Ayuub 5
1 Hadda bal u yeedh, mid kuu jawaabayaa ma jiraa? Balse kuwa quduuska ah midkoodee baad u jeesanaysaa?
“Call now; is there any who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?
2 Waayo, ninkii nacas ah xanaaqiisaa dila, Oo kii doqon ahna ciilkiisaa dila.
For resentment kills the foolish man, and jealousy kills the simple.
3 Anba waxaan arkay nacas xidid yeeshay. Laakiinse degdeg baan u habaaray rugtiisii.
I have seen the foolish taking root, but suddenly I cursed his habitation.
4 Carruurtiisu nabaadiino way ka fog yihiin, Oo iridda agteeda ayaa iyaga lagu burburiyaa, Mana jiro mid samatabbixiyaa.
His children are far from safety. They are crushed in the gate. Neither is there any to deliver them,
5 Kuwaas beertay goostaan waxaa cuna kuwa gaajaysan, Oo xataa qodxanta way kala soo dhex bixiyaan, Oo maalkoodana waxaa afka u kala haya siriq.
whose harvest the hungry eat up, and take it even out of the thorns. The snare gapes for their substance.
6 Waayo, belaayo kama soo baxdo ciidda, Dhibaatona kama soo dhex booddo dhulka,
For affliction doesn’t come out of the dust, neither does trouble spring out of the ground;
7 Laakiinse binu-aadmigu dhibaato buu u dhashay, Sida dhimbiiluhu kor ugu duulaan.
but man is born to trouble, as the sparks fly upward.
8 Aniguse Ilaah baan baryi lahaa, Oo xaalkaygana Ilaah baan u dhiibi lahaa,
“But as for me, I would seek God. I would commit my cause to God,
9 Kaasoo sameeya waxyaalo waaweyn oo aan la baadhi karin, Iyo waxyaalo yaab badan oo aan la tirin karin,
who does great things that can’t be fathomed, marvellous things without number;
10 Oo dhulka roob ku di'iya, Beerahana biyo u soo dira.
who gives rain on the earth, and sends waters on the fields;
11 Oo kuwa hooseeyana kor buu u qaadaa, Kuwa baroortana nabaadiinuu ku sarraysiiyaa.
so that he sets up on high those who are low, those who mourn are exalted to safety.
12 Madhnaan buu ka dhigaa talada khaa'innada, Si ayan gacmahoodu u oofin karin farsamadoodii.
He frustrates the plans of the crafty, so that their hands can’t perform their enterprise.
13 Isagu kuwa xigmadda leh ayuu khiyaanadooda ku qabtaa; Oo kuwa qalloocan taladoodana degdeg baa loo rogaa.
He takes the wise in their own craftiness; the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong.
14 Oo maalinnimada ayay gudcur helaan, Oo hadhka ayay wax haabhaabtaan sida habeennimada oo kale.
They meet with darkness in the day time, and grope at noonday as in the night.
15 Laakiinse isagu kuwa baahan ayuu ka badbaadiyaa seefta afkooda, Iyo kuwa xoogga badan gacantooda.
But he saves from the sword of their mouth, even the needy from the hand of the mighty.
16 Sidaas daraaddeed kii miskiin ahu rajuu leeyahay, Xumaantuse afkeeday xidhaa.
So the poor has hope, and injustice shuts her mouth.
17 Bal eeg, waxaa faraxsan ninkii Ilaah canaanto, Haddaba ha quudhsan Qaadirka edbintiisa.
“Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.
18 Waayo, isagu wax buu nabar u yeelaa, waana duubaa; Wuu dhaawacaa, gacmihiisuna way bogsiiyaan.
For he wounds and binds up. He injures and his hands make whole.
19 Wuxuu kaa samatabbixin doonaa lix dhibaato, Oo marka toddobaadna belaayo kuma taaban doonto innaba.
He will deliver you in six troubles; yes, in seven no evil will touch you.
20 Wakhtiga abaarta ah dhimashuu kaa furan doonaa, Wakhtiga dagaalkana xoogga seefta.
In famine he will redeem you from death; in war, from the power of the sword.
21 Waad ka qarsoonaan doontaa karbaashidda carrabka; Oo baabbi'iddu markay timaadana kama aad cabsan doontid innaba.
You will be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, neither will you be afraid of destruction when it comes.
22 Waad ku qosli doontaa baabbi'idda iyo abaarta, Oo dugaagga dhulkana kama aad baqi doontid.
You will laugh at destruction and famine, neither will you be afraid of the animals of the earth.
23 Waayo, axdi baad la yeelan doontaa dhagaxyada berrinka, Oo dugaagga duurkana heshiis baad la ahaan doontaa.
For you will be allied with the stones of the field. The animals of the field will be at peace with you.
24 Oo waxaad ogaan doontaa in teendhadaadu nabdoon tahay, Oo xeradaada waad soo booqon doontaa, oo waxba kama waayi doontid innaba.
You will know that your tent is in peace. You will visit your fold, and will miss nothing.
25 Oo weliba waxaad ogaan doontaa in farcankaagu badnaan doono, Oo dhashaaduna sida cawska dhulka bay ahaan doontaa.
You will know also that your offspring will be great, your offspring as the grass of the earth.
26 Oo cimri dheer baad qabrigaaga ku geli doontaa, Sida xidhmo hadhuudh ah xilliga loo soo xidho.
You will come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.
27 Bal eeg, annagu xaalkan waannu baadhnay, oo sidaas bayna tahay, Haddaba bal maqal, oo nafsaddaada u ogow.
Behold, we have researched it. It is so. Hear it, and know it for your good.”
