¹Oo weliba Eliihuu wuu jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi,

¹Moreover Elihu answered and said,

²Raggiinna xigmadda lahow, erayadayda maqla; Oo kuwiinna aqoonta lahow, i dhegaysta.

²Hear my words, ye wise [men]; and give ear unto me, ye that have knowledge.

³Waayo, dhegtu waxay hadalka u kala soocdaa Sida dhabxanaggu cuntada u dhedhemiyo oo kale.

³For the ear trieth words, as the palate tasteth food.

⁴Aynu dooranno waxa qumman, Oo aynu dhexdeenna ka ogaanno waxa wanaagsan.

⁴Let us choose for ourselves what is right; let us know among ourselves what is good!

⁵Waayo, Ayuub wuxuu yidhi, Anigu xaq baan ahay, Laakiinse Ilaah baa gartaydii ii diiday.

⁵For Job hath said, I am righteous, and ùGod hath taken away my judgment:

⁶Oo in kastoo aan xaq ahay haddana waxaa laygu tiriyey inaan beenlow ahay; Oo in kastoo aanan xadgudub lahayn, haddana nabarkaygu waa mid aan bogsan karin.

⁶Should I lie against my right? My wound is incurable without transgression.

⁷Ninkee baa Ayuub la mid ah, Oo quudhsashada u cabba sida biyaha oo kale,

⁷What man is like Job? he drinketh up scorning like water,

⁸kaasoo raaca kuwa xumaanta ka shaqeeya, Oo dadka sharka ah la socda?

⁸And goeth in company with workers of iniquity, and walketh with wicked men.

⁹Waayo, isagu wuxuu yidhi, Ninna wax uma tarto Inuu Ilaah ku farxo.

⁹For he hath said, It profiteth not a man if he delight himself in God.

¹⁰Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed i dhegaysta, raggiinna waxgaradka ahow; Ilaah inuu xaqdarro sameeyo way ka fog tahay; Oo Ilaaha Qaadirka ahna inuu xumaan falo way ka fog tahay.

¹⁰Therefore hearken unto me, ye men of understanding: Far be wickedness from ùGod, and wrong from the Almighty!

¹¹Waayo, nin walba shuqulkiisuu ka abaal mariyaa, Oo nin kastana siduu socodkiisu ahaa ayuu ugu abaal gudaa.

¹¹For a man's work will he render to him, and cause every one to find according to [his] way.

¹²Laakiinse hubaal Ilaah xaqdarro ma uu samayn doono, Oo Kan Qaadirka ahuna garta ma uu qalloocin doono.

¹²Yea, surely, ùGod acteth not wickedly, and the Almighty perverteth not judgment.

¹³Bal yaa isaga ku amray inuu dhulka u taliyo? Yaase isaga dusha ka saaray dunida oo dhan?

¹³Who hath entrusted to him the earth? and who hath disposed the whole world?

¹⁴Hadduu keligiis iska fikiri lahaa, Oo uu ruuxiisa iyo neeftiisa soo urursan lahaa,

¹⁴If he only thought of himself, [and] gathered unto him his spirit and his breath,

¹⁵Dadka oo dhammu waa wada baabbi'i lahaa, Oo binu-aadmiguna ciidduu ku noqon lahaa.

¹⁵All flesh would expire together, and man would return to the dust.

¹⁶Haddaba haddaad waxgarad tahay, waxan maqal; Oo erayadayda codkooda dhegayso.

¹⁶If now [thou hast] understanding, hear this: give ear to the voice of my words!

¹⁷War mid xaqnimada neceb miyuu wax u talinayaa? Oo ma waxaad xukumaysaa midka xaqa ah oo xoogga badan?

¹⁷Should he that hateth right indeed govern? and wilt thou condemn the All-just?

¹⁸Ma waxaa boqor lagu yidhaahdaa, Shar baad tahay? Amase kuwa gobta ah, Cibaadalaawayaal baad tihiin?

¹⁸Shall one say to a king, Belial? to nobles, Wicked?

¹⁹Haddaba ma saasaad ku odhan lahayd kan aan amiirrada u eexan, Ama aan taajirka uga roonayn kan miskiinka ah? Waayo, iyagu dhammaantood waa shuqulkii gacmihiisu sameeyeen.

¹⁹[How then to him] that accepteth not the persons of princes, nor regardeth the rich man more than the poor? for they are all the work of his hands.

²⁰Iyagu daqiiqad bay ku dhintaan, Dadku habeenbadhkiiba way gariiraan oo naftaa ka baxda, Kuwa xoogga badanuna way libdhaan iyadoo aan gacanna la saarin.

