Ayuub 36
1 Oo weliba Eliihuu hadalkiisii buu watay oo wuxuu yidhi,
Elihu [finished by] saying this:
2 Weliba in yar ii sii kaadi, oo anna wax baan ku tusayaa, Waayo, weli waxaan hayaa wax aan Ilaah daraaddiis u odhanayo.
“[Job, ] be patient with me a little longer, because I have something else to teach you. I have something else to say that God [wants you to know].
3 Aqoontayda meel fog baan ka keeni doonaa, Oo xaqnimana waan ka sheegi doonaa kii i abuuray.
I will tell you what I have learned from many sources, in order to show that God, my creator, is just/fair.
4 Waayo, sida runta ah erayadaydu been ma aha; Oo mid aqoontu kaamil ku tahay ayaa kula jooga.
I am not saying anything to you that is false; I, who am standing in front of you, am someone who understands things (very well/perfectly) [HYP].
5 Bal eeg, Ilaah waa xoog badan yahay, oo isagu ninna ma quudhsado, Oo itaalka waxgarashada wuu ku xoog badan yahay.
“Hey, God is [very] powerful, and he does not despise anyone, and he understands everything.
6 Isagu uma daayo kan sharka ahu inuu sii noolaado, Laakiinse kuwa dhibaataysan xaqooduu siiyaa.
He does not allow wicked people to remain alive, and he always acts justly toward those who are poor.
7 Isagu indhihiisa kama qaado kuwa xaqa ah, Laakiinse wuxuu weligoodba la fadhiisiyaa boqorrada carshiga ku fadhiya, Oo iyaga waa la sarraysiiyaa.
He always watches over [MTY] those who are righteous; he allows them to sit on thrones [and rule] with kings, and they are honored forever.
8 Oo haddii silsilado lagu xidho, Oo xadhkaha dhibka lagu kaxaysto,
But if people [who commit crimes] are caught, they [are thrown into prison and] are caused to suffer by being fastened with chains.
9 Markaas wuxuu iyaga ku caddeeyaa falimahooda, Iyo xadgudubyadoodii ay kibirka u sameeyeen.
When that happens, God shows them what they have done; he shows them the sins that they have committed, and he shows them that they have been proud/arrogant.
10 Oo dhegtoodana wuxuu u furaa waxbaridda, Oo wuxuu ku amraa inay xumaanta ka soo noqdaan.
He causes them to listen [MTY] to what he is warning them, and he commands them to turn away from [doing what is] evil.
11 Hadday isaga maqlaan oo ay u adeegaan, Cimrigooda waxay ku dhammaysan doonaan barwaaqo, Oo sannadahoodana waxay ku waari doonaan nimco.
If they (listen to/heed) him and serve him, [after they get out of prison] they will prosper for all the years that they are alive and be peaceful/happy.
12 Laakiinse hadday maqli waayaan, seef bay ku baabbi'i doonaan, Oo waxay dhiman doonaan iyagoo aan aqoon lahayn.
But if they do not (listen/pay attention) to him, they will die violently, not knowing [why God is causing them to die].
13 Laakiinse kuwa cibaadalaawayaasha ah oo qalbigoodu beloobay waxay isa soo gaadhsiiyaan cadho, Oo markuu iyaga xidhana caawimaad uma qayshadaan.
“Godless/Wicked people continue being angry, and they do not cry out for help, [even] when God is punishing them.
14 Dhallinyaranimay ku dhintaan, Oo naftooduna waxay ku halligantaa khaniisiinta dhexdooda.
They die while they are still young, disgraced because of their very immoral behavior [EUP].
15 Isagu kii dhibban ayuu dhibaatadiisa ku samatabbixiyaa, Oo dhegahana buu u furaa markay dhib la kulmaan.
But God teaches people by causing them to suffer; by afflicting them, he causes them to listen to [MTY] what he is telling them.
16 Isagu dhibaato wuu kaa bixin lahaa, Oo wuxuu ku geeyn lahaa meel ballaadhan oo aan cidhiidhi ahayn, Oo miiskaaga waxa saaran oo dhammuna waxay ahaan lahaayeen baruur miidhan.
