Maahmaahyadii 31
1 Kuwanu waa erayadii Lemuu'eel oo ahaa boqorkii Masaa ay hooyadiis bartay isaga.
Words of Lemuel, a king, a declaration that his mother taught him:
2 Waa maxay, wiilkaygiiyow? Waa maxay, wiilkii uurkaygow? Waa maxay, wiilkii nidarradaydow?
“What, my son? And what, son of my womb? And what, son of my vows?
3 Xooggaaga naago ha siinin, Dawyadaadana ha siinin kuwa boqorrada dumiya.
Do not give your strength to women, And your ways to wiping away of kings.
4 Lemuu'eelow, uma eka boqorrada, uma eka boqorradu inay khamri cabbaan, Oo amiirradana uma eka inay waxa lagu sakhraamo damcaan,
[It is] not for kings, O Lemuel, Not for kings, to drink wine, And for princes—a desire of strong drink.
5 Waaba intaasoo ay cabbaan, oo ay sharciga illoobaan, Oo ay kuwa dhibaataysan midkood gartiisa qalloociyaan.
Lest he drink, and forget the decree, And change the judgment of any of the sons of affliction.
6 Waxa lagu sakhraamo siiya ka dhimashada ku dhow, Oo khamrigana waxaad siisaan kuwa naftoodu la qadhaadhaatay.
Give strong drink to the perishing, And wine to the bitter in soul,
7 Ha cabbo, oo caydhnimadiisa ha illoobo, Oo dhibaatadiisana yaanu mar dambe soo xusuusan innaba.
He drinks, and forgets his poverty, And he does not remember his misery again.
8 Afka u fur carrablaawaha aawadiis, Si aad kuwa baabba'aya oo dhan u xaq mariso.
Open your mouth for the mute, For the right of all sons of change.
9 Afka fur, oo si xaq ah u garsoor, Oo miskiinka iyo saboolka baahanba gartooda u qaad.
Open your mouth, judge righteously, Both the cause of the poor and needy!”
10 Bal yaa heli kara naag wanaagsan? Waayo, qiimaheedu waa ka sii badan yahay xataa luul.
[ALEPH-BET] A woman of worth who finds? Indeed, her price [is] far above rubies.
11 Waayo, qalbiga ninkeedu iyaduu isku halleeyaa, Oo isagu innaba uma baahnaan doono wax booli ah.
The heart of her husband has trusted in her, And he does not lack spoil.
12 Cimrigeeda oo dhan isaga wanaag bay u samayn doontaa, Oo innaba xumaan kuma samayn doonto.
She has done him good, and not evil, All [the] days of her life.
13 Waxay doondoontaa dhogor idaad iyo geed linen la yidhaahdo. Oo iyadoo raalli ku ah ayay gacmaheeda ku shaqaysaa.
She has sought wool and flax, And with delight she works [with] her hands.
14 Iyadu waa sida doonniyaha baayacmushtariga, Oo cuntadeeda waxay ka keentaa meel fog.
She has been as ships of the merchant, She brings in her bread from afar.
15 Waxay kacdaa iyadoo weli ay habeennimo tahay, Oo dadka reerkeeda ayay cunto siisaa, Oo gabdhaheedana hawshooday siisaa,
Indeed, she rises while yet night, And gives food to her household, And a portion to her girls.
16 Iyadu waxay ka fikirtaa beer, wayna soo iibsataa, Oo midhaha gacmaheeda ayay beercanab ku beerataa.
She has considered a field, and takes it, She has planted a vineyard from the fruit of her hands.
17 Waxay dhexda ku xidhataa xoog, Oo gacmaheedana way xoogaysaa.
She has girded her loins with might, And strengthens her arms.
18 Waxay eegtaa in baayacmushtarigeedu wanaagsan yahay; Laambaddeeduna habeenkii ma bakhtido.
She has perceived when her merchandise [is] good, Her lamp is not extinguished in the night.
19 Waxay gacmaheeda ku fidisaa dunmiiqa, Oo sacabbadeeduna waxay qabtaan usha wareegta.
She has sent forth her hands on a spindle, And her hands have held a distaff.
20 Waxay sacabkeeda u furtaa miskiinka, Oo gacmaheedana waxay u fidisaa saboolka baahan.
She has spread forth her hand to the poor, Indeed, she sent forth her hands to the needy.
21 Dadka reerkeeda ugama cabsato dhaxanta barafka cad, Waayo, xaaskeeda oo dhammu waxay wada qabaan dhar labanlaab ah.
She is not afraid of her household from snow, For all her household are clothed [with] scarlet.
22 Waxay samaysataa durraaxado daabac leh, Oo dharkeeduna waxaa weeye dhar aad u wanaagsan oo guduudan.
She has made ornamental coverings for herself, Silk and purple [are] her clothing.
23 Ninkeedana waxaa laga yaqaan irdaha magaalada, Markuu dhex fadhiisto waayeellada waddanka.
Her husband is known in the gates, In his sitting with [the] elderly of [the] land.
24 Waxay samaysaa dhar wanaagsan, wayna iibisaa, Oo baayacmushtarigana waxay ka iibisaa boqorro dhexda lagu xidho.
She has made linen garments, and sells, And she has given a girdle to the merchant.
25 Xoog iyo sharaf ayaa iyada dhar u ah; Oo wakhtiga soo socda way ku qososhaa.
Strength and honor [are] her clothing, And she rejoices at a latter day.
26 Afkeeda waxay u kala qaaddaa xigmad; Oo carrabkeedana waxaa saaran sharciga raxmadda.
She has opened her mouth in wisdom, And the law of kindness [is] on her tongue.
27 Waxay aad u xannaanaysaa reerkeeda, Oo kibista caajisnimadana ma cunto.
She [is] watching the ways of her household, And she does not eat bread of sloth.
28 Carruurteedu way kacaan oo waxay ugu yeedhaan tan barakaysan, Oo weliba ninkeeduna wuu ammaanaa, isagoo leh;
Her sons have risen up, and pronounce her blessed, Her husband, and he praises her,
29 Dumar badan baa wanaag sameeyey, Laakiinse adigu waad ka sii wanaagsan tahay dhammaantood.
“The daughters who have done worthily [are] many, You have gone up above them all.”
30 Suuradwacnaantu waa khiyaano miidhan, oo quruxduna waa ceeryaamo oo kale, Laakiinse naagtii Rabbiga ka cabsata waa la ammaani doonaa.
Favor [is] deceitful, and beauty [is] vain, A woman fearing YHWH, she may boast herself.
31 Midhihii gacmaheeda wax ka siiya, Oo shuqulladeeduna iyada ha ku ammaaneen irdaha magaalada.
Give to her of the fruit of her hands, And her works praise her in the gates!
