Maahmaahyadii 24
1 Dad shar leh ha ka masayrin, Hana jeclaysan inaad iyaga la joogtid.
Do not be envious of evil men, And do not desire to be with them.
2 Waayo, qalbigoodu wuxuu ka fikiraa kharribaad, Oo bushimahooduna waxay ku hadlaan belaayo.
For their heart meditates [on] destruction, And their lips speak perverseness.
3 Guri wuxuu ku dhismaa xigmad, Wuxuuna ku taagnaadaa waxgarasho,
A house is built by wisdom, And it establishes itself by understanding.
4 Qawladuhuna aqoontay kaga buuxsamaan Maal kasta oo qaali ah oo qurux badan.
And the inner parts are filled by knowledge, [With] all precious and pleasant wealth.
5 Ninkii caqli lahu xoog buu leeyahay, Oo ninkii aqoon lahuna itaal buu sii korodhsadaa.
The wise [is] mighty in strength, And a man of knowledge is strengthening power,
6 Waayo, waa inaad talo wanaagsan ku dagaallantaa, Oo waxaa taliyayaal badan la jirta nabadgelyo.
For you make war for yourself by plans, And deliverance [is] in a multitude of counselors.
7 Xigmaddu nacaska way ka dheer tahay, Isagu xagga iridda afkiisa kuma kala qaado.
Wisdom [is] high for a fool, he does not open his mouth in the gate.
8 Kii ku fikira inuu xumaan sameeyo, Waxaa loogu yeedhi doonaa belaayo-sameeye.
Whoever is devising to do evil, They call him a master of wicked thoughts.
9 Fikirka nacasnimadu waa dembi, Kii wax quudhsadaana waa u karaahiyo dadka.
The thought of folly [is] sin, And a scorner [is] an abomination to man.
10 Maalinta dhibaatada haddaad liicdid, Itaalkaagu waa yar yahay.
You have showed yourself weak in a day of adversity, Your power is restricted,
11 Samatabbixi kuwa dhimashada loo wadayo, Kuwa ku dhow in la gowracona dib uga qabo.
If [from] delivering those taken to death, And you take back those slipping to the slaughter.
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?
When you say, “Behold, we did not know this.” Is the Ponderer of hearts not He who understands? And the Keeper of your soul He who knows? And He has rendered to man according to his work.
13 Wiilkaygiiyow, malab cun, waayo, wuu wanaagsan yahay, Oo waxaad cuntaa awlallada malabka, taas oo kuu dhadhan macaan.
My son, eat honey that [is] good, And the honeycomb [is] sweet to your palate.
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 [is] the knowledge of wisdom to your soul, If you have found that there is a posterity And your hope is not cut off.
15 Sida nin shar leh, ha u gabban kan xaqa ah gurigiisa, Oo rugtiisa nasashadana ha kharribin.
Do not lay wait, O wicked one, At the habitation of the righteous. Do not spoil 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 the righteous fall and rise seven [times], And the wicked stumble in evil.
17 Ha rayrayn markuu cadowgaagu dhaco, Oo qalbigaaguna yaanu farxin markuu turunturoodo,
Do not rejoice in the falling of your enemy, And do not let your heart be joyful in his stumbling,
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, and [it be] evil in His eyes, And He has turned His anger from off him.
19 Xumaanfalayaasha aawadood ha isku dhibin, Kuwa sharka lehna ha ka masayrin,
Do not fret yourself at evildoers, do not be envious at the wicked,
20 Waayo, kii shar leh abaalgud ma heli doono, Oo laambadda xumaanfalayaashana waa la bakhtiin doonaa.
For there is not a posterity to the evil, The lamp of the wicked is extinguished.
21 Wiilkaygiiyow, Rabbiga iyo boqorkaba ka cabso, Oo ha ku darsamin kuwa isrogrog badan,
Fear YHWH, my son, and the king, Do not mix yourself up with changers,
22 Waayo, belaayadoodu si degdeg ah ayay u soo kici doontaa, Oo bal yaa yaqaan baabbi'inta labadoodaba?
For their calamity rises suddenly, And the ruin of them both—who knows!
23 Oo weliba waxyaalahanuna waa wixii ay kuwa caqliga lahaa yidhaahdeen. In dadka garsooridda loogu kala eexdaa ma wanaagsana.
These are also for the wise: [It] is not good to discern faces in judgment.
24 Kii kan shar leh ku yidhaahda, Xaq baad tahay, Dadyowga ayaa habaari doona, oo quruumuhuna way karhi doonaan isaga,
Whoever is saying to the wicked, “You [are] righteous,” Peoples execrate him—nations abhor him.
25 Laakiinse kuwii isaga canaantaa farxad bay yeelan doonaan, Oo dushoodana waxaa ku soo degi doonta barako wanaagsan.
And it is pleasant to those reproving, And a good blessing comes on them.
26 Kii jawaab qumman ku jawaabaa Bushimuhuu dhunkadaa.
He who is returning straightforward words kisses lips.
27 Shuqulkaaga dibadda ku hagaajiso, Oo beerta ku diyaarso, Oo dabadeedna gurigaaga dhiso.
Prepare your work in an out-place, And make it ready in the field—go afterward, Then you have built your house.
28 Deriskaaga sababla'aan markhaati ha ku furin, Oo bushimahaagana ha ku khiyaanayn.
Do not be a witness against your neighbor for nothing, Or you have enticed with your lips.
29 Hana odhan, Wixii uu igu sameeyey oo kale ayaan ku samayn doonaa, Oo ninkii sidii shuqulkiisu ahaa ayaan u abaalmarin doonaa.
Do not say, “As he did to me, so I do to him, I render to each according to his work.”
30 Waxaan ag maray ninka caajiska ah beertiisa, Iyo ninka garaadka daran beercanabkiisa,
I passed by near the field of a slothful man, And near the vineyard of a man lacking heart.
31 Oo bal eeg, kulligood waxaa ka baxay qodxan, Oo dhammaantoodna waxaa qariyey maraboob, Oo derbigoodii dhagaxa ahaana waa dumay.
And behold, it has gone up—all of it—thorns! Nettles have covered its face, And its stone wall has been broken down.
32 Markaasaan eegay oo aad uga fiirsaday, Waan fiiriyey oo wax ka bartay.
And I see—I set my heart, I have seen—I have received instruction,
33 Weliba in yar baad seexanaysaa, oo in yar baad gam'aysaa, Oo in yar baad gacmaha hurdo u laabaysaa,
A little sleep—a little slumber—A little folding of the hands to lie down.
34 Haddaba caydhnimo waa kuu iman doontaa sida tuug oo kale, Oo baahina sida nin hub sita oo kale.
And your poverty has come [as] a traveler, And your want as an armed man!
