Ayuub 41
1 War bahalbadeedka Lewiiyaataan la yidhaahdo miyaad jillaab kalluun ku soo bixin kartaa? Carrabkiisase ma hoos baad xadhig ugu adkayn kartaa?
Canst thou draw out the Crocodile with a fish-hook? Or, with a cord, canst thou fasten down his tongue?
2 Ma sankiisaad xadhig ku xidhi kartaa? Mase daankiisaad jillaab ku duleelin kartaa?
Wilt thou put a rush-cord on his nose? or, with a thorn, wilt thou pierce his jaw?
3 Isagu ma aad buu kuu baryi doonaa? Mase hadal macaan buu kugula hadli doonaa?
Will he multiply unto thee supplications, or will he speak unto thee softly?
4 Ma axdi buu kula dhigan doonaa, Si aad addoon uga dhigatid weligiisba?
Will he solemnise a covenant with thee? Wilt thou take him for a life-long servant?
5 Ma waxaad isaga ula cayaari doontaa sidaad shimbir ula cayaartid oo kale? Miyaadse gabdhahaaga u xidhi doontaa?
Wilt thou sport with him, as with a little bird? Or wilt thou bind him, for thy maidens?
6 Kalluumaystayaashu miyey isaga iibin doonaan? Mase baayacmushtariyaasha bay u qaybin doonaan?
Shall the companions bargain over him? or will they part him among the traders?
7 Haraggiisa miyaad hotooyin ka buuxin kartaa? Madaxiisase miyaad warmaha kalluunka lagu qabsado ka buuxin kartaa?
Wilt thou fill, with darts, his skin? or, with fish-spears, his head?
8 Gacantaada isaga kor saar, Markaas dagaalka xusuuso, oo mar dambe saas yeeli maysid!
Lay thou upon him thy hand, remember the battle—no more!
9 Bal eeg, in isaga la qabto rajo ma leh, Xataa haddii isaga la arko, sow hoos loo dhici maayo?
Lo! any hope of him, hath been found deceptive, Even at the sight of him, shall not one be overwhelmed?
10 Ma jiro mid ku dhaca inuu isaga kiciyo, Haddaba waa ayo kan aniga i hor istaagi kara?
None so bold, that he will rouse him! Who then is he that, before me, can stand?
11 Bal yaa hore wax ii siiyey oo aan haatan u celiyaa? Waxa samada ka hooseeya oo dhan anigaa leh.
Who hath forestalled me, that I may repay him? Under all the heavens, mine it is!
12 Anigu ka aamusi maayo waxa ku saabsan addimmadiisa, Ama itaalkiisa xoogga leh, ama jidhkiisa quruxda badan.
I will not pass by in silence his parts, or the matter of strength, or the grace of his armour.
13 Haddaba bal yaa dharkiisa kore ka furan kara? Oo bal yaa gowsihiisa soo geli kara?
Who hath removed his outer garment, through his double row of teeth, who would enter?
14 Bal yaa albaabbada wejigiisa furi kara? Ilkihiisa aad baa looga cabsadaa.
The doors of his face, who hath opened? The circles of his teeth, are a terror!
15 Qolfihiisa adag waa wuxuu ku kibro, Oo waxay isugu wada xidhan yihiin sida wax shaabad lagu adkeeyo.
A pride, are his arched sides, closed up, with a firm seal;
16 Midba midda kale way ku dhow dahay, Oo innaba dabaylu dhexdooda kama dusi karto.
One to another, they join, and, air, cannot enter between them;
17 Middoodba midda kale way haysataa, Oo way isku wada dheggan yihiin, oo innaba lama kala fujin karo.
Each to its fellow, they cleave, they grasp each other, and cannot be parted;
18 Hindhisooyinkiisa waxaa ka soo widhwidha iftiin, Oo indhihiisuna waa sidii kaaha waaberiga.
His sneezings, flash forth light, and, his eyes, are like the eyelashes of the dawn;
19 Afkiisa waxaa ka soo baxa wax ololaya, Oo waxaa ka soo duula dhimbiilo dab ah.
Out of his mouth, torches dart forth, sparks of fire, escape;
20 Dulalka sankiisa qiiq baa ka soo baxa Sida dheri karaya iyo cawsduur ololaya.
Out of his nostrils, proceedeth smoke, like a blown pot and rushes;
21 Neeftiisu dhuxulay shiddaa, Oo olol baa afkiisa ka soo baxa.
His breath, setteth coals ablaze, and, a flame, out of his mouth, proceedeth;
22 Luquntiisu xoog bay leedahay, Oo cabsina hortiisay ku booddaa.
In his neck, lodgeth strength, and, before him, danceth dismay;
23 Duudduubyada jidhkiisu way isku wada dheggan yihiin, Wayna ku adag yihiin oo innaba lama dhaqaajin karo.
The dewlaps of his flesh, cleave together, hardened upon him, they cannot be moved;
24 Qalbigiisu wuxuu u adag yahay sida dhagax oo kale, Hubaal wuxuu u adag yahay sida dhagaxa shiidka ee hoose.
His heart, is hardened like a stone, yea hardened, like the nether millstone;
25 Markuu sara joogsado ayay kuwa xoogga badanu baqaan, Oo naxdin daraaddeed ayay la waashaan.
At his rising up, mighty men are afraid, by reason of terror, they are beside themselves:
26 In kastoo lagula kaco seef, Iyo waran, iyo fallaadh, iyo hoto, kolleyba waxba kama tari karaan.
As for him that assaileth him, the sword availeth not, spear, dart, or coat of mail:
27 Isagu birta wuxuu ku tiriyaa sida caws engegan oo kale, Naxaastana wuxuu ku tiriyaa sida qori bololay.
He counteth iron as broken straw, and bronze as rotten wood:
28 Fallaadhu isaga ma eryi karto, Oo dhagaxyada wadhafkuna waxay isaga u noqdaan sidii xaab oo kale.
The arrow, will not make him flee, Into chaff, are sling-stones changed by him:
29 Budhadhkuna waxay isaga la yihiin sidii xaab oo kale, Oo hotada ruxmashadeedana wuu ku qoslaa.
As a straw, is a club accounted, and he laugheth at the whir of the javelin;
30 Boggiisa hoose waa sida dheryo burburradooda afaysan, Oo wuxuu dhoobada ugu kor dhaqaaqaa sida gaadhi hadhuudh lagu tumo.
His underparts, are points of potsherd, a pointed threshing roller spreadeth out upon the slime:
31 Isagu moolkuu u kariyaa sidii dheri oo kale, Oo baddana wuxuu ka dhigaa sida weel cadar ku jiro oo kale.
He causeth to boil, as a cauldron, the raging deep, the sea, he maketh like a brewing vessel:
32 Xaggiisa dambe wuxuu noqdaa jid wax ka iftiimo, Oo moolkana waxaa loo maleeyaa sidii cirro oo kale.
After him, he lighteth up a path, one might think the resounding deep to be hoary!
33 Dhulka ma joogo mid sidiisa oo kale, Oo cabsila'aan la abuuray.
There is not—upon the dust—his like, that hath been made to be without fear;
34 Isagu wuxuu fiiriyaa waxyaalaha sare oo dhan, Oo inta kibirsan oo dhan boqor buu u yahay.
Every thing lofty, he beholdeth, he, is king over all ravenous beasts.
