Maahmaahyadii 16
1 Qalbiga qasdiyadiisa dadkaa leh, Laakiinse carrabka jawaabtiisu xagga Rabbigay ka timaadaa.
The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from YHWH.
2 Nin jidadkiisa oo dhammu waa la nadiifsan yihiin isaga, Laakiinse Rabbigu ruuxyaduu miisaamaa.
All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but YHWH weigheth the spirits.
3 Shuqulladaada Rabbiga ku aamin, Oo fikirradaaduna way taagnaan doonaan.
Commit thy works unto YHWH, and thy thoughts shall be established.
4 Rabbigu wax kastuu isu abuuray, Haah, oo xataa ka sharka leh wuxuu u abuuray maalinta sharkaa.
YHWH hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
5 Ku alla kii qalbiga ka kibirsanu Rabbiga waa u karaahiyo, Waxaan aad idiin ku xaqiijinayaa inaan isagu taqsiir la'aan doonayn.
Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to YHWH: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.
6 Waxaa dembiga lagu kafaaraggudaa naxariis iyo run, Oo dadkuna waxay sharka kaga fogaadaan Rabbiga ka cabsashadiisa.
By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of YHWH men depart from evil.
7 Markii Rabbigu ku farxo nin jidadkiis, Wuxuu nabad dhex dhigaa isaga iyo xataa cadaawayaashiisa.
When a man's ways please YHWH, he maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.
8 Wax yar oo xaqnimo la jirto Ayaa ka wanaagsan wax badan oo kordha oo xaqdarro la jirto.
Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without right.
9 Nin walba qalbigiisaa jidkiisa u fiirsada, Laakiinse Rabbigaa tallaabooyinkiisa toosiya.
A man's heart deviseth his way: but YHWH directeth his steps.
10 Xukunka Rabbigu wuxuu ku jiraa bushimaha boqorka, Afkiisuna kuma xadgudbo garsooridda.
A divine sentence is in the lips of the king: his mouth transgresseth not in judgment.
11 Miisaankii iyo kafadihii xaq ah Rabbigaa leh, Dhagaxyada miisaanka oo kiishka ku jira oo dhammuna waa shuqulkiisa.
A just weight and balance are YHWH 's: all the weights of the bag are his work.
12 Waa u karaahiyo boqorrada inay xumaan falaan. Waayo, carshigu xaqnimuu ku dhismaa.
It is an abomination to kings to commit wickedness: for the throne is established by righteousness.
13 Boqorradu bushimaha xaqa ah way ku farxaan, Oo kii si qumman u hadlana way jecel yihiin.
Righteous lips are the delight of kings; and they love him that speaketh right.
14 Boqor cadhadiisu waa sida warqaadayaal geeriyeed, Laakiinse nin caqli leh ayaa qaboojin doona.
The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.
15 Nuurka wejiga boqorka nolol baa ku jirta, Oo raallinimadiisuna waa sida daruurta roobka dambe.
In the light of the king's countenance is life; and his favour is as a cloud of the latter rain.
16 In xigmad la helaa intee bay ka sii wanaagsan tahay in dahab la helo! In waxgarasho la helaana waa laga doortaa in lacag la helo.
How much better is it to get wisdom than gold! and to get understanding rather to be chosen than silver!
17 Kuwa qumman jidkoodu waa inay sharka ka leexdaan, Kii jidkiisa dhawraa naftiisuu ilaaliyaa.
The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
18 Kibirku wuxuu hor socdaa baabba', Oo madaxweynaanuna waxay hor socotaa dhicid.
Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.
19 In kuwa kibirsan booli lala qaybsado Waxaa ka sii wanaagsan in kuwa hooseeya laysla sii hoosaysiiyo.
Better it is to be of an humble spirit with the lowly, than to divide the spoil with the proud.
20 Kii hadalka dhegaystaa wax wanaagsan buu heli doonaa, Oo ku alla kii Rabbiga aaminaana waa barakaysan yahay.
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in YHWH, happy is he.
21 Kii qalbigiisu caqli leeyahay waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa mid miyir leh, Oo bushimaha macaankooduna waxbarashuu kordhiyaa.
The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
22 Waxgarashadu waa u il nololeed kii haysta, Laakiinse edbinta nacasyadu waa nacasnimo.
Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.
23 Kii caqli leh qalbigiisu afkiisuu wax baraa, Oo waxbarashuu bushimihiisa u kordhiyaa.
The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips.
24 Hadalkii wacanu waa sida awlallo shinniyeed oo kale, Nafta wuu u macaan yahay, oo lafahana waa u caafimaad.
Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.
25 Waxaa jirta waddo dadka la qumman, Laakiinse dhammaadkeedu waa jidadkii dhimashada.
There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.
26 Kii hawshooda gaajadiisuu u hawshoodaa, Waayo, afkiisaa qasba isaga.
He that laboureth laboureth for himself; for his mouth craveth it of him.
27 Ninkii waxmatare ahu xumaan buu qodqodaa, Oo bushimihiisana waxaa ku jira dab wax gubaya.
A worthless man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire.
28 Ninkii qalloocanu muran buu beeraa, Oo kii xan badanuna wuxuu kala kaxeeyaa saaxiibbo.
A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.
29 Ninka wax dulmaa deriskiisuu sasabtaa, Oo wuxuu u kaxeeyaa jid aan wanaagsanayn.
A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.
30 Kii indhaha isugu qabta inuu wax qalloocan hindiso, Oo bushimihiisa qaniinaa, shar buu soo wadaa.
He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
31 Madaxa cirro lahu waa taaj sharfeed Haddii laga helo jidka xaqnimada.
The hoary head is a crown of glory, if it be found in the way of righteousness.
32 Kii cadhada u gaabiyaa waa ka wanaagsan yahay kii xoog badan, Oo kii ruuxiisa xukumaana waa ka wanaagsan yahay kii magaalo qabsada.
He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
33 Saamiga waxaa lagu tuuraa dhabta, Laakiinse go'aankiisa oo dhan Rabbigaa leh.
The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of YHWH.
