Maahmaahyadii 19
1 Miskiinka daacadnimadiisa ku socda ayaa ka wanaagsan Nacaska bushimihiisu qalloocan yihiin.
Better [is] the poor walking in his integrity, Than the perverse [in] his lips—who [is] a fool.
2 Oo weliba in naftu aqoon la'aato ma wanaagsana, Oo kii cagihiisu degdegaanna wuu ambadaa.
Also, without knowledge the soul [is] not good, And the hasty in feet is sinning.
3 Nin nacasnimadiisu jidkiisay qalloocisaa, Oo isagu qalbigiisa ayuu Rabbiga uga cadhoodaa.
The folly of man perverts his way, And his heart is angry against YHWH.
4 Maalku wuxuu badiyaa saaxiibbo, Laakiinse miskiinku saaxiibkiisa buu ka soocmaa.
Wealth adds many friends, And the poor is separated from his neighbor.
5 Markhaatigii been ahu ma taqsiir la'aan doono, Oo kii been ku hadlaana ma baxsan doono.
A false witness is not acquitted, Whoever breathes out lies is not delivered.
6 Kuwa badan ayaa deeqsiga raallinimo ka baryi doona, Oo nin kastaaba waa u saaxiib kii hadiyado bixiya.
Many beg the face of the noble, And all have made friendship to a man of gifts.
7 Miskiinka walaalihiis oo dhammu way neceb yihiin, Haddaba saaxiibbadiisuna intee bay ka fogaan doonaan! Isagu hadal buu kala daba tagaa iyaga, laakiinse way tageen.
All the brothers of the poor have hated him, Surely his friends have also been far from him, He is pursuing words—they are not!
8 Kii xigmadda helaa naftiisuu jecel yahay, Oo kii waxgarashada xajistaana wax wanaagsan buu heli doonaa.
Whoever is getting heart is loving his soul, He is keeping understanding to find good.
9 Markhaatigii been ahu ma taqsiir la'aan doono, Oo kii been ku hadlaana wuu halligmi doonaa.
A false witness is not acquitted, And whoever breathes out lies perishes.
10 Nacaska raaxo uma eka, Waxaana taas ka sii liita in addoon amiirro xukumo.
Luxury is not fitting for a fool, Much less for a servant to rule among princes.
11 Nin miyirkiisu cadho buu ka celiyaa, Oo waxaa isaga ammaan u ah inuu xadgudub dhaafo.
The wisdom of a man has deferred his anger, And his glory [is] to pass over transgression.
12 Boqorka cadhadiisu waa sida libaaxa cidiisa, Laakiinse raallinimadiisu waa sida sayaxa cawska ku dega.
The wrath of a king [is] a growl as of a young lion, And his goodwill as dew on the herb.
13 Wiilkii nacas ahu waa u belaayo aabbihiis, Oo naag murammadeeduna waa sida dhibicyo aan kala go'in.
A foolish son [is] a calamity to his father, And the contentions of a wife [are] a continual dropping.
14 Hoy iyo hanti aabbayaashaa laga dhaxlaa, Laakiinse afo miyir leh xagga Rabbigaa laga helaa.
House and wealth [are] the inheritance of fathers, And an understanding wife [is] from YHWH.
15 Caajisnimo waxay keentaa hurdo weyn, Oo qofkii caajis ahuna wuu gaajoon doonaa.
Sloth causes deep sleep to fall, And an indolent soul hungers.
16 Kii amarka dhawraa naftiisuu dhawraa, Laakiinse kii jidadkiisa fudaydsadaa wuu dhiman doonaa.
Whoever is keeping the command is keeping his soul, Whoever is despising His ways dies.
17 Kii miskiinka u naxaa Rabbiguu wax amaahiyaa, Oo wanaaggii uu sameeyeyna wuu u celin doonaa.
Whoever is lending [to] YHWH is favoring the poor, And He repays his deed to him.
18 Wiilkaaga edbi intay rajo jirto, Laakiinse naftaada ha ku qasbin si uu u dhinto.
Discipline your son, for there is hope, And do not lift up your soul to put him to death.
19 Ninkii cadho badan waa la taqsiiri doonaa, Waayo, haddaad mar isaga samatabbixiso, haddana waa inaad mar kale sidii oo kale ku samaysaa.
A man of great wrath is bearing punishment, For if you deliver, yet again you add.
20 Talada maqal, oo edbinta qaado, Si aad ugu dambaystaada caqli u yeelatid.
Hear counsel and receive instruction, So that you are wise in your latter end.
21 Nin qalbigiisa waxaa ku jira hindisooyin badan, Habase ahaatee waxaa taagnaan doonta talada Rabbiga.
The purposes in a man’s heart [are] many, And the counsel of YHWH—it stands.
22 Nin waxaa loo doonayaa waa raxmaddiisa, Oo miskiinkuna waa ka wanaagsan yahay beenaalaha.
The desirableness of a man [is] his kindness, And the poor [is] better than a liar.
23 Kii Rabbiga ka cabsada waxaa loo kaxeeyaa xagga nolosha, Wuuna sii dheregsanaan doonaa, Oo sharna loo keeni maayo.
The fear of YHWH [is] to life, And he remains satisfied—he is not charged with evil.
24 Ninkii caajis ahu wuxuu gacanta geliyaa xeedhada, Oo mar dambe xagga afkiisa uma soo celiyo.
The slothful has hidden his hand in a dish, Even to his mouth he does not bring it back.
25 Kan wax quudhsada garaac, oo garaadlaawaha ayaa miyir yeelan doona, Oo kii garasho leh canaano, oo isna aqoon buu sii korodhsan doonaa.
Strike a scorner, and the simple acts prudently, And give reproof to the intelligent, He understands knowledge.
26 Kii aabbihiis kharriba, hooyadiisna erya, Waa wiil ceeb keena oo cay soo jiida.
Whoever is spoiling a father causes a mother to flee, A son causing shame, and bringing confusion.
27 Wiilkaygiiyow ka joogso in markaad edbinta maqashid Aad dabadeed hadalka aqoonta ka ambatid.
Cease, my son, to hear instruction—To err from sayings of knowledge.
28 Markhaatigii waxmatare ahu gartuu quudhsadaa, Oo kan sharka leh afkiisuna wuxuu liqaa xumaan.
A worthless witness scorns judgment, And the mouth of the wicked swallows iniquity.
29 Kuwa wax quudhsada waxaa loo diyaariyey xukunno, Oo dhabarka nacasyadana waxaa loo diyaariyey karbaash.
Judgments have been prepared for scorners, And stripes for the back of fools!
