Maahmaahyadii 30
1 Kuwanu waa erayadii Aaguur ina Yaaqeh, oo ahaa reer Masaa. Ninku wuxuu la hadlay Iitii'eel, iyo xataa Iitii'eel iyo Ukaal, oo ku yidhi,
The words of Agur, the son of Jakeh, from Massa. The man says: I am full of weariness, O God, I am full of weariness; O God, I have come to an end:
2 Hubaal anigu waan ka doqonnimo weynahay nin kastaba, Oo dad waxgarashadiisana ma lihi.
For I am more like a beast than any man, I have no power of reasoning like a man:
3 Xigmad ma aan baran, Aqoonta Kan quduuska ahna ma aqaan.
I have not got wisdom by teaching, so that I might have the knowledge of the Holy One.
4 Yaa samada u baxay, oo ka soo degay? Yaa dabaysha gacmihiisa ku soo ururshay? Yaa biyaha dharkiisa ku guntay? Yaa dhulka darafyadiisa oo dhan dhisay? Magicii, wiilkiisana magicii, haddaad taqaan?
Who has gone up to heaven and come down? who has taken the winds in his hands, prisoning the waters in his robe? by whom have all the ends of the earth been fixed? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if you are able to say?
5 Eray kasta oo Ilaah waa daahir; Oo isagu wuxuu gaashaan u yahay kuwa isaga aaminsan.
Every word of God is tested: he is a breastplate to those who put their faith in him.
6 Erayadiisa waxba ha ku darin, Waaba intaas oo uu ku canaantaa, oo lagu ogaadaa inaad beenaaleh tahay.
Make no addition to his words, or he will make clear your error, and you will be seen to be false.
7 Laba waxyaalood ayaan ku weyddiistay, Iyaga ha ii diidin intaanan dhiman.
I have made request to you for two things; do not keep them from me before my death:
8 Wax aan waxtar lahayn iyo been iga fogee, Oo caydhnimo iyo taajirnimo midna ha i siin. Igu quudi cunto aanan ka maarmin,
Put far from me all false and foolish things: do not give me great wealth or let me be in need, but give me only enough food:
9 Waaba intaasoo intaan dhergo, aan adiga ku inkiraaye, oo aan idhaahdaa, Waa ayo Rabbigu? Amase waaba intaasoo aan miskiin noqdaa, oo intaan wax xado, Aan magaca Ilaahayga si been ah ugu hadal qaadaaye.
For fear that if I am full, I may be false to you and say, Who is the Lord? or if I am poor, I may become a thief, using the name of my God wrongly.
10 Addoon sayidkiisa xan ha uga sheegin, Waaba intaas oo uu ku habaaraa, oo eed lagugu helaaye.
Do not say evil of a servant to his master, or he will put a curse on you, and you will get into trouble.
11 Waxaa jira farcan aabbahood inkaara, Oo aan hooyadoodna u ducayn.
There is a generation who put a curse on their father, and do not give a blessing to their mother.
12 Waxaa jira farcan isla daahirsan, Oo weliba aan nijaastoodii ka maydhmin.
There is a generation who seem to themselves to be free from sin, but are not washed from their unclean ways.
13 Waxaa jira farcan indhahoodu aad u sarreeyaan! Oo daboolka indhahoodana kor bay u qaadaan.
There is a generation, O how full of pride are their eyes! O how their brows are lifted up!
14 Waxaa jira farcan ilkahoodu sida seefo oo kale yihiin, oo gowsahooduna sida mindiyo oo kale yihiin, Si ay masaakiinta dhulka uga baabbi'iyaan, oo ay kuwa baahanna dadka dhexdiisa uga dhammeeyaan.
There is a generation whose teeth are like swords, their strong teeth like knives, for the destruction of the poor from the earth, and of those who are in need from among men.