²⁰In a moment they die, even at midnight the people are convulsed and pass away; and the strong are taken away without hand.

²¹Waayo, indhihiisu waxay fiiriyaan jidadka binu-aadmiga, Wuxuuna wada arkaa socodkiisa oo dhan.

²¹For his eyes are upon the ways of man, and he seeth all his steps.

²²Ma jiro gudcur ama hoosdhimasho toona Oo ay kuwa xumaanta sameeyaa ku dhuuntaan.

²²There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.

²³Waayo, isagu uma baahna inuu in kale binu-aadmiga ka sii fikiro, Inuu isagu Ilaah hortiisa garsoorid u tago.

²³For he doth not long consider a man, to bring him before ùGod in judgment.

²⁴Ragga xoogga badan ayuu u kala jejebiyaa siyaalo aan la baadhi karin, Oo meeshoodiina kuwa kaluu ka kiciyaa.

²⁴He breaketh in pieces mighty men without inquiry, and setteth others in their stead;

²⁵Maxaa yeelay, isagu shuqulladooda wuu yaqaan; Oo habeennimuu afgembiyaa si ay u burburaan.

²⁵Since he knoweth their actions; and he overthroweth [them] in the night, and they are crushed.

²⁶Sharkooda daraaddiis ayuu iyaga wax ku dhuftaa, Iyagoo dadka kale u jeedo,

²⁶He striketh them as wicked men in the open sight of others,

²⁷Maxaa yeelay, lasocodkiisii way ka leexdeen, Oo waxay diideen inay jidadkiisa midnaba ka fikiraan.

²⁷Because they have turned back from him, and would consider none of his ways;

²⁸Sidaasay qaylada masaakiinta isaga soo gaadhsiiyeen, Oo isna qaylada kuwa dhibaataysan ayuu maqlay.

²⁸So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto him, and he heareth the cry of the afflicted.

²⁹Haddii quruun lagu sameeyo iyo haddii qof lagu sameeyaba, Markuu nasiyo yaa belaayo kicin kara? Oo markuu wejigiisa qariyana bal yaa isaga fiirin kara?

²⁹When he giveth quietness, who then will disturb? and when he hideth [his] face, who shall behold him? and this towards a nation, or towards a man alike;

³⁰Inaan cibaadalaawe boqornimada qabsan, Si uusan u jirin mid dadka shirqool u dhiga.

³⁰That the ungodly man reign not, that the people be not ensnared.

³¹Waayo, ninna miyuu Ilaah ku yidhi, Anigu edbintii waan qaatay, oo mar dambe ninna xumayn maayo,

³¹For hath he said unto ùGod, I bear [chastisement], I will not offend;

³²Haddaba waxaanan u jeedin i bar, Oo haddaan xumaan sameeyeyna mar dambe u noqon maayo?

³²What I see not, teach thou me; if I have done wrong, I will do so no more?

³³Abaalgudkiisu ma wuxuu ahaan doonaa sidaad doonaysid, inaad diiddid aawadeed? Waayo, waa inaad adigu doorataa, mana aha aniga; Haddaba waxaad taqaanid ku hadal.

³³Shall he recompense according to thy mind? for thou hast refused [his judgment]; for thou so choosest, and not I; speak then what thou knowest.

³⁴Nin kasta oo xigmad leh oo i maqla iyo dadka waxgaradka ahuba Waxay igu odhan doonaan,

³⁴Men of understanding will say to me, and a wise man who heareth me:

³⁵Ayuub aqoonla'aan buu ku hadlaa, Oo hadalkiisana xigmadu kuma jirto.

³⁵Job hath spoken without knowledge, and his words were not with intelligence.

³⁶Waxaan jeclaan lahaa in Ayuub tan iyo ugudambaysta la sii imtixaamo, Maxaa yeelay, wuxuu u jawaabaa sida dadka sharka ah.Waayo, dembigiisii wuxuu ku sii darsadaa caasinimo, Oo dhexdeenna ayuu ka sacab tuntaa, Erayadiisana wuxuu ku sii badiyaa Ilaah.

³⁶Would that Job may be tried unto the end, because of [his] answers after the manner of evil men!

³⁷Waayo, dembigiisii wuxuu ku sii darsadaa caasinimo, Oo dhexdeenna ayuu ka sacab tuntaa, Erayadiisana wuxuu ku sii badiyaa Ilaah.

³⁷For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth [his hands] among us, and multiplieth his words against ùGod.
