa? Oo waxgarashada meesheeduse waa xaggee?
But wisdom—whence cometh she? and where is the place of understanding?
21 Maxaa yeelay, way ka qarsoon tahay kuwa nool indhahooda, Oo haadka hawadana waa laga deday.
Yea, she is hidden from the eyes of all living, and from the fowls of the heavens is she concealed.
22 Halligaadda iyo Dhimashadu waxay leeyihiin, Dhegahayaga ayaannu warkeeda ku maqalnay.
Perdition and death say, With our ears have we heard a report of her.
23 Ilaah ayaa jidkeeda garanaya, Oo isagaa meesheeda yaqaan.
God [alone] understandeth her way, and he knoweth her place;
24 Waayo, isagu wuxuu fiiriyaa dunida darfaheeda, Oo wuxuu u jeedaa inta samada ka hoosaysa oo dhan,
For he looketh to the ends of the earth, [whatever is] under the whole heaven doth he see.
25 Markuu dabaysha miisaamo, Oo uu biyahana qiyaaso.
When he imparted weight unto the wind; and [when] the waters he established by measure;
26 Markuu roobka qaynuun u sameeyey, Oo uu hillaaca onkodkana jid u sameeyey,
When he made a law for the rain, and a way for the lightning of [his] thunders;
27 Ayuu arkay, oo ka hadlay, Oo intuu adkeeyey ayuu weliba baadhay.
Then did he see her, and make her known; he established her, and also searched her out.
28 Oo wuxuu dadka ku yidhi, Bal eega, Sayidka ka cabsashadiisa ayaa xigmad ah, Oo in sharka laga fogaadona waa waxgarasho.
And he said unto man, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to eschew evil is understanding.