15 Culaacushu waxay leedahay laba gabdhood, oo leh, Na sii, Na sii. Waxaa jira saddex waxyaalood oo aan weligood dhergin, Haah, oo afar aan odhan, Bes, nagu filan;
The night-spirit has two daughters, Give, give. There are three things which are never full, even four which never say, Enough:
16 Waxaana weeye qabriga, iyo maxalka aan wax dhalayn, Iyo dhulka aan biyo ka dhergayn, Iyo dabka aan odhan, Bes, igu filan. (Sheol h7585)
The underworld, and the woman without a child; the earth which never has enough water, and the fire which never says, Enough. (Sheol h7585)
17 Isha aabbaheed ku majaajiloota, Oo quudhsata inay hooyadeed addeecdo, Waxaa la soo bixi doona tukayaasha dooxada, Oo waxaa cuni doona gorgorrada.
The eye which makes sport of a father, and sees no value in a mother when she is old will be rooted out by the ravens of the valley, and be food for the young eagles.
18 Waxaa jira saddex waxyaalood oo anigu aan aad ula yaabo, Haah, afar baan garan waayay,
There are three things, the wonder of which overcomes me, even four things outside my knowledge:
19 Oo iyana waxaa weeye siduu gorgor hawada u duulo, Siduu masna dhagax ugu socdo, Siday doonnina badda u maaxdo, Iyo siduu nin gabadh ula macaamiloodo.
The way of an eagle in the air; the way of a snake on a rock; the way of a ship in the heart of the sea; and the way of a man with a girl.
20 Sidaas oo kale waxaa ah naag dhillo ah sideeda, Taasoo intay wax cunto afka tirtirta, Oo haddana tidhaahda, Anigu waxba xumaan ma aan samayn.
This is the way of a false wife; she takes food, and, cleaning her mouth, says, I have done no wrong.
21 Saddex waxyaalood ayaa dhulku la gariiraa, Oo afar baanu qaadan karin,
For three things the earth is moved, and there are four which it will not put up with:
22 Waxaana weeye addoon markuu boqor noqdo, Iyo nacas markuu cunto ka dhergo,
A servant when he becomes a king; a man without sense when his wealth is increased;
23 Iyo naag la nacay markay guursato, Iyo gabadh addoon ahu markay sayidaddeedii meesheeda gasho.
A hated woman when she is married; and a servant-girl who takes the place of her master's wife.
24 Waxaa jira afar waxyaalood oo dhulka ku yaryar, Laakiinse aad iyo aad u caqli badan.
There are four things which are little on the earth, but they are very wise:
25 Qudhaanjadu waa sida dad aan xoog badnayn, Laakiinse waxay cuntadooda soo diyaarsadaan guga.
The ants are a people not strong, but they put by a store of food in the summer;
26 Walooyinku waa qoon taagdaran, Oo haddana waxay guryahooda ka samaystaan dhagaxyada dhexdooda;
The conies are only a feeble people, but they make their houses in the rocks;
27 Ayaxu boqor ma leh, Weliba dhammaantood guuto guuto ayay u socdaan.
The locusts have no king, but they all go out in bands;
28 Qorratadu waa wax gacanta lagu qaban karo, Weliba waxay joogtaa guryaha boqorrada.
You may take the lizard in your hands, but it is in kings' houses.
29 Waxaa jira saddex waxyaalood oo si fiican u socda, Haah, oo afar waa socod wanaagsan yihiin.
There are three things whose steps are good to see, even four whose goings are fair:
30 Aar libaax oo ah kan xayawaanka ugu xoogga badan, Oo aan weliba midna dib uga noqon,
The lion, which is strongest among beasts, not turning from his way for any;
31 Diiqa xarragoonaya, iyo orgiga; Iyo boqorka aanay dadku gees ka ahayn.
The war-horse, and the he-goat, and the king when his army is with him.
32 Haddaad nacasnimo samaysay adoo isa sarraysiinaya, Ama aad wax shar ah ka fikirtay, Gacanta afka saar.
If you have done foolishly in lifting yourself up, or if you have had evil designs, put your hand over your mouth.
33 Waayo, caanihii la lulaa subag bay soo saaraan, Sankii la maroojiyaana dhiig buu keenaa, Sidaas oo kalena cadhadii la qasbaa dirir bay keentaa.
The shaking of milk makes butter, and the twisting of the nose makes blood come: so the forcing of wrath is a cause of fighting.
