Ayuub 7

1 War sow hawl diyaar uma aha binu-aadmiga dhulka jooga? Sowse maalmihiisu ma aha sida kuwa shaqaale oo kale?

Is not the life of man upon earth a state of trial? and his existence as that of a hireling by the day?

2 Sida addoon hoos u xiisooda, Iyo sida shaqaale mushahaaradiisa filanaya,

Or as a servant that fears his master, and one who has grasped a shadow? or as a hireling waiting for his pay?

3 Sidaasoo kale waxaa lay siiyaa bilo aan waxtar lahayn, Oo waxaa lay siiyaa habeenno daal badan.

So have I also endured months of vanity, and nights of pain have been appointed me.

4 Haddaba markaan jiifsado waxaan idhaahdaa, Bal goormaan kici doonaa? Laakiinse habeenku waa dheer yahay Oo tan iyo waaberiga waan rogrogmadaa.

Whenever I lie down, I say, When [will it be] day? and whenever I rise up, again [I say] when [will it be] evening? and I am full of pains from evening to morning.

5 Jidhkaygii waxaa ku dedan dirxiyo iyo qolfo ciid ah, Haddaba dubkaygu waa isqabsadaa dabadeedna wuu sii dillaacaa.

And my body is covered with loathsome worms; and I waste away, scraping off clods of dust from my eruption.

6 Cimrigaygu waa ka dheereeyaa dungudbiyaha dharsameeyaha, Oo rajola'aan baan ku noolahay.

And my life is lighter than a word, and has perished in vain hope.

7 Bal xusuusta in noloshaydu tahay dabayl uun, Ishayduna mar dambe samaan ma arki doonto.

Remember then that my life is breath, and mine eye shall not yet again see good.

8 Kii i fiiriya ishiisu mar dambe ima arki doonto, Indhahaagu way i fiirin doonaan, laakiinse anigu ma jiri doono.

The eye of him that sees me shall not see me [again]: your eyes are upon me, and I am no more.

9 Sida daruurtu ay u libidho oo ay u baabba'do, Sidaasoo kale ayaa kii She'ool hoos u galaa uusan mar dambe kor uga soo noqonayn. (Sheol h7585)

[I am] as a cloud that is cleared away from the sky: for if a man go down to the grave, he shall not come up again: (Sheol h7585)

10 Isagu mar dambe gurigiisii kuma soo noqon doono, Oo meeshiisiina mar dambe ma ay aqoon doonto.

and he shall surely not return to his own house, neither shall his place know him any more.

11 Sidaas daraaddeed anigu afkayga celin maayo; Waxaan ku hadli doonaa cidhiidhiga qalbigayga, Oo waxaan ku caban doonaa tiiraanyada qadhaadh oo naftayda.

Then neither will I refrain my mouth: I will speak being in distress; being in anguish I will disclose the bitterness of my soul.

12 War anigu ma bad baan ahay, mase nibiriga badda, Bal maxaad ii daawanaysaa?

Am I a sea, or a serpent, that you have set a watch over me?

13 Markaan idhaahdo, Sariirtaydaa ii raxayn doonta, Oo gogoshaydaa cabatinkayga iga sahali doonta,

I said that my bed should comfort me, and I would privately counsel with myself on my couch.

14 Ayaad riyooyin igu bajisaa, Oo waxaad igu cabsiisaa muuqashooyin.

You scare me with dreams, and do terrify me with visions.

15 Sidaas daraaddeed naftaydu waxay lafahayga ka doorataa Ceejin iyo geeri.

You will separate life from my spirit; and yet [keep] my bones from death.

16 Noloshayda waan nacsanahay, oo dooni maayo inaan weligay sii noolaado; War iska kay daa, waayo, cimrigaygu waa neefsasho oo kale.

For I shall not live for ever, that I should patiently endure: depart from me, for my life [is] vain.

17 Bal binu-aadmigu muxuu yahay oo aad u weynaynaysaa, Balse maxaad uga fikiraysaa isaga?

For what is man, that you have magnified him? or that you give heed to him?

18 Bal maxaad subax kasta u soo booqanaysaa, Oo aad daqiiqad kasta u tijaabinaysaa?

Will you visit him till the morning, and judge him till [the time of] rest?

19 Bal ilaa goormaadan iga sii jeesanayn, Oo aadan iska kay daynayn intaan candhuuftayda liqayo?

How long do you not let me alone, nor let me go, until I shall swallow down my spittle?

20 Oo haddii aan dembaabay bal maxaan kuu sameeyaa Kaaga dadka ilaaliyow? Bal maxaad iiga dhigatay calaamad, Si aan nafsaddayda culaab ugu noqdo?

If I have sinned, what shall I be able to do, O you that understand the mind of men? why have you made me as your accuser, and [why] am I a burden to you?

21 Oo bal maxaad xadgudubkayga iiga saamaxi weyday? Oo dembigaygana maxaad iiga fogayn weyday? Waayo, haatan ciiddaan ku dhex jiifsan doonaa, Aad baadna ii doondooni doontaa, laakiinse siima aan jiri doono.

Why have you not forgotten my iniquity, and purged my sin? but now I shall depart to the earth; and in the morning I am no more.
