Hékmet toplighuchi 7
1 Yaxshi nam-abroy qimmetlik tutiyadin ewzel; ademning ölüsh küni tughulush künidin ewzeldur.
A [good] name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death than the day of one’s birth.
2 Matem tutush öyige bérish ziyapet-toy öyige bérishtin ewzel; chünki ashu yerde insanning aqiwiti ayan qilinidu; tirik bolghanlar buni könglige püküshi kérek.
It is better to go to the house of mourning, than to go to the house of feasting: for that is the end of all men; and the living will lay it to his heart.
3 Gheshlik külkidin ewzeldur; chünki chirayning perishanliqi bilen qelb yaxshilinidu.
Sorrow is better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made glad.
4 Dana kishining qelbi matem tutush öyide, biraq exmeqning qelbi tamashining öyididur.
The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.
5 Exmeqlerning naxshisini anglighandin köre, dana kishining tenbihini anglighin;
It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.
6 Chünki exmeqning külkisi qazan astidiki yantaqlarning paraslishidek, xalas; bumu bimeniliktur.
For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity.
7 Jebir-zulum dana ademni nadan’gha aylanduridu, Para bolsa qelbni halak qilidu.
Surely extortion maketh a wise man foolish; and a gift destroyeth the understanding.
8 Ishning ayighi béshidin ewzel; Sewr-taqetlik roh tekebbur rohtin ewzeldur.
Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof: [and] the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
9 Rohingda xapa bolushqa aldirima; Chünki xapiliq exmeqlerning baghrida qonup yatidu.
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.
10 «Némishqa burunqi künler hazirqi künlerdin ewzel?» — déme; chünki séning bundaq sorighining danaliqtin emes.
Say not thou, What is the cause that the former days were better than these? for thou dost not inquire wisely concerning this.
11 Danaliq mirasqa oxshash yaxshi ish, quyash nuri körgüchilerge paydiliqtur.
Wisdom is as good as an inheritance: yea, more excellent is it for them that see the sun.
12 Chünki danaliq pul panah bolghandek, panah bolidu; biraq danaliqning ewzelliki shuki, u öz igilirini hayatqa érishtüridu.
For wisdom is a defence, even as money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom preserveth the life of him that hath it.
13 Xudaning qilghanlirini oylap kör; chünki U egri qilghanni kim tüz qilalisun?
Consider the work of God: for who can make that straight, which he hath made crooked?
14 Awat künide huzur al; we yaman künidimu shuni oylap kör: — Xuda ularning birini, shundaqla yene birinimu teng yaratqandur; shuning bilen insan özi ketkendin kéyin bolidighan ishlarni bilip yételmeydu.
In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider: God hath even made the one side by side with the other, to the end that man should not find out any thing [that shall be] after him.
15 Men buning hemmisini bimene künlirimde körüp yettim; heqqaniy bir ademning öz heqqaniyliqi bilen yoqilip ketkenlikini kördüm, shuningdek rezil bir ademning öz rezilliki bilen ömrini uzaratqanliqini kördüm.
All this have I seen in the days of my vanity: there is a righteous man that perisheth in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man that prolongeth [his life] in his evil-doing.
16 Özüngni dep heddidin ziyade heqqaniy bolma; we özüngni dep heddidin ziyade dana bolma; sen öz-özüngni alaqzade qilmaqchimusen?
Be not righteous over much; neither make thyself over wise: why shouldest thou destroy thyself?
17 Özüngni dep heddidin ziyade rezil bolma, yaki exmeq bolma; öz ejiling toshmay turup ölmekchimusen?
Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish: why shouldest thou die before thy time?
18 Shunga, bu [agahni] ching tut, shuningdin u [agahnimu] qolungdin bermigining yaxshi; chünki Xudadin qorqidighan kishi her ikkisi bilen utuqluq bolidu.
It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this; yea, also from that withdraw not thine hand: for he that feareth God shall come forth of them all.
19 Danaliq dana kishini bir sheherni bashquridighan on hökümrandin ziyade küchlük qilidu.
Wisdom is a strength to the wise man more than ten rulers which are in a city.
20 Berheq, yer yüzide daim méhribanliq yürgüzidighan, gunah sadir qilmaydighan heqqaniy adem yoqtur.
Surely there is not a righteous man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.
21 Yene, xeqlerning hemmila gep-sözlirige anche diqqet qilip ketme; bolmisa, öz xizmetkaringning sanga lenet oqughanliqini anglap qélishing mumkin.
Also take not heed unto all words that are spoken; lest thou hear thy servant curse thee:
22 Chünki könglüngde, özüngningmu shuninggha oxshash bashqilargha köp qétim lenet qilghanliqingni obdan bilisen.
for oftentimes also thine own heart knoweth that thou thyself likewise hast cursed others.
23 Bularning hemmisini danaliq bilen sinap baqtim; men: «Dana bolimen» désemmu, emma u mendin yiraq idi.
All this have I proved in wisdom: I said, I will be wise; but it was far from me.
24 Barliq yüz bergen ishlar bolsa eqlimizdin yiraq, shuningdek intayin sirliqtur; kim uni izdep bilip yételisun?
That which is is far off, and exceeding deep; who can find it out?
25 Men chin könglümdin danaliq we eqliy bilimni bilishke, sürüshtürüshke we izdeshke, shundaqla rezillikning exmeqliqini, exmeqliqning telwilik ikenlikini bilip yétishke zéhnimni yighdim.
I turned about, and my heart [was set] to know and to search out, and to seek wisdom and the reason [of things], and to know that wickedness is folly, and that foolishness is madness:
26 Shuning bilen köngli tor we qiltaq, qolliri asaret bolghan ayalning ölümdin achchiq ikenlikini bayqidim; Xudani xursen qilidighan kishi uningdin özini qachuridu, biraq gunahkar adem uninggha tutulup qalidu.
And I find a thing more bitter than death, [even] the woman whose heart is snares and nets, [and] her hands [as] bands: whoso pleaseth God shall escape from her; but the sinner shall be taken by her.
27 Bu bayqighanlirimgha qara, — deydu hékmet toplighuchi — pakitlarni bir-birige baghlap sélishturup, eqil izdidim;
Behold, this have I found, saith the Preacher; [laying] one thing to another, to find out the account:
28 méning qelbim uni yenila izdimekte, biraq téxi tapalmidim! — Ming kishi arisida bir durus erkekni taptim — biraq shu ming kishi arisidin birmu durus ayalni tapalmidim.
which my soul still seeketh, but I have not found: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.
29 Mana körgin, méning bayqighanlirim peqet mushu birla — Xuda ademni esli durus yaratqan; biraq ademler bolsa nurghunlighan hiyle-mikirlerni izdeydu.
Behold, this only have I found, that God made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions.
