1A false balance is an abomination to Yahweh, but accurate weights are his delight.
1Kafaddii khiyaano ah Rabbigu aad buu u karhaa, Laakiinse dhagaxii miisaanka oo xaq ah wuu ku farxaa.
2When pride comes, then comes shame, but with humility comes wisdom.
2Markuu kibir yimaado, waxaa timaada ceeb; Laakiinse xigmaddu waxay la jirtaa kuwa is-hoosaysiiya.
3The integrity of the upright shall guide them, but the perverseness of the treacherous shall destroy them.
3Kuwa qumman waxaa kaxayn doonta daacadnimadooda, Laakiinse khaayinnada qalloocnaantoodu waa baabbi'in doontaa iyaga.
4Riches don’t profit in the day of wrath, but righteousness delivers from death.
4Maalinta cadhada maal faa'iido ma leh, Laakiinse xaqnimada ayaa dhimasho kaa samatabbixisa.
5The righteousness of the blameless will direct his way, but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.
5Ninkii kaamil ah xaqnimadiisu jidkiisay toosisaa, Laakiinse kan sharka lahu wuxuu ku kufi doonaa sharkiisa.
6The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them, but the unfaithful will be trapped by evil desires.
6Kuwa qumman xaqnimadoodaa samatabbixin doonta, Laakiinse khaayinnada waxaa qabsan doona damacooda xun.
7When a wicked man dies, hope perishes, and expectation of power comes to nothing.
7Nin shar lahu markuu dhinto, wuxuu filanayay way baabbi'i doontaa, Oo xumaanfalayaasha rajadooduna way baabba'daa.
8A righteous person is delivered out of trouble, and the wicked takes his place.
8Kii xaq ah waxaa laga samatabbixiyaa dhibaato, Oo meeshiisana waxaa yimaada kii shar leh.
9With his mouth the godless man destroys his neighbor, but the righteous will be delivered through knowledge.
9Labawejiilahu afkiisuu deriskiisa ku halligaa, Laakiinse kan xaqa ahu aqoon buu ku samatabbixi doonaa.
10When it goes well with the righteous, the city rejoices. When the wicked perish, there is shouting.
10Kuwa xaqa ahu markay barwaaqoobaan, magaaladu way rayraysaa, Laakiin kuwa sharka lahu markay halligmaan farax baa lagu dhawaaqaa.
11By the blessing of the upright, the city is exalted, but it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.
11Kuwa qumman ducadooda magaaladu sare bay ugu kacdaa, Laakiinse kuwa sharka leh afkoodu magaaladuu dumiyaa.
12One who despises his neighbor is void of wisdom, but a man of understanding holds his peace.
12Kii deriskiisa quudhsadaa waa caqli daranyahay, Laakiinse ninkii garaadka lahu wuu iska aamusaa.
13One who brings gossip betrays a confidence, but one who is of a trustworthy spirit is one who keeps a secret.
13Kii sida mid xan badan u warwareegaa wuxuu daaha ka qaadaa waxyaalo qarsoon, Laakiinse kii ruuxiisu aamin yahay xaalkuu qariyaa.
14Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls, but in the multitude of counselors there is victory.
14Markaanay talo jirin, dadku waa dhacaa, Laakiinse taliyayaasha badnaantoodu waxay leedahay nabadgelyo.
15He who is collateral for a stranger will suffer for it, but he who refuses pledges of collateral is secure.
15Kii qof qalaad dammiintaa, xumaan buu ka helaa, Laakiinse kii dammiinashada necebu ammaan buu u fadhiyaa.
16A gracious woman obtains honor, but violent men obtain riches.
16Naag nimcaysan sharaf bay haysataa, Oo niman xoog lahuna maal bay haystaan.
17The merciful man does good to his own soul, but he who is cruel troubles his own flesh.
17Ninkii naxariis badanu naftiisuu wanaag u sameeyaa, Laakiinse kii aan naxariis lahaynu jidhkiisuu dhibaa.
18Wicked people earn deceitful wages, but one who sows righteousness reaps a sure reward.
18Kan sharka lahu wuxuu shaqaystaa mushahaaro khiyaano miidhan ah, Laakiinse kii xaqnimada beeraa wuxuu heli doonaa abaalgud la hubo.
19He who is truly righteous gets life. He who pursues evil gets death.
19Xaqnimadu waxay u kacdaa xagga nolosha, Sidaas oo kalena kii sharka raacaa wuxuu u raacaa dhimashadiisa.
20Those who are perverse in heart are an abomination to Yahweh, but those whose ways are blameless are his delight.
20Kuwa qalbigoodu qalloocan yahay Rabbigu aad buu u karhaa; Laakiinse kuwa jidkooda ku qumman wuu ku farxaa.
21Most certainly, the evil man will not be unpunished, but the seed of the righteous will be delivered.
21Waxaan aad idiinku xaqiijinayaa inaan kan sharka lahu taqsiirla'aan doonayn. Laakiinse farcanka kuwa xaqa ah waa la samatabbixin doonaa.
22Like a gold ring in a pig’s snout, is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
22Naag qurux badan oo aan digtoonaan lahaynu Waa sida dahab gafuurka doofaarka ku jira.
23The desire of the righteous is only good. The expectation of the wicked is wrath.
23Kuwa xaqa ah waxay doonayaan wanaag keliya, Laakiinse kuwa sharka ah filashadoodu waa cadho.
24There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty.
24Waxaa jira mid wax firdhiya, oo haddana sii korodhsada; Oo waxaa jira mid ceshada wax ka sii badan in ku habboon, oo haddana sii caydhooba.
25The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself.
25Qofkii deeqsi ah baa la barwaaqaysiin doonaa, Oo kii wax waraabiyana, isna waa la waraabin doonaa.
26People curse someone who withholds grain, but blessing will be on the head of him who sells it.
26Kii hadhuudh ceshada, dadka ayaa habaari doona, Laakiinse kii iibiya, duco ayaa ku dhici doonta.
27He who diligently seeks good seeks favor, but he who searches after evil, it shall come to him.
27Kii wanaag aad u doonaa wuxuu doonayaa raallinimo, Laakiinse kii xumaan doona, way u iman doontaa.
28He who trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous shall flourish as the green leaf.
28Kii maalkiisa isku halleeyaa wuu dhici doonaa, Laakiinse kii xaq ahu wuxuu u barwaaqoobi doonaa sida caleen cagaar ah.
29He who troubles his own house shall inherit the wind. The foolish shall be servant to the wise of heart.
29Kii gurigiisa dhibaa dabayshu dhaxli doonaa, Oo nacaskuna wuxuu midiidin u ahaan doonaa kan qalbigiisu caqliga leeyahay.
30The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life. He who is wise wins souls.
30Kan xaqa ah midhihiisu waa geed nololeed, Oo kii nafo soo hanuuniyaana caqli buu leeyahay.Bal eega, kan xaqa ahu abaalkiisuu dhulka ku heli doonaa, Haddaba immisa abaalgud oo ka sii badan bay heli doonaan kan sharka leh iyo dembiluhu.
31Behold, the righteous shall be repaid in the earth; how much more the wicked and the sinner!
31Bal eega, kan xaqa ahu abaalkiisuu dhulka ku heli doonaa, Haddaba immisa abaalgud oo ka sii badan bay heli doonaan kan sharka leh iyo dembiluhu.
