< Maahmaahyadii 28 >
1 Kuwa sharka lahu waxay cararaan iyadoo aan ciduna eryanayn, Laakiinse kuwa xaqa ahu waxay u dhiirran yihiin sida libaax oo kale.
A wicked man flees when no man pursues, but the righteous are bold as a lion.
2 Waddan xadgudubkiisa aawadiis amiirradu way badan yihiin, Laakiinse ninkii waxgarasho iyo aqoon leh dowladdiisu way sii raagtaa.
For the transgression of a land many are the rulers of it. But by men of understanding and knowledge the state shall be prolonged.
3 Miskiin masaakiinta dulmaa Waa sida roob dhulka xaadha oo aan cunto ka tegin.
A needy man who oppresses the poor is a sweeping rain which leaves no food.
4 Kuwa sharciga ka tagaa waxay ammaanaan kuwa sharka leh, Laakiinse kuwa sharciga dhawra ayaa iyaga la dirira.
Those who forsake the law praise the wicked, but such as keep the law contend with them.
5 Nimanka sharka lahu garsooridda ma gartaan, Laakiinse kuwa Rabbiga doondoonaa wax walbay gartaan.
Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek Jehovah understand all things.
6 Kii jidad qalloocan ku socda, in kastoo uu taajir yahay, Waxaa ka roon miskiinka daacadnimadiisa ku socda.
Better is the poor man who walks in his integrity, than he who is perverse in his ways, though he be rich.
7 Ku alla kii sharciga dhawraa waa wiil caqli leh, Laakiinse kii raaca kuwa cirta weyn, aabbihiisuu ceebeeyaa.
He who keeps the law is a wise son, but he who is a companion of gluttons shames his father.
8 Kii korsaar iyo ribo maalkiisa ku korodhsadaa, Wuxuu u ururin doonaa mid masaakiinta u naxariista.
He who augments his substance by interest and increase, gathers it for him who has pity on the poor.
9 Kii dhegtiisa ka leexiya inuu sharciga maqlo, Xataa baryootankiisu waa karaahiyo.
He who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination.
10 Ku alla kii kuwa xaqa ah jid shar ah ku ambiyaa, Isagaa ku dhici doona godkiisa, Laakiinse kuwa qummanu wax wanaagsan bay dhaxli doonaan.
He who causes the upright to go astray in an evil way, he shall fall himself into his own pit. But the perfect shall inherit good.
11 Taajirku waa isla caqli weyn yahay, Laakiinse miskiinka waxgarashada leh ayaa isaga kashifa.
The rich man is wise in his own conceit, but a poor man who has understanding searches him out.
12 Kuwa xaqa ahu markay guulaystaan, waxaa jirta ammaan weyn, Laakiinse markii kuwa sharka lahu sara kacaan dadku waa dhuuntaa.
When the righteous triumph, there is great glory, but when the wicked rise, men hide themselves.
13 Kii xadgudubyadiisa qariyaa ma liibaani doono, Laakiinse kii qirta oo haddana ka tagaa, naxariis buu heli doonaa.
He who covers his transgressions shall not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them shall obtain mercy.
14 Ninkii mar kasta cabsadaa waa barakaysan yahay, Laakiinse kii qalbigiisa sii adkeeyaa masiibuu ku dhici doonaa.
Happy is the man who fears always, but he who hardens his heart shall fall into mischief.
15 Taliyihii shar lahu wuxuu dadka masaakiintaa ku yahay Sida libaax ciyaya iyo sida orso weerar ah oo kale.
A roaring lion, and a ranging bear, is a wicked ruler over a poor people.
16 Amiirkii garaaddaranu waa nin dulun weyn, Laakiinse kii neceb faa'iidada xaqdarrada ah cimrigiisuu dheerayn doonaa.
The ruler who lacks understanding is also a great oppressor, but he who hates covetousness shall prolong his days.
17 Ninkii nin dhiiggiis qabaa Wuxuu u carari doonaa godka, oo ninna yaanu ka joojin.
A man who is laden with the blood of any person shall flee to the pit. Let no man stay him.
18 Ku alla kii si qumman u socda waa la samatabbixin doonaa, Laakiinse kii si qalloocan laba jid ugu socdaa haddiiba wuu dhici doonaa.
He who walks uprightly shall be delivered, but he who is perverse in his ways shall fall at once.
19 Kii dhulkiisa beertaa, cunto badan buu ka dhergi doonaa, Laakiinse kii waxmatarayaal raacaa wuxuu ka dhergi doonaa caydhnimo.
He who tills his land shall have plenty of bread, but he who follows after vanity shall have poverty enough.
20 Ninkii aamin ahu aad buu u barakoobi doonaa, Laakiinse kii taajirnimo ku degdegaa ma taqsiir la'aan doono.
A faithful man shall abound with blessings, but he who makes haste to be rich shall not be unpunished.
21 Ma wanaagsana in dadka loo kala eexdo, Iyo inuu nin xabbad kibis ah u xadgudbo toona.
To have respect of persons is not good, nor that a man should transgress for a piece of bread.
22 Kii taajirnimo ku degdegaa waa qumay, Mana oga inuu caydhoobi doono.
He who has an evil eye hastens after riches, and does not know that want shall come upon him.
23 Kii nin canaantaa wuxuu marka dambe heli doonaa Raallinimo ka badan kan carrabka ku faaniya.
He who rebukes a man shall afterward find more favor than he who flatters with the tongue.
24 Kii aabbihiis ama hooyadiis wax ka dhaca oo haddana yidhaahda, Taasu xadgudub ma aha, Wuxuu saaxiib la yahay kii wax dumiya.
He who robs his father or his mother, and says, It is no transgression, the same is the companion of a destroyer.
25 Kii hunguri weynu muran buu kiciyaa, Laakiinse kii Rabbiga isku halleeya waa la barwaaqaysiin doonaa.
He who is of a greedy spirit stirs up strife, but he who puts his trust in Jehovah shall be made fat.
26 Kii qalbigiisa isku halleeyaa waa nacas, Laakiinse ku alla kii si caqli ah u socda waa la samatabbixin doonaa.
He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, but he who walks wisely, he shall be delivered.
27 Kii miskiinka wax siiyaa ma baahan doono, Laakiinse kii indhaha ka qarsada aad baa loo habaari doonaa.
He who gives to the poor shall not lack, but he who hides his eyes shall have many a curse.
28 Markii kuwa sharka lahu kacaan dadku waa dhuuntaa, Laakiinse markay halligmaan, kuwa xaqa ahu way sii kordhaan.
When the wicked rise, men hide themselves, but when they perish, the righteous increase.
