< Maahmaahyadii 11 >
1 Kafaddii khiyaano ah Rabbigu aad buu u karhaa, Laakiinse dhagaxii miisaanka oo xaq ah wuu ku farxaa.
A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.
2 Markuu kibir yimaado, waxaa timaada ceeb; Laakiinse xigmaddu waxay la jirtaa kuwa is-hoosaysiiya.
When pride comes, then comes shame: but with the lowly is wisdom.
3 Kuwa qumman waxaa kaxayn doonta daacadnimadooda, Laakiinse khaayinnada qalloocnaantoodu waa baabbi'in doontaa iyaga.
The integrity of the upright shall guide them: but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.
4 Maalinta cadhada maal faa'iido ma leh, Laakiinse xaqnimada ayaa dhimasho kaa samatabbixisa.
Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivers from death.
5 Ninkii kaamil ah xaqnimadiisu jidkiisay toosisaa, Laakiinse kan sharka lahu wuxuu ku kufi doonaa sharkiisa.
The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
6 Kuwa qumman xaqnimadoodaa samatabbixin doonta, Laakiinse khaayinnada waxaa qabsan doona damacooda xun.
The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.
7 Nin shar lahu markuu dhinto, wuxuu filanayay way baabbi'i doontaa, Oo xumaanfalayaasha rajadooduna way baabba'daa.
When a wicked man dies, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perishes.
8 Kii xaq ah waxaa laga samatabbixiyaa dhibaato, Oo meeshiisana waxaa yimaada kii shar leh.
The righteous is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked comes in his stead.
9 Labawejiilahu afkiisuu deriskiisa ku halligaa, Laakiinse kan xaqa ahu aqoon buu ku samatabbixi doonaa.
An hypocrite with his mouth destroys his neighbor: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.
10 Kuwa xaqa ahu markay barwaaqoobaan, magaaladu way rayraysaa, Laakiin kuwa sharka lahu markay halligmaan farax baa lagu dhawaaqaa.
When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices: and when the wicked perish, there is shouting.
11 Kuwa qumman ducadooda magaaladu sare bay ugu kacdaa, Laakiinse kuwa sharka leh afkoodu magaaladuu dumiyaa.
By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted: but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
12 Kii deriskiisa quudhsadaa waa caqli daranyahay, Laakiinse ninkii garaadka lahu wuu iska aamusaa.
He that is void of wisdom despises his neighbor: but a man of understanding holds his peace.
13 Kii sida mid xan badan u warwareegaa wuxuu daaha ka qaadaa waxyaalo qarsoon, Laakiinse kii ruuxiisu aamin yahay xaalkuu qariyaa.
A talebearer reveals secrets: but he that is of a faithful spirit conceals the matter.
14 Markaanay talo jirin, dadku waa dhacaa, Laakiinse taliyayaasha badnaantoodu waxay leedahay nabadgelyo.
Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
15 Kii qof qalaad dammiintaa, xumaan buu ka helaa, Laakiinse kii dammiinashada necebu ammaan buu u fadhiyaa.
He that is surety for a stranger shall smart for it: and he that hates indebtedness is sure.
16 Naag nimcaysan sharaf bay haysataa, Oo niman xoog lahuna maal bay haystaan.
A gracious woman retains honor: and strong men retain riches.
17 Ninkii naxariis badanu naftiisuu wanaag u sameeyaa, Laakiinse kii aan naxariis lahaynu jidhkiisuu dhibaa.
The merciful man does good to his own soul: but he that is cruel troubles his own flesh.
18 Kan sharka lahu wuxuu shaqaystaa mushahaaro khiyaano miidhan ah, Laakiinse kii xaqnimada beeraa wuxuu heli doonaa abaalgud la hubo.
The wicked works a deceitful work: but to him that sows righteousness shall be a sure reward.
19 Xaqnimadu waxay u kacdaa xagga nolosha, Sidaas oo kalena kii sharka raacaa wuxuu u raacaa dhimashadiisa.
As righteousness tends to life: so he that pursues evil pursues it to his own death.
20 Kuwa qalbigoodu qalloocan yahay Rabbigu aad buu u karhaa; Laakiinse kuwa jidkooda ku qumman wuu ku farxaa.
They that are of a fraudulent heart are abomination to the LORD: but such as are upright in their way are his delight.
21 Waxaan aad idiinku xaqiijinayaa inaan kan sharka lahu taqsiirla'aan doonayn. Laakiinse farcanka kuwa xaqa ah waa la samatabbixin doonaa.
Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpunished: but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.
22 Naag qurux badan oo aan digtoonaan lahaynu Waa sida dahab gafuurka doofaarka ku jira.
As a jewel of gold in a swine’s snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion.
23 Kuwa xaqa ah waxay doonayaan wanaag keliya, Laakiinse kuwa sharka ah filashadoodu waa cadho.
The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.
24 Waxaa jira mid wax firdhiya, oo haddana sii korodhsada; Oo waxaa jira mid ceshada wax ka sii badan in ku habboon, oo haddana sii caydhooba.
There is that scatters, and yet increases; and there is that withholds more than is meet, but it tends to poverty.
25 Qofkii deeqsi ah baa la barwaaqaysiin doonaa, Oo kii wax waraabiyana, isna waa la waraabin doonaa.
The liberal soul shall be made fat: and he that waters shall be watered also himself.
26 Kii hadhuudh ceshada, dadka ayaa habaari doona, Laakiinse kii iibiya, duco ayaa ku dhici doonta.
He that withholds corn, the people shall curse him: but blessing shall be on the head of him that sells it.
27 Kii wanaag aad u doonaa wuxuu doonayaa raallinimo, Laakiinse kii xumaan doona, way u iman doontaa.
He that diligently seeks good procures favor: but he that seeks mischief, it shall come to him.
28 Kii maalkiisa isku halleeyaa wuu dhici doonaa, Laakiinse kii xaq ahu wuxuu u barwaaqoobi doonaa sida caleen cagaar ah.
He that trusts in his riches shall fall; but the righteous shall flourish as a branch.
29 Kii gurigiisa dhibaa dabayshu dhaxli doonaa, Oo nacaskuna wuxuu midiidin u ahaan doonaa kan qalbigiisu caqliga leeyahay.
He that troubles his own house shall inherit the wind: and the fool shall be servant to the wise of heart.
30 Kan xaqa ah midhihiisu waa geed nololeed, Oo kii nafo soo hanuuniyaana caqli buu leeyahay.
The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that wins souls is wise.
31 Bal eega, kan xaqa ahu abaalkiisuu dhulka ku heli doonaa, Haddaba immisa abaalgud oo ka sii badan bay heli doonaan kan sharka leh iyo dembiluhu.
Behold, the righteous shall be recompensed in the earth: much more the wicked and the sinner.
