Maahmaahyadii 24
1 Dad shar leh ha ka masayrin, Hana jeclaysan inaad iyaga la joogtid.
Be not thou envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them.
2 Waayo, qalbigoodu wuxuu ka fikiraa kharribaad, Oo bushimahooduna waxay ku hadlaan belaayo.
For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief.
3 Guri wuxuu ku dhismaa xigmad, Wuxuuna ku taagnaadaa waxgarasho,
Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established:
4 Qawladuhuna aqoontay kaga buuxsamaan Maal kasta oo qaali ah oo qurux badan.
And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches.
5 Ninkii caqli lahu xoog buu leeyahay, Oo ninkii aqoon lahuna itaal buu sii korodhsadaa.
A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.
6 Waayo, waa inaad talo wanaagsan ku dagaallantaa, Oo waxaa taliyayaal badan la jirta nabadgelyo.
For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.
7 Xigmaddu nacaska way ka dheer tahay, Isagu xagga iridda afkiisa kuma kala qaado.
Wisdom is too high for a fool: he openeth not his mouth in the gate.
8 Kii ku fikira inuu xumaan sameeyo, Waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa belaayo-sameeye.
He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.
9 Fikirka nacasnimadu waa dembi, Kii wax quudhsadaana waa u karaahiyo dadka.
The thought of foolishness is sin: and the scorner is an abomination to men.
10 Maalinta dhibaatada haddaad liicdid, Itaalkaagu waa yar yahay.
If thou faint in the day of adversity, thy strength is small.
11 Samatabbixi kuwa dhimashada loo wadayo, Kuwa ku dhow in la gowracona dib uga qabo.
If thou forbear to deliver them that are drawn unto death, and those that are ready to be slain;
12 Haddaad tidhaahdid, Bal eeg, waxan ma aannu garanayn, Kan qalbiyada miisaamaa miyaanu ka fiirsanayn? Oo kan naftaada dhawraa miyaanu ogayn? Oo miyaanu isagu nin walba ugu abaalgudayn sida shuqulkiisu yahay?
If thou sayest, Behold, we knew it not; doth not he that pondereth the heart consider it? and he that keepeth thy soul, doth not he know it? and shall not he render to every man according to his works?
13 Wiilkaygiiyow, malab cun, waayo, wuu wanaagsan yahay, Oo waxaad cuntaa awlallada malabka, taas oo kuu dhadhan macaan.
My son, eat thou honey, because it is good; and the honeycomb, which is sweet to thy taste:
14 Oo xigmadda aqoonteeduna sidaasoo kalay naftaada u ahaan doontaa, Oo haddaad iyada heshid waxaa jiri doona abaalgud, Oo rajadaaduna ma go'i doonto.
So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.
15 Sida nin shar leh, ha u gabban kan xaqa ah gurigiisa, Oo rugtiisa nasashadana ha kharribin.
Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:
16 Waayo, nin xaq ahu toddoba goor buu dhacaa, wuuna soo sara kacaa haddana, Laakiinse kuwa sharka leh waxaa lagu afgembiyaa belaayo.
For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
17 Ha rayrayn markuu cadowgaagu dhaco, Oo qalbigaaguna yaanu farxin markuu turunturoodo,
Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:
18 Waayo, waaba intaas oo Rabbigu taas arkaa, oo ay shar la ahaato indhihiisa, Oo uu dabadeedna cadhadiisa ka soo celiyaa isaga.
Lest Yhwh see it, and it displease him, and he turn away his wrath from him.
19 Xumaanfalayaasha aawadood ha isku dhibin, Kuwa sharka lehna ha ka masayrin,
Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked;
20 Waayo, kii shar leh abaalgud ma heli doono, Oo laambadda xumaanfalayaashana waa la bakhtiin doonaa.
For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
21 Wiilkaygiiyow, Rabbiga iyo boqorkaba ka cabso, Oo ha ku darsamin kuwa isrogrog badan,
My son, fear thou Yhwh and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:
22 Waayo, belaayadoodu si degdeg ah ayay u soo kici doontaa, Oo bal yaa yaqaan baabbi'inta labadoodaba?
For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?
23 Oo weliba waxyaalahanuna waa wixii ay kuwa caqliga lahaa yidhaahdeen. In dadka garsooridda loogu kala eexdaa ma wanaagsana.
These things also belong to the wise. It is not good to have respect of persons in judgment.
24 Kii kan shar leh ku yidhaahda, Xaq baad tahay, Dadyowga ayaa habaari doona, oo quruumuhuna way karhi doonaan isaga,
He that saith unto the wicked, Thou art righteous; him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him:
25 Laakiinse kuwii isaga canaantaa farxad bay yeelan doonaan, Oo dushoodana waxaa ku soo degi doonta barako wanaagsan.
But to them that rebuke him shall be delight, and a good blessing shall come upon them.
26 Kii jawaab qumman ku jawaabaa Bushimuhuu dhunkadaa.
Every man shall kiss his lips that giveth a right answer.
27 Shuqulkaaga dibadda ku hagaajiso, Oo beerta ku diyaarso, Oo dabadeedna gurigaaga dhiso.
Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field; and afterwards build thine house.
28 Deriskaaga sababla'aan markhaati ha ku furin, Oo bushimahaagana ha ku khiyaanayn.
Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips.
29 Hana odhan, Wixii uu igu sameeyey oo kale ayaan ku samayn doonaa, Oo ninkii sidii shuqulkiisu ahaa ayaan u abaalmarin doonaa.
Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me: I will render to the man according to his work.
30 Waxaan ag maray ninka caajiska ah beertiisa, Iyo ninka garaadka daran beercanabkiisa,
I went by the field of the slothful, and by the vineyard of the man void of understanding;
31 Oo bal eeg, kulligood waxaa ka baxay qodxan, Oo dhammaantoodna waxaa qariyey maraboob, Oo derbigoodii dhagaxa ahaana waa dumay.
And, lo, it was all grown over with thorns, and nettles had covered the face thereof, and the stone wall thereof was broken down.
32 Markaasaan eegay oo aad uga fiirsaday, Waan fiiriyey oo wax ka bartay.
Then I saw, and considered it well: I looked upon it, and received instruction.
33 Weliba in yar baad seexanaysaa, oo in yar baad gam'aysaa, Oo in yar baad gacmaha hurdo u laabaysaa,
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
34 Haddaba caydhnimo waa kuu iman doontaa sida tuug oo kale, Oo baahina sida nin hub sita oo kale.
So shall thy poverty come as one that travelleth; and thy want as an armed man.
