< اَلْجَامِعَةِ 7 >

اَلصِّيتُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱلدُّهْنِ ٱلطَّيِّبِ، وَيَوْمُ ٱلْمَمَاتِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ يَوْمِ ٱلْوِلَادَةِ. ١ 1
[is] good A name more than ointment good and [the] day of death more than [the] day of being born he.
اَلذَّهَابُ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلنَّوْحِ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱلذَّهَابِ إِلَى بَيْتِ ٱلْوَلِيمَةِ، لِأَنَّ ذَاكَ نِهَايَةُ كُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ، وَٱلْحَيُّ يَضَعُهُ فِي قَلْبِهِ. ٢ 2
[is] good To go to a house of mourning more than to go to a house of a feast in that this [is] [the] end of every person and the living person he will give to heart his.
اَلْحُزْنُ خَيْرٌ مِنَ ٱلضَّحِكِ، لِأَنَّهُ بِكَآبَةِ ٱلْوَجْهِ يُصْلَحُ ٱلْقَلْبُ. ٣ 3
[is] good Vexation more than laughter for by sadness of face it will be good a heart.
قَلْبُ ٱلْحُكَمَاءِ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلنَّوْحِ، وَقَلْبُ ٱلْجُهَّالِ فِي بَيْتِ ٱلْفَرَحِ. ٤ 4
[the] heart of Wise people [is] in a house of mourning and [the] heart of fools [is] in a house of gladness.
سَمْعُ ٱلِٱنْتِهَارِ مِنَ ٱلْحَكِيمِ خَيْرٌ لِلْإِنْسَانِ مِنْ سَمْعِ غِنَاءِ ٱلْجُهَّالِ، ٥ 5
[is] good To listen to [the] rebuke of a wise [person] more than someone [who] listens to [the] song of fools.
لِأَنَّهُ كَصَوْتِ ٱلشَّوْكِ تَحْتَ ٱلْقِدْرِ هَكَذَا ضَحِكُ ٱلْجُهَّالِ. هَذَا أَيْضًا بَاطِلٌ. ٦ 6
For like [the] sound of thorns under the pot so [the] laughter of the fool and also this [is] futility.
لِأَنَّ ٱلظُّلْمَ يُحَمِّقُ ٱلْحَكِيمَ، وَٱلْعَطِيَّةَ تُفْسِدُ ٱلْقَلْبَ. ٧ 7
For oppression it will make look foolish a wise [person] so it may destroy a heart a bribe.
نِهَايَةُ أَمْرٍ خَيْرٌ مِنْ بَدَايَتِهِ. طُولُ ٱلرُّوحِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ تَكَبُّرِ ٱلرُّوحِ. ٨ 8
[is] good [the] end of A matter more than beginning its [is] good a [person] patient of spirit more than a [person] proud of spirit.
لَا تُسْرِعْ بِرُوحِكَ إِلَى ٱلْغَضَبِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْغَضَبَ يَسْتَقِرُّ فِي حِضْنِ ٱلْجُهَّالِ. ٩ 9
May not you be hasty in spirit your to become angry for anger in [the] bosom of fools it settles.
لَا تَقُلْ: «لِمَاذَا كَانَتِ ٱلْأَيَّامُ ٱلْأُولَى خَيْرًا مِنْ هَذِهِ؟» لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ عَنْ حِكْمَةٍ تَسْأَلُ عَنْ هَذَا. ١٠ 10
May not you say why? was it that the days former they were good more than these for not from wisdom you have asked on this.
اَلْحِكْمَةُ صَالِحَةٌ مِثْلُ ٱلْمِيرَاثِ، بَلْ أَفْضَلُ لِنَاظِرِي ٱلشَّمْسِ. ١١ 11
[is] good Wisdom with an inheritance and [is] an advantage to [those who] see the sun.
لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِي فِي ظِلِّ ٱلْحِكْمَةِ هُوَ فِي ظِلِّ ٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَفَضْلُ ٱلْمَعْرِفَةِ هُوَ إِنَّ ٱلْحِكْمَةَ تُحْيِي أَصْحَابَهَا. ١٢ 12
For [is] a shade wisdom [is] a shade money and [the] advantage of knowledge wisdom it preserves alive owners its.
اُنْظُرْ عَمَلَ ٱللهِ: لِأَنَّهُ مَنْ يَقْدِرُ عَلَى تَقْوِيمِ مَا قَدْ عَوَّجَهُ؟ ١٣ 13
Consider [the] work of God for who? is he able to straighten [that] which he has bent it.
فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْخَيْرِ كُنْ بِخَيْرٍ، وَفِي يَوْمِ ٱلشَّرِّ ٱعْتَبِرْ. إِنَّ ٱللهَ جَعَلَ هَذَا مَعَ ذَاكَ، لِكَيْلَا يَجِدَ ٱلْإِنْسَانُ شَيْئًا بَعْدَهُ. ١٤ 14
On a day of good be in good and on a day of adversity consider also this exactly as this he has made God on reason that not he will find out humankind after him anything.
قَدْ رَأَيْتُ ٱلْكُلَّ فِي أَيَّامِ بُطْلِي: قَدْ يَكُونُ بَارٌّ يَبِيدُ فِي بِرِّهِ، وَقَدْ يَكُونُ شِرِّيرٌ يَطُولُ فِي شَرِّهِ. ١٥ 15
Everything I have seen in [the] days of futility my there [is] a righteous [person] [who] perishes in righteousness his and there [is] a wicked [person] [who] prolongs in evil his.
