< Maahmaahyadii 6 >

1 Wiilkaygiiyow, haddaad deriskaaga dammiin u noqotid, Ama haddaad shisheeye gacanta dhaar ugu dhiibtid,
My son, if you be guarantor for your friend, if you have stricken your hand with a stranger,
2 Markaas waxaa lagugu dabay erayada afkaaga, Oo waxaa lagugu qabtay erayada afkaaga.
You are snared with the words of your mouth, you are taken with the words of your mouth.
3 Haddaba, wiilkaygiiyow, bal waxan samee oo isa samatabbixi, Waayo, gacantii deriskaagii waad gashay; U tag, oo is-hoosaysii, oo deriskaaga bari.
Do this now, my son, and deliver yourself, when you are come into the hand of your friend; go, humble yourself, and make sure your friend.
4 Indhahaaga hurdo ha isugu keenin, Oo indhahaaga daboolkoodana lulo ha isugu qaban.
Give not sleep to your eyes, nor slumber to your eyelids.
5 Isu samatabbixi sida cawl gacanta ugaadhsadaha uga baxsato, Iyo sida shimbir gacanta shimbirdabaha uga baxsato.
Deliver yourself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
6 Kaaga caajiska ahow, bal qudhaanjada u tag, Oo bal jidadkeeda u fiirso oo caqli yeelo,
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise:
7 Iyadoo aan lahayn madaxweyne, Sirkaal iyo taliye toona,
Which having no guide, overseer, or ruler,
8 Ayay guga cuntadeeda soo diyaarsataa, Oo quudkeedana waxay soo urursataa wakhtiga beeraha la goosto.
Provides her food in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest.
9 Haddaba kaaga caajiska ahow, ilaa goormaad hurdaysaa? Goormaadse hurdadaada ka toosaysaa?
How long will you sleep, O sluggard? when will you arise out of your sleep?
10 Weliba, in yar baad seexataa, in yar baad lulootaa, Oo in yar baad gacmaha hurdo aawadeed u laabataa,
Yet a little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to sleep:
11 Hadda caydhinimadaadu waxay u iman doontaa sida mid dad dhaca, Oo baahidaaduna waxay u iman doontaa sida nin hub wata.
So shall your poverty come as one that travels, and your lack as an armed man.
12 Qofkii waxmatare ah, iyo ninkii sharrow ahuba, Wuxuu ku socdaa af qalloocan;
A naughty person, a wicked man, walks with a perverse mouth.
13 Indhihiisuu ku baaqaa, oo cagihiisuu ku hadlaa, Oo faruhuu wax ku baraa;
He winks with his eyes, he speaks with his feet, he teaches with his fingers;
14 Qalbigiisa qalloocnaan baa ku jirta, had iyo goorna wuxuu ku fikiraa shar, Oo wuxuu beeraa muran.
Perverseness is in his heart, he devises mischief continually; he sows discord.
15 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed masiibadiisu degdeg bay u iman doontaa, Oo dhaqso buu u jabi doonaa, dawona ma leh.
Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.
16 Waxaa jira lix waxyaalood oo uu Rabbigu neceb yahay, Haah, toddoba ayaa naftiisu aad u karahdaa,
These six things does the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 Waana indho kibir badan, carrab been sheega, Iyo gacmo dhiig aan eed lahayn daadiya,
A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 Qalbi male shar ah hindisa, Iyo cago xumaan ku degdega,
An heart that devises wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 Markhaati been ah oo been sheega, Iyo kii muran dad walaalo ah ku dhex beera.
A false witness that speaks lies, and he that sows discord among brethren.
20 Wiilkaygiiyow, qaynuunka aabbahaa xaji, Oo amarka hooyadaana ha ka tegin.
My son, keep your father's commandment, and forsake not the law of your mother:
21 Had iyo goorba qalbiga ku sido, Oo qoortana ku xidho.
Bind them continually upon your heart, and tie them about your neck.
22 Markaad socotid wuu ku hoggaamin doonaa, Oo markaad seexatidna wuu ku dhawri doonaa, Markaad toostidna wuu kula hadli doonaa.
When you go, it shall lead you; when you sleep, it shall keep you; and when you awake, it shall talk with you.
23 Waayo, qaynuunku waa laambad, amarkuna waa iftiin, Oo canaanashada edbintuna waa jidkii nolosha,
For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
24 Inay kaa dhawraan naagta sharka ah, Iyo sasabashada carrabka naagta qalaad.
To keep you from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
25 Quruxdeeda qalbigaaga ha ka damcin, Oo yaanay indhaheeda daboolkooda kugu sasaban.
Lust not after her beauty in your heart; neither let her take you with her eyelids.
26 Waayo, naag dhillo ah aawadeed waxaa nin la gaadhsiiyaa go' kibis ah, Oo dhilladuna waxay ugaadhsataa nafta qaaligaa.
For by means of a whorish woman a man is brought to a piece of bread: and the adultress will hunt for the precious life.
27 Miyuu nin laabta dab ku qaadi karaa, Iyadoo aan dharkiisu guban?
Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
28 Miyuu mid dhuxul kulul ku kor socon karaa, Iyadoo aan cagihiisu guban?
Can one go upon hot coals, and his feet not be burned?
29 Haddaba sidaas oo kaluu noqdaa kii naagta deriskiisa u tagaa, Oo ku alla kii iyada taabtaaba ma taqsiir la'aan doono.
So he that goes in to his neighbour's wife; whosoever touches her shall not be innocent.
30 Dadku tuug ma quudhsadaan hadduu wax xado Inuu naftiisa dhergiyo markuu gaajoodo,
Men do not despise a thief, if he steal to satisfy his soul when he is hungry;
31 Laakiinse haddii isaga la qabto waa inuu toddoba jibbaar u magdhabaa, Waa inuu ku bixiyaa waxa gurigiisa yaal oo dhan.
But if he be found, he shall restore sevenfold; he shall give all the substance of his house.
32 Kii naag ka sinaystaa wuu caqli daranyahay, Oo kii sidaas yeelaa naftiisuu halligaa.
But whoso commits adultery with a woman lacks understanding: he that does it destroys his own soul.
33 Oo wuxuu heli doonaa dhaawacyo iyo sharafdarro; Oo ceebtiisana lama tirtiri doono innaba.
A wound and dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall not be wiped away.
34 Waayo, hinaaso waa nin cadhadiis. Maalinta aarsashadana isagu ma tudhi doono.
For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
35 Isagu innaba mag kaa qaadan maayo, oo sinaba kuula heshiin maayo, In kastoo aad hadiyado badan siisid.
He will not regard any ransom; neither will he rest content, though you give many gifts.
