< Proverbs 3 >

1 [My] son, forget not my laws; but let your heart keep my words:
Wiilkaygiiyow, waxbariddayda ha illoobin, Laakiin qalbigaagu amarradayda ha hayo,
2 for length of existence, and years of life, and peace, shall they add to you.
Waayo, iyagu waxay kuu kordhin doonaan Maalmo badan iyo cimri dheer iyo nabad.
3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you; but bind them about your neck:
Naxariista iyo runtu yaanay kaa tegin, Iyaga qoorta ku xidh, Oo looxa qalbigaaga ku qor,
4 so shall you find favor: and do you provide things honest in the sight of the Lord, and of men.
Sidaasaad Ilaah iyo dadka hortooda Nicmo iyo sharaf uga heli doontaa.
5 Trust in God with all your heart; and be not exalted in your own wisdom.
Qalbigaaga dhammaantii Rabbiga ku aamin, Oo waxgarashadaadana ha isku hallayn.
6 In all your ways acquaint yourself with her, that she may rightly direct your paths.
Jidadkaaga oo dhan isaga ku qiro, Oo isna waddooyinkaaguu toosin doonaa.
7 Be not wise in your own conceit; but fear God, and depart from all evil.
Ha isla weynaan; Rabbiga ka cabso; oo sharka ka fogow.
8 Then shall there be health to your body, and good keeping to your bones.
Taasu waxay xundhurtaada u noqon doontaa caafimaad, Oo lafahaagana waxay u noqon doontaa dhuux.
9 Honor the Lord with your just labors, and give him the first of your fruits of righteousness:
Rabbiga ku murwee maalkaaga Iyo midhaha ugu horreeya waxa kuu kordha oo dhan;
10 that your storehouses may be completely filled with corn, and that your presses may burst forth with wine.
Sidaasay maqsinnadaadu barwaaqo uga buuxsami doonaan, Macsarooyinkaaguna waxay la buuxdhaafi doonaan khamri cusub.
11 [My] son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; nor faint when you are rebuked of him:
Wiilkaygiiyow, Rabbiga edbintiisa ha quudhsan, Oo canaantiisana ha ka daalin,
12 for whom the Lord loves, he rebukes, and scourges every son whom he receives.
Waayo, Rabbigu ninkuu jecel yahay wuu canaantaa Sida aabbe u canaanto wiilkii uu ku faraxsan yahay.
13 Blessed is the man who has found wisdom, and the mortal who knows prudence.
Waxaa barakaysan ninkii xigmadda hela, Iyo ninkii waxgarashada mulkiya.
14 For it is better to traffic for her, than for treasures of gold and silver.
Waayo, baayacmushtarigeedu waa ka sii wanaagsan yahay baayacmushtariga lacagta, Oo faa'iidadeeduna waa ka sii wanaagsan tahay dahabka saafiga ah.
15 And she is more valuable than precious stones: no evil thing shall resist her: she is well known to all that approach her, and no precious thing is equal to her in value.
Way ka sii qaalisan tahay luulka, Oo waxaad jeclaan kartid oo dhanna iyada lalama simo.
16 For length of existence and years of life are in her right hand; and in her left hand are wealth and glory: out of her mouth proceeds righteousness, and she carries law and mercy upon her tongue.
Gacanteeda midig waxaa ku jira cimri dheeri; Gacanteeda bidixna waxaa ku jira hodonnimo iyo sharaf.
17 Her ways are good ways, and all her paths are peaceful.
Jidadkeedu waa jidad farxadeed, Oo waddooyinkeeda oo dhammuna waa nabad.
18 She is a tree of life to all that lay hold upon her; and she is [a] secure [help] to all that stay themselves on her, as on the Lord.
Kuwii iyada qabsada waxay u tahay geed nololeed; Oo waxaa barakaysan ku alla kii iyada xajista.
19 God by wisdom founded the earth, and by prudence he prepared the heavens.
Rabbigu wuxuu dhulka ku aasaasay xigmadda, Oo samooyinkana wuxuu ku dhisay waxgarashada.
20 By understanding were the depths broken up, and the clouds dropped water.
Aqoontiisa ayaa moolalku ku dillaaceen, Oo cirkuna wuxuu soo daadiyaa sayax.
21 [My] son, let [them] not pass from [you], but keep my counsel and understanding:
Wiilkaygiiyow, waxyaalahanu yaanay indhahaaga ka tegin. Xigmadda iyo digtoonaanta xajiso.
22 that your soul may live, and that there may be grace round your neck; and it shall be health to your flesh, and safety to your bones:
Sidaasay naftaada nolol ugu noqon doonaan, Qoortaadana nimco.
23 that you may go confidently in peace in all your ways, and that your foot may not stumble.
Markaasaad jidkaaga ammaan ku mari doontaa, Oo cagtaaduna ma turunturoon doonto.
24 For if you rest, you shall be undismayed; and if you sleep, you shall slumber sweetly.
Markaad jiifsatidna ma cabsan doontid; Haah, waad jiifsan doontaa, oo hurdadaaduna way kuu macaanaan doontaa.
25 And you shall not be afraid of alarm coming upon you, neither of approaching attacks of ungodly men.
Ha ka baqin cabsi kedis ah, Iyo baabbi'inta kuwa sharka leh toona markii ay timaado.
26 For the Lord shall be over all your ways, and shall establish your foot that you be not moved.
Waayo, Rabbigu wuxuu kuu ahaan doonaa Kan aad ku kalsoonaan karto. Oo cagtaadana wuu dhawri doonaa si aan loo qabsan.
27 Forbear not to do good to the poor, whenever your hand may have [power] to help [him].
Wanaag ha u diidin kuwa uu ku habboon yahay in loo sameeyo, Markaad awood u leedahay inaad u samayso.
28 Say not, Come back another time, to-morrow I will give; while you are able to do [him] good: for you know not what the next day will bring forth.
Deriskaaga ha ku odhan, Tag oo soo noqo, Berri baan ku siin doonaaye, Haddii aad markaas haysid.
29 Devise not evil against your friend, living near you and trusting in you.
Deriskaaga innaba xumaan ha u fikirin, Maxaa yeelay, isagu nabadgelyo buu kuu ag fadhiyaa.
30 Be not ready to quarrel with a man without a cause, lest he do you some harm.
Ninna sababla'aan ha kula diririn, Haddaanu xumaan kugu samayn.
31 Procure not the reproaches of bad men, neither do you covet their ways.
Ha ka hinaasin nin dadka dulmiya, Oo jidadkiisana midnaba ha dooran.
32 For every transgressor is unclean before the Lord; neither does he sit among the righteous.
Maxaa yeelay, kuwa qalloocanu waa u karaahiyo Rabbiga, Laakiinse wuxuu sir la leeyahay kuwa qumman.
33 The curse of God is in the houses of the ungodly; but the habitations of the just are blessed.
Rabbigu wuxuu inkaaraa guriga kii shar leh, Laakiinse rugta kuwa xaqa ah wuu barakeeyaa.
34 The Lord resists the proud; but he gives grace to the humble.
Hubaal kuwa wax quudhsada ayuu isagu quudhsadaa, Kuwa is-hoosaysiiyase nicmuu siiyaa.
35 The wise shall inherit glory; but the ungodly have exalted [their own] dishonor.
Kuwa xigmadda leh waxay dhaxli doonaan sharaf, Laakiinse nacasyadu waxay u dallici doonaan ceeb.