لَا تَكُنْ بَارًّا كَثِيرًا، وَلَا تَكُنْ حَكِيمًا بِزِيَادَةٍ. لِمَاذَا تَخْرِبُ نَفْسَكَ؟ ١٦ 16
May not you be righteous greatly and may not you make yourself wise excess why? will you destroy yourself.
لَا تَكُنْ شِرِّيرًا كَثِيرًا، وَلَا تَكُنْ جَاهِلًا. لِمَاذَا تَمُوتُ فِي غَيْرِ وَقْتِكَ؟ ١٧ 17
May not you be wicked greatly and may not you be a fool why? will you die at not time your.
حَسَنٌ أَنْ تَتَمَسَّكَ بِهَذَا، وَأَيْضًا أَنْ لَا تَرْخِيَ يَدَكَ عَنْ ذَاكَ، لِأَنَّ مُتَّقِيَ ٱللهِ يَخْرُجُ مِنْهُمَا كِلَيْهِمَا. ١٨ 18
[is] good That you will take hold on this and also from this may not you give rest to hand your for [one] fearing God he will go out all of them.
اَلْحِكْمَةُ تُقَوِّي ٱلْحَكِيمَ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ عَشَرَةِ مُسَلَّطِينَ، ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ. ١٩ 19
Wisdom it gives strength to the wise [person] more than ten rulers who they are in the city.
لِأَنَّهُ لَا إِنْسَانٌ صِدِّيقٌ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ يَعْمَلُ صَلَاحًا وَلَا يُخْطِئُ. ٢٠ 20
For a person there not [is] righteous [person] on the earth who he does good and not he sins.
أَيْضًا لَا تَضَعْ قَلْبَكَ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْكَلَامِ ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ، لِئَلَّا تَسْمَعَ عَبْدَكَ يَسِبُّكَ. ٢١ 21
Also to all the words which people speak may not you give heart your that not you will hear servant your cursing you.
لِأَنَّ قَلْبَكَ أَيْضًا يَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ كَذَلِكَ مِرَارًا كَثِيرَةً سَبَبْتَ آخَرِينَ. ٢٢ 22
For also times many it knows heart your that also (you *QK) you have cursed others.
كُلُّ هَذَا ٱمْتَحَنْتُهُ بِٱلْحِكْمَةِ. قُلْتُ: «أَكُونُ حَكِيمًا». أَمَّا هِيَ فَبَعِيدَةٌ عَنِّي. ٢٣ 23
All this I have put to [the] test by wisdom I said let me be wise and it [was] far from me.
بَعِيدٌ مَا كَانَ بَعِيدًا، وَٱلْعَمِيقُ ٱلْعَمِيقُ مَنْ يَجِدُهُ؟ ٢٤ 24
[is] far away Whatever [that] which has been and deep - deep who? will he find out it.
دُرْتُ أَنَا وَقَلْبِي لِأَعْلَمَ وَلِأَبْحَثَ وَلِأَطْلُبَ حِكْمَةً وَعَقْلًا، وَلِأَعْرِفَ ٱلشَّرَّ أَنَّهُ جَهَالَةٌ، وَٱلْحَمَاقَةَ أَنَّهَا جُنُونٌ. ٢٥ 25
I turned I heart my to know and to examine and to seek wisdom and an explanation and to know wickedness stupidity and the folly madness.
فَوَجَدْتُ أَمَرَّ مِنَ ٱلْمَوْتِ: ٱلْمَرْأَةَ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ شِبَاكٌ، وَقَلْبُهَا أَشْرَاكٌ، وَيَدَاهَا قُيُودٌ. ٱلصَّالِحُ قُدَّامَ ٱللهِ يَنْجُو مِنْهَا. أَمَّا ٱلْخَاطِئُ فَيُؤْخَذُ بِهَا. ٢٦ 26
And [was] finding I bitter more than death the woman who she [is] snares and [is] nets heart her [are] fetters hands her a [person] good before God he escapes from her and a sinner he is captured by her.
اُنْظُرْ. هَذَا وَجَدْتُهُ، قَالَ ٱلْجَامِعَةُ: وَاحِدَةً فَوَاحِدَةً لِأَجِدَ ٱلنَّتِيجَةَ ٢٧ 27
Consider this I have found she said Teacher one to one to find an explanation.
ٱلَّتِي لَمْ تَزَلْ نَفْسِي تَطْلُبُهَا فَلَمْ أَجِدْهَا. رَجُلًا وَاحِدًا بَيْنَ أَلْفٍ وَجَدْتُ، أَمَّا ٱمْرَأَةً فَبَيْنَ كُلِّ أُولَئِكَ لَمْ أَجِدْ! ٢٨ 28
Which again it has sought self my and not I have found a man one of a thousand I have found and a woman among all these not I have found.
اُنْظُرْ. هَذَا وَجَدْتُ فَقَطْ: أَنَّ ٱللهَ صَنَعَ ٱلْإِنْسَانَ مُسْتَقِيمًا، أَمَّا هُمْ فَطَلَبُوا ٱخْتِرَاعَاتٍ كَثِيرَةً. ٢٩ 29
Only consider this I have found that he made God humankind upright and they they have sought schemes many.
