Ayuub 28
1 Hubaal lacagtu waxay leedahay god laga qodo, Oo dahabkuna wuxuu leeyahay meel lagu safeeyo.
Surely there is a mine for silver, a place where they refine gold.
2 Birta waxaa laga soo bixiyaa ciidda, Oo naxaastana waxaa laga dhalaaliyaa dhagaxa.
Iron is taken out of the earth; copper is smelted out of the stone.
3 Dadku gudcurkuu dhammeeyaa, Oo tan iyo soohdinta ugu shishaysana waxay baadhaan Dhagaxyada ku jira gudcurka qarada leh iyo hooska dhimashada.
A man sets an end to darkness and searches out, to the farthest limit, the stones in obscurity and thick darkness.
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 breaks open a shaft away from where people live, places that are forgotten by anyone's foot. He hangs far away from people; he swings to and fro.
5 Cuntadu dhulkay ka soo baxdaa, Oo dhankiisa hoosena wuu rogmadaa sida wax dabku rogo oo kale.
As for the earth, out of which comes bread, it is turned up below as if by fire.
6 Dhagaxyadiisu waa meeshii dhagaxyo safayr ah, Wuxuuna leeyahay dahab boodh ah.
Its stones are the place where sapphires are found, and its dust contains gold.
7 Wadiiqadaas haadka adagu ma yaqaan, Oo gorgorka ishiisuna ma ay arag,
No bird of prey knows the path to it, nor has the falcon's eye seen it.
8 Bahallada kibirka lahu kuma ay joogsan, Oo libaaxa cadhaysanina ma uu ag marin.
The proud animals have not walked such a path, nor has the fierce lion passed there.
9 Isagu gacantiisuu soo fidiyaa oo wuxuu saaraa dhagaxa adag, Oo buurahana wuu afgembiyaa oo xididdaduu ku rujiyaa.
A man lays his hand on the flinty rock; he overturns mountains by their roots.
10 Dhagaxyada dhexdooda wuxuu ka jeexaa keliyo, Oo ishiisuna wax kasta oo qaali ah way aragtaa.
He cuts out channels among the rocks; his eye sees every valuable thing there.
11 Wuxuu xidhaa durdurrada si ayan u dareerin, Oo waxa qarsoonna wuxuu u soo bannaan bixiyaa iftiinka.
He ties up the streams so they do not run; what is hidden there he brings out to the light.
12 Laakiinse waa xaggee meesha xigmadda laga helaa? Oo waxgarashada meesheeduse waa xaggee?
Where will wisdom be found? Where is the place of understanding?
13 Dadku qiimaheeda ma yaqaan, Oo kuwa nool dalkoodana lagama helo.
Man does not know its price; neither is it found in the land of the living.
14 Moolku wuxuu leeyahay, Iguma jirto, Badduna waxay leedahay, Aniga ilama jirto.
The deep waters under the earth say, 'It is not in me'; the sea says, 'It is not with me.'
15 Dahab laguma heli karo, Lacagna looma miisaamo.
It cannot be gotten for gold; neither can silver be weighed as its price.
16 Laguma qiimayn karo dahabka Oofir, Ama dhagaxa qaaliga ah oo onika la yidhaahdo ama xataa dhagaxa safayr la yidhaahdo.
It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with precious onyx or sapphire.
17 Dahab iyo madarad toona uma qalmi karaan, Oo beddelkeeduna ma noqon karo jawhar laga sameeyo dahab saafi ah.
Gold and crystal cannot equal it in worth; neither can it be exchanged for jewels of fine gold.
18 Waxba lagama sheegi doono dhagax cas oo raamood la yidhaahdo, amase madarad, Hubaal xigmadda qiimaheedu waa ka sii sarreeyaa luul.
No mention is worth making of coral or jasper; indeed, the price of wisdom is more than rubies.
19 Dhagaxa tobasiyos la yidhaahdo ee Itoobiya ka yimaadana uma qalmi doono, Oo xataa dahab saafi ahna laguma qiimayn doono.
The topaz of Cush does not equal it; neither can it be valued in terms of pure gold.
20 Haddaba xigmaddu xaggee bay ka timaadaa? Oo waxgarashada meesheeduse waa xaggee?
From where, then, comes wisdom? Where is the place of understanding?
21 Maxaa yeelay, way ka qarsoon tahay kuwa nool indhahooda, Oo haadka hawadana waa laga deday.
Wisdom is hidden from the eyes of all living things and is kept hidden from the birds of the heavens.
22 Halligaadda iyo Dhimashadu waxay leeyihiin, Dhegahayaga ayaannu warkeeda ku maqalnay.
Destruction and Death say, 'We have heard just a rumor about it with our ears.'
23 Ilaah ayaa jidkeeda garanaya, Oo isagaa meesheeda yaqaan.
God understands the way to it; he knows its place.
24 Waayo, isagu wuxuu fiiriyaa dunida darfaheeda, Oo wuxuu u jeedaa inta samada ka hoosaysa oo dhan,
For he looks to the very ends of the earth and sees under all the heavens.
25 Markuu dabaysha miisaamo, Oo uu biyahana qiyaaso.
He made the force of the wind and parceled out the waters by measure.
26 Markuu roobka qaynuun u sameeyey, Oo uu hillaaca onkodkana jid u sameeyey,
He made a decree for the rain and a path for the thunder.
27 Ayuu arkay, oo ka hadlay, Oo intuu adkeeyey ayuu weliba baadhay.
Then he saw wisdom and announced it; he established it, indeed, and he examined it.
28 Oo wuxuu dadka ku yidhi, Bal eega, Sayidka ka cabsashadiisa ayaa xigmad ah, Oo in sharka laga fogaadona waa waxgarasho.
To people he said, 'See, the fear of the Lord—that is wisdom; to depart from evil is understanding.'”
