Ayuub 35

1 Oo weliba Eliihuu wuu sii jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi,

Then commenced Elihu, and said,

2 Ma waxaad u malaynaysaa in taasu xaq tahay, Amase ma waxaad leedahay, Xaqnimadaydu way ka sii badan tahay tan Ilaah?

Dost thou deem this to be just, that thou hast said, “My righteousness is more than God's?”

3 Miyey kugu habboon tahay inaad tidhaahdid, Maxay ii taraysaa? Oo waa maxay faa'iidada aan ka helayo oo ka sii badan haddaan dembaabay?

For thou sayest, “What benefit will it be unto thee? what more profit shall I have, than if I had sinned?”

4 Haddaba waxaan u jawaabayaa Adiga iyo saaxiibbadaada kula jiraba.

I will truly reply unto thee with words, and unto thy friends with thee.

5 Bal indhahaaga kor u qaad oo samooyinka eeg, Oo bal daruuraha kaa sarreeya fiiri.

Look unto the heavens, and see; and gaze on the skies which are higher than thou.

6 Haddaad dembaabtay maxaa xumaan ah oo aad yeeshaa? Oo xadgudubyadaadu hadday bataanse maxaad isaga ku samaysaa?

If thou sin, what dost thou effect against him? and if thy transgressions be multiplied, what canst thou do unto him?

7 Haddaad xaq tahayse bal maxaad isaga siisaa? Isaguse muxuu gacantaada ka helaa?

If thou be righteous, what givest thou him? or what doth he accept out of thy hand?

8 Xumaantaadu waxay wax u dhintaa nin sidaadoo kale ah, Oo xaqnimadaaduna waxay wax ku tartaa binu-aadmiga.

A man like thyself thy wickedness may reach, and a son of earth thy righteousness.

9 Dulmiga ku batay daraaddiis ayay u qayliyaan, Oo kan xoogga badan gacantiisa daraaddeed ayay caawimaad ugu qayshadaan.

By reason of the multitude of oppressions [the wicked] cause men to cry: these complain aloud because of the arm of the mighty.

10 Laakiinse ninna ma yidhaahdo, Meeh Ilaahii i abuuray, Oo habeenkii gabayo i siiya,

But [man] saith not, Where is God my maker, who bestoweth joyful songs even in the night;

11 Oo wax na bara in ka sii badan xayawaanka dunida jooga, Oo weliba naga sii xigmad badiya haadda samada duusha?

Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of the heavens?

12 Dadka sharka ah kibirkooda daraaddiis Ayay iyagu halkaas uga qayliyaan, laakiinse ninna uma jawaabo.

There do they cry, but he answereth not: because of the pride of evil men.

13 Hubaal Ilaah maqli maayo wax aan waxba ahayn, Oo Kan Qaadirka ahuna innaba ka fiirsan maayo.

Only what is false will God not hear, nor will the Almighty regard it.

14 In kastoo aad tidhaahdaa, Isaga ma arko, Dacwadii isagay hor taal, oo adna waa inaad isaga sugtaa.

Although thou sayest, thou canst not see him: yet the decision is before him; and do thou wait for him.

15 Laakiinse haatan, isagu cadhadiisii kuma uu soo booqan, Oo xumaantana si weyn ugama uu fikiro;

But now, because his anger hath punished nothing, shall he not greatly take cognizance of the multitude of sins?

16 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed ayaa Ayuub hadalka aan waxtarka lahayn afkiisa ugu furaa, Oo isagoo aan aqoon lahayn ayuu erayo badiyaa.

But Job openeth wide his mouth for nought: without knowledge he heapeth up words.