“And Job, [I think that] God [wants to] bring you out of your troubles and allow you to live without distress; he wants your table to be full of very nice food.
17 Laakiinse xukunka kuwa sharka ah ayaa kaa buuxa, Oo garsoorid iyo caddaalad ayaa ku qabsada.
But now, you are being punished [MTY] as wicked people are punished; [God] [PRS] has been punishing you (justly/as you deserve).
18 Iska jir yaanay cadho ku sasabin si aad wax u majaajilootid, Oo furashada weynaanteeduna yaanay ku leexin.
So be careful that you are not deceived by [desiring to acquire] money or that you are not ruined by [accepting] large bribes.
19 Taajirnimadaada iyo xoogga itaalkaaga oo dhammu Miyey kugu filan yihiin inay dhibaato kaa saaraan?
[If you are deceived by those things, ] it certainly will not [RHQ] help you to cry out when you are distressed; all of your strength will not help you.
20 Habeenka ha doonin, Markay dadyowgu meeshooda ku wada baabba'aan.
Do not wish that it would be nighttime [in order that God will not see you and punish you], because night is the time when [even] people-groups are destroyed!
21 Iska jir oo xumaan ha u jeedin, Waayo, taasaad ka dooratay dhibaato.
Be careful not to [begin doing] evil things, because [God] has caused you to suffer to prevent you from doing evil.
22 Bal eeg, Ilaah baa xooggiisa ku sarreeya; Waa ayo macallinka isaga la mid ahu?
“Hey, God is extremely powerful; there is certainly [RHQ] no teacher who teaches like he does.
23 Jidkiisa yaa u amray? Yaase isaga ku odhan kara, Waxaad samaysay xaqdarro?
No one has [RHQ] told him what he should do, and no one has [RHQ] said to him, ‘You have done what is wrong!’
24 Xusuuso inaad weynaysid shuqulkiisii Ay dadku ka gabyeen.
People have [always] sung to praise him, so you also should never forget to praise him for what he has done.
25 Dadka oo dhammu way wada fiiriyeen, Oo binu-aadmiguna meel fog buu ka arkaa.
Everyone has seen [what he has done], but [sometimes] we can see it only from far away.
26 Bal eeg, Ilaah waa weyn yahay, oo annana isaga ma aannu naqaan; Oo cimrigiisu intuu yahayna lama soo baadhi karo.
“Hey, God is very great, and we are not able to know how great he is, and we do not know how old he is.
27 Waayo, isagu wuxuu kor u jiitaa dhibicyaha biyaha, Oo wuxuu ka dhigaa ceeryaamo roob noqota,
He draws water up [from the earth and puts it in clouds] and causes it to become rain.
28 Oo daruuraha ka soo da'a, Oo binu-aadmiga aad ugu dul shubma.
The rain pours down from the sky/clouds; God causes abundant showers to fall on everyone.
29 Ninna miyuu garan karaa daruuraha kala faafintooda, Iyo onkodyada taambuuggiisa?
No one can [RHQ] understand how the clouds move [across the sky] or how it thunders in the sky where God lives.
30 Bal eeg, isagu hareerihiisa wuxuu ku faafiyaa nuurkiisa, Oo badda salkeedana wuu daboolaa.
He causes lightning to flash all around him, but he causes the bottom of the oceans to remain dark.
31 Waayo, isagu kuwaasuu dadyowga ku xukumaa, Oo cunto badanna wuu siiyaa.
By providing plenty of rain for us, he enables us to have abundant food.
32 Gacmihiisuu hillaac ku daboolaa, Oo wuxuu ku amraa inuu ku dhaco calaamadda uu ku liishaamay.
[It is as though] he holds the lightning in his hands, and [then] he commands it to strike where he wants it to.
33 Sanqadhiisu isagay wax ka sheegtaa, Oo weliba xayawaankuna wax bay ka sheegaan waxa soo socda.
When we hear his thunder, we know that there will be a storm, and the cattle know it, too.”
