1 Waxaa jira wax xun oo aan qorraxda hoosteeda ku arkay, taasuna waa wax dadka ku culus,
I have seen something [else here] on this earth that troubles people.
2 waana nin Ilaah siiyey maal, iyo hanti, iyo sharaf, oo wax alla wixii naftiisu jeceshahayna aan waxba ka dhinnayn, oo haddana Ilaah isaga aan siin karti uu wax kaga cuno, laakiinse uu shisheeye iska cuno. Taasu waa wax aan waxba tarayn iyo dhibaato xun.
God enables some people to get a lot of money and possessions and to be honored; they have everything [LIT] that they want. But God [sometimes] does not allow them to continue to enjoy those things. Someone else gets them and enjoys them. That seems senseless and unfair.
3 Haddii nin boqol carruur ah dhalo, oo uu sannado badan noolaado si uu u cimri dheeraado, laakiinse ayan naftiisu wax wanaagsan ka dhergin, oo haddana aan la aasin, waxaan leeyahay, Kaas waxaa ka wanaagsan dhicis.
Someone might have 100 children and live for many years. But if he is not able to enjoy the things that he has acquired, and if he is not buried [properly after he dies], [I say that] a child that is dead when it is born is more fortunate.
4 Waayo, dhicisku wax aan waxba tarayn ayuu u yimaadaa, gudcur buuna ku tagaa, oo magiciisana gudcur baa daboola.
That dead baby’s birth is meaningless; it does not even have a name. It goes directly to the place where there is only darkness.
5 Oo weliba qorraxda ma uu arag, mana garan, oo kaasu waa ka sii nasasho badan yahay kii kale.
It does not [live to] see the sun or know anything. But it finds more rest than rich people do [who are alive].
6 In kastoo uu noolaado kun sannadood oo laba jibbaar ah, laakiinse uusan wax wanaagsan ku raaxaysan, sow kulliba isku meel lama wada tago?
Even if people could live for 2,000 years, if they do not enjoy the things that God gives to them, [it would have been better for them never to have been born]. [All people who live a long time] certainly [RHQ] all go to the same place— [to the grave].
7 Nin hawshiisa oo dhan waa u afkiisaa, laakiinse kama hamuun beelo.
People work hard to [earn enough money to buy] food to eat [MTY], but [often] they never get enough to eat.
8 Waayo, bal kii xigmad lahu maxaa faa'iido ah oo uu nacaska dheer yahay? Miskiinkii kuwa nool hortooda si loogu socdo yaqaanse, maxaa faa'iido ah oo uu leeyahay?
So it seems that [RHQ] wise people do not receive more lasting benefits than foolish people do. And it seems that [RHQ] poor people do not benefit from knowing how to conduct their lives.
9 Damac iska wareega waxaa ka wanaagsan indhaha aragtiddooda, taasuna waa wax aan waxba tarayn iyo dabagalka dabaysha oo kale.
It is better to enjoy the things that we already have [MTY] than to constantly want more things; continually wanting more things is [senseless], [like] the wind.
10 Nin waluba wuxuu yahayba waa horaa loo magacaabay, oo waa la garanayaa inuu binu-aadmi yahay, oo lamana uu diriri karo kan isaga ka xoog badan.
All the things that exist [on the earth] have been given names. And everyone knows what people are like, [so] it is useless to argue with someone (OR, with God) who is stronger than we are.
11 Waxaa jira waxyaalo badan oo sii kordhiya waxa aan waxba tarayn, bal maxaa faa'iido ah oo uu binu-aadmigu leeyahay?
The more [that we] talk, the more [often we say things that are] senseless, so it certainly does not [RHQ] benefit us to talk a lot.
12 Waayo, bal yaa garanaya waxa qof u wanaagsan intuu nool yahay oo ah maalmihii cimrigiisa aan waxba tarayn oo dhan ee uu sida hoos oo kale u dhaafiyo? Waayo, bal yaa nin u sheegi kara waxa qorraxda hoosteeda isaga dabadiis ahaan doona?
We live for only a short time; we disappear like [SIM] a shadow disappears [in the sunlight]. No one [RHQ] knows what is best for us while we are alive, and no one [RHQ] knows what will happen to us after we die [EUP].
