< Ayuub 6 >

1 Markaasaa Ayuub jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi,
But Job answered and said,
2 Hahe haddii dhibkayga la miisaami lahaa, Oo masiibadayda kafado la wada saari lahaa!
Oh that my grief were throughly weighed, and my calamity laid in the balances together!
3 Wuu ka sii cuslaan lahaa cammuudda badaha, Sidaas daraaddeed hadalkaygii degdeg buu noqday.
For now it would be heavier than the sand of the sea: therefore my words are swallowed up.
4 Waayo, Ilaaha Qaadirka ah fallaadhihiisii ayaa igu dhex jira, Oo naftayduna waabaydoodii way cabbaysaa, Oo Ilaah cabsiintiisiina anigay igu soo kacdaa.
For the arrows of the Almighty [are] within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.
5 Dameerdibadeedku miyuu ciyaa markuu caws haysto? Dibiguse miyuu ciyaa markii cunto la siiyo?
Doth the wild ass bray when he hath grass? or loweth the ox over his fodder?
6 Wixii aan dhadhan lahayn miyaa cusbola'aan la cuni karaa? Ukunta xabkeeduse miyuu dhadhan leeyahay?
Can that which is unsavoury be eaten without salt? or is there [any] taste in the white of an egg?
7 Naftaydu way diidaa inay taabato, Waxay ii yihiin sida cunto la naco oo kale.
The things [that] my soul refused to touch [are] as my sorrowful meat.
8 Hahe bal maan helo waxa aan u baryootamo, Oo Ilaah bal muu i siiyo waxa aan u xiisoodo!
Oh that I might have my request; and that God would grant [me] the thing that I long for!
9 Oo xataa Ilaah bal muu iska jeclaado inuu i burburiyo, Oo bal muu gacantiisa iga sii daayo oo i baabbi'iyo!
Even that it would please God to destroy me; that he would let loose his hand, and cut me off!
10 Markaas waan istareexi lahaaye, Oo waxaan u adkaysan lahaa xanuun aan ii tudhayn, Waayo, ma aanan diidin Kan Quduuska ah erayadiisii.
Then should I yet have comfort; yea, I would harden myself in sorrow: let him not spare; for I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.
11 Bal xooggaygu waa maxay inaan sugo aawadeed? Aakhirkayguse waa maxay inaan dulqaato aawadeed?
What [is] my strength, that I should hope? and what [is] mine end, that I should prolong my life?
12 War xooggaygu ma xoogga dhagaxyada baa? Mise jidhkaygu ma naxaas baa?
[Is] my strength the strength of stones? or [is] my flesh of brass?
13 War sow ma aha inaanan iscaawiyi karayn? Sowse xigmaddu igama fogaan?
[Is] not my help in me? and is wisdom driven quite from me?
14 Kii diyaar u ah inuu qalbi jabo waa in saaxiibkiis u naxariisto Waaba intaasoo uu ka tago cabsida Ilaaha Qaadirka ahe.
To him that is afflicted pity [should be shewed] from his friend; but he forsaketh the fear of the Almighty.
15 Walaalahay waa u khiyaano badnaayeen sida durdur oo kale, Sida biyaha durdurrada ee iska baabba'a,
My brethren have dealt deceitfully as a brook, [and] as the stream of brooks they pass away;
16 Kuwaasoo barafka la madoobaaday, Oo uu barafka cad isku qariyo.
Which are blackish by reason of the ice, [and] wherein the snow is hid:
17 Markay qorraxoodaan way libdhaan, Oo markay kululaadaanna meeshooday ka baabba'aan.
What time they wax warm, they vanish: when it is hot, they are consumed out of their place.
18 Kuwa safraa gees bay uga leexdaan, Waxay u baxaan xagga cidlada oo halkaasay ku dhintaan.
The paths of their way are turned aside; they go to nothing, and perish.
19 Waxaa fiiriyey kuwa Teemaa ka safray, Oo socotooyinkii Shebaa ayaa fishay.
The troops of Tema looked, the companies of Sheba waited for them.
20 Way ceeboobeen, waayo, way rajeeyeen, Halkaasay yimaadeen, oo way hungoobeen.
They were confounded because they had hoped; they came thither, and were ashamed.
21 Waayo, hadda idinku sidaasaad ii noqoteen, Waxaad aragteen belaayo, waanad baqdeen.
For now ye are nothing; ye see [my] casting down, and are afraid.
22 Bal anigu miyaan idhi, Wax i sii? Amase, Maalkaaga hadiyad iiga keen?
Did I say, Bring unto me? or, Give a reward for me of your substance?
23 Amase, Cadowga gacantiisa iga samatabbixi? Amase, Iga furo gacanta kan i dulma?
Or, Deliver me from the enemy’s hand? or, Redeem me from the hand of the mighty?
24 Bal wax i bar, oo anna waan iska aamusayaa; Oo i garansii wixii aan ku qaldamay.
Teach me, and I will hold my tongue: and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.
25 Erayo runu xoog badanaa! Laakiinse bal canaantiinna muranka ahu maxay caddaysaa?
How forcible are right words! but what doth your arguing reprove?
26 Ma waxaad u malaynaysaan inaad erayo canaanataan? Maxaa yeelay, kii quustay hadalkiisu waa sida dabayl oo kale.
Do ye imagine to reprove words, and the speeches of one that is desperate, [which are] as wind?
27 Waxaad saami u ridan lahaydeen maalka agoonta, Oo saaxiibkiinna waad ka faa'iidaysan lahaydeen.
Yea, ye overwhelm the fatherless, and ye dig [a pit] for your friend.
28 Haddaba raalli ahaada oo bal i fiiriya, Waayo, sida runta ah been idiin sheegi maayo.
Now therefore be content, look upon me; for [it is] evident unto you if I lie.
29 Haddaba waan idin baryayaaye iska noqda, yaan caddaaladla'aanu dhicin, Ee mar kale iska noqda, waayo, xaalkaygu waa xaq.
Return, I pray you, let it not be iniquity; yea, return again, my righteousness [is] in it.
30 War ma caddaaladla'aan baa carrabkayga saaran? Mase carrabkaygaan waxyaalo xunxun dhadhamin karin?
Is there iniquity in my tongue? cannot my taste discern perverse things?
