Ayuub 15
1 Markaasaa Eliifas kii reer Teemaan isagii u jawaabay, oo wuxuu ku yidhi,
Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,
2 War nin xigmad lahu miyuu ku jawaabaa aqoon aan waxba tarayn, Oo bal miyuu calooshiisa ka buuxiyaa dabaysha bari?
“Should a wise man answer with useless knowledge and fill himself with the east wind?
3 Miyayse ku habboon tahay inuu ku xaajowdo hadal aan faa'iido lahayn, Amase hadallo uusan innaba wanaag ku samayn karin?
Should he reason with unprofitable talk or with speeches with which he can do no good?
4 Cabsida waad baabbi'isaa, Oo cibaadadana Ilaah hortiisa waad ka joojisaa.
Indeed, you diminish respect for God; you obstruct devotion to him,
5 Waayo, afkaaga waxaa wax bara xumaantaada, Oo waxaad doorataa carrabka khaa'inka.
for your iniquity teaches your mouth; you choose to have the tongue of a crafty man.
6 Haddaba waxaa ku xukuma afkaaga oo aniga ma aha; Hubaal bushimahaaga qudhooda ayaa kugu marag fura.
Your own mouth condemns you, not mine; indeed, your own lips testify against you.
7 War ma ninkii binu-aadmiga ugu hor dhashaad tahay? Mase buuraha hortood baad soo dhalatay?
Are you the first man that was born? Were you brought into existence before the hills?
8 War talada qarsoon oo Ilaah miyaad maqashay? Oo nafsaddaada miyaad xigmad ula hadhay?
Have you heard the secret knowledge of God? Do you limit wisdom to yourself?
9 War maxaad og tahay, oo aannan annagu ogayn? Oo bal maxaad garanaysaa, oo aannan garanayn?
What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that is not also in us?
10 Waxaa nala jooga rag cirro leh iyo odayaal da' weyn, Oo aabbahaa ka sii fil weyn.
With us are both the gray-headed and the very aged men who are much older than your father.
11 Ma kugu yar yihiin qalbiqabowjiska Ilaah Iyo erayga sida qabow kuula macaamiloodaa?
Are the consolations of God too small for you, the words that are gentle toward you?
12 Bal maxaa qalbigaagu kuu fogeeyaa? Maxaase indhahaagu u gabgab leeyihiin?
Why does your heart carry you away? Why do your eyes flash,
13 Oo aad ruuxaaga Ilaah ugu soo jeedisaa, Oo erayo caynkaas ah aad afkaaga uga soo daysaa?
so that you turn your spirit against God and bring out such words from your mouth?
14 Bal binu-aadmigu muxuu yahay oo uu daahir ahaado? Kii naagu dhashayse muxuu yahay oo uu xaq ahaado?
What is man that he should be clean? What is he who is born of a woman that he should be righteous?
15 Bal eeg, Ilaah ma aamino kuwiisa quduuska ah, Oo xataa samooyinku hortiisa daahir kuma aha.
See, God puts no trust even in his holy ones; indeed, the heavens are not clean in his sight;
16 Haddaba bal sidee buu u daahir ahaanayaa nin karaahiyo iyo wasakhaan ah, Oo dembiga sida biyo u cabbaa!
how much less clean is one who is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks iniquity like water!
17 Bal i maqal, wax baan ku tusayaa, Oo wixii aan arkay oo dhan waan kuu sheegayaa;
I will show you; listen to me; I will announce to you the things I have seen,
18 (Kuwaasoo rag xigmad lahu ay awowayaashood ka heleen, Oo ayan qarin,
the things that wise men have passed down from their fathers, the things that their ancestors did not hide.
19 Kuwaasoo dalka keligood la siiyey, Oo uusan shisheeye innaba dhex mari jirin.)
These were their ancestors, to whom alone the land was given, and among whom no stranger ever passed.
20 Ninkii shar ahu sida naag u foolato oo kale ayuu u xanuunsadaa cimrigiisa oo dhan, Intaas oo ah sannadihii loo kaydiyey kuwa wax dulma.
The wicked man twists in pain all his days, the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor to suffer.
21 Oo sanqadh cabsi leh ayaa dhegihiisa gasha, Oo wakhtiga barwaaqadana baabbi'iyuhu waa u soo iman doonaa.
A sound of terrors is in his ears; while he is in prosperity, the destroyer will come upon him.
22 Isagu ma rumaysto inuu gudcurka ka noqon doono, Iyo inay seeftu isaga sugayso.
He does not think that he will return out of darkness; the sword waits for him.
23 Meel meel buu cunto u wareegaa isagoo leh, Meeday? Oo wuxuu og yahay inay maalinta gudcurku isaga u diyaar tahay.
He goes to various places for bread, saying, 'Where is it?' He knows that the day of darkness is at hand.
24 Waxaa isaga bajiya dhib iyo cidhiidhi, Oo isagay uga adkaadaan sida boqor dagaal isu diyaariyey,
Distress and anguish make him afraid; they prevail against him, as a king ready for battle.
25 Maxaa yeelay, isagu gacantiisuu Ilaah ku taagay, Oo Ilaaha Qaadirka ah kibir buu ku caasiyaa.
Because he has reached out with his hand against God and has behaved proudly against the Almighty,
26 Wuxuu kula ordaa madax adag Iyo gaashaammadiisa biro ku taagan yihiin.
this wicked man runs at God with a stiff neck, with a thick shield.
27 Maxaa yeelay, wejiga ayuu ka cayilay, Oo bowdooyinkana baruur buu ku yeeshay,
This is true, even though he has covered his face with his fat and gathered fat on his loins,
28 Oo wuxuu degay magaalooyin baabba' ah, Iyo guryo aan lagu hoyan, Oo u diyaarsan inay tuulmooyin burbur ah noqdaan.
and has lived in desolate cities; in houses which no man inhabits now and which were ready to become heaps.
29 Isagu taajir noqon maayo, oo maalkiisuna sii raagi maayo, Oo dhulkana ku sii waari maayo.
He will not be rich; his wealth will not last and his possessions will not spread over the land.
30 Isagu marnaba gudcur ka bixi maayo, Oo laamihiisa olol baa qallajin doona, Oo neefta afkiisa ayaa qaadi doonta.
He will not depart out of darkness; a flame will dry up his stalks; at the breath of God's mouth he will go away.
31 Yuusan wax aan waxba tarayn isku hallayn, isagoo iskhiyaaneeya, Waayo, wax aan waxba tarayn ayaa abaalgudkiisa ahaan doona.
Let him not trust in useless things, deceiving himself; for uselessness will be his reward.
32 Wakhtigiisii ka hor buu dhammaan doonaa, Oo laantiisuna ma cagaaroobi doonto.
It will happen before his time should come to die; his branch will not be green.
33 Sida canabka ayuu midhihiisa ceedhiin iska ridi doonaa, Oo sida saytuunka ayuu ubaxiisa iska daadin doonaa.
He will drop his unripe grapes like a grapevine; he will cast off his flowers like the olive tree.
34 Waayo, ururka cibaadalaawayaashu wuxuu ahaan doonaa wax aan waxba dhalin, Oo teendhooyinka kuwa laaluushka qaatana dab baa baabbi'in doona.
For the company of godless people will be barren; fire will consume their tents of bribery.
35 Iyagu waxay uuraystaan belaayo, xumaanna way dhalaan, Oo calooshooduna waxay diyaarisaa khiyaano.
They conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity; their womb conceives deceit.”
